About DeskBoard
Keep client projects, receipts, invoices, ledgers and business records together on your computer. DeskBoard helps small studios and independent businesses follow the work and the money without moving their workspace into a web service.
From client work to money management
Record client work, initial advances and later receipts with paise precision. Configure your money sections and let client receipts allocate automatically. Linked payment IDs keep reloads and invoice creation from duplicating the same receipt. Edit or delete the source receipt to update or reverse its allocation.
Keep each business organized
Business-specific settings and records keep multiple businesses separate. Sales, purchases and expenses retain their separate workflows. Invoices, ledgers and exports help you review the records you entered; this is not an accounting or tax-compliance certification.
Back up on your terms
Export local backups before updates. Optional Google Drive backup requires your own one-time Google Desktop OAuth JSON setup and consent. No Google credentials or customer database are bundled.
Seven-day trial and original paid activation
Download the current installer, copy the device ID and start your seven-day trial from your website account. Paste the issued trial token in the app. Trial expiry keeps your saved data. Purchased licenses use DeskBoard's original device-bound key format, issued manually by studio support after verified payment.
Visible activation controls
Version 4.1.3 adds a License & activation button with status, device ID, website trial registration and purchased-key retrieval. A fresh device requires activation; an existing permanent key is kept, so no repeated prompt appears. The same installer supports trial and paid activation.
Release information

What’s changed
Version 4.1.3
Visible License & activation controls show existing permanent/trial status and device ID. New-device activation links lead to website trial registration and purchased-key retrieval. The same Mac/Windows installer supports signed seven-day trials and original permanent keys; no original validator or business/backup logic changed. Existing valid keys stay active.
Version 4.1.2
Client Work receipts now allocate into configured Money Management sections, including historical receipts. Stable payment IDs avoid duplicate allocations. Editing or deleting receipts updates or reverses their allocations while retaining original section percentages. Client payment inputs preserve paise; source validation rejects incomplete links. Google Sheets exports include linked receipt, project and payment IDs. A local safety copy precedes the first existing-data conversion.
Dedicated trial installers add the website's signed seven-day entitlement and a paid-key upgrade control while preserving the original permanent license validator and the 4.1.2 business/backup modules.
A few useful answers.
What is the offer price?
₹4,000 regular price, now ₹2,000 with 50% off. This is a one-time purchase for one device.
How does the seven-day trial work?
Sign in and download the current installer. Copy the app's device ID, register it on your trials page and paste the issued token into the app. Seven days begin at the first registration. One trial per device and product; reinstalling does not reset it.
Will trial expiry delete my work?
No. Your saved data is retained. Purchase and activate a permanent key to continue on the same device; do not delete your data folders or reinstall to upgrade.
How do I get a permanent key?
After verified payment, send the app's device ID and your order ID to studio support as instructed in your software library. The key is issued manually using DeskBoard's original licensing system.
Does Google Drive work immediately?
Google Drive backup needs one-time setup with your own Google Desktop OAuth JSON and consent. No OAuth credentials are bundled. Local backups remain available without Google setup.
Where are my records stored?
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Desk Board. Windows: %APPDATA%\Desk Board. Export a backup before an update and fully quit the old app; restart Windows before setup.
