Durio

Features

Everything an estate needs from report to final account, in one place.

Reporting the estate

One estate record

Capture the deceased, the marriage, the heirs, executors, assets and liabilities once. Every form reads from the same record.

The Master's forms

J294 death notice, J190 acceptance of trust or J155 undertaking (Durio recommends which from the estate's value), J243 inventory, J192 next-of-kin affidavit, the nomination of an executor, the affidavit and the declaration of marriages.

Matches the official forms

Each form is filled in on the official layout and downloads as a PDF, ready to print and sign.

Still needed

A running list shows what each recommended form still lacks, so nothing goes to the Master incomplete.

Administering the estate

Liquidation and distribution account

Record receipts, payments and transfers per estate bank account. Durio works out the account, the recapitulation and the distribution, and checks the ledger balances.

Bank reconciliation

Tick off postings against statements and see what is still uncleared.

Word, Excel and PDF

Export the account and the working papers to edit or file them.

Gazette notices

The J193 notice to creditors and the J187 notice of the account lying for inspection, filled in for Government Printing Works.

Vehicles and firearms

The NCO for a vehicle, the SAPS 271 for a firearm, and transfer and authorisation letters.
