How does it work?
One of our trainers will work with you to firstly set up your business on Xero. The set up will be done with the requirements of your business in mind and will cover the following areas:
- How many bank accounts does the business have?
- Is there a company credit card?
- Does the business make use of petty cash?
- What accounts will be required in the chart of accounts?
- Is the business a Limited Company?
- Is the business vat registered?
- What is the financial year end for the business?
Once the set up is complete we will then train you how to perform all of the day to day tasks which you will be required to perform in your business (using your own paperwork). These sessions can incorporate one member of staff or a whole department (should your business require this).
