Xero Support & Training

There’s so much Xero can do for your business when you fully understand how it works

Are you ready to switch to Xero cloud accounting software?

Xero will transform the way you manage your accounts. It saves you time, gives you flexibility and also reduces the need for endless paper printouts.

 As a Xero certified advisor, rest assured that your Xero software will be installed and Set Up so that you can hit the ground running.

Are you already using Xero but have fallen behind and need some help?

If Xero is neglected, it can become a bit muddled and messy, and that’s not what you want. You want cloud accounting software that keeps you informed with accurate data.

 I can complete a Xero Health Check to find out where the issues lie and make recommendations for what you need to do to get Xero back up and running accurately again.

Have you identified a problem in Xero and now need help sorting it out?

 I can provide you with bespoke Xero training to show you how to fix any issues you have and help you use it to its full potential, helping you get the most for your money.

 You can also ask me to do a complete Xero Clean Up. I’ll fix the problems that the Xero Health Check highlighted and show you how to avoid those issues from arising again.

Xero Set Up

Xero Health Check

£250 plus VAT includes a video recording emailed to you of the findings and recommendations

 

If you’ve been using Xero for a while, it’s important to check it’s working for you. Just like you have an MOT each year, a Xero Health Check can identify any issues before they become costly problems.

Or, you may already be experiencing some issues with Xero. Are you seeing information you know is incorrect? Have you stopped logging in because it isn’t working for you? Again, it makes sense to have a Xero Health Check so you can discover what the problems are.

The health check covers a detailed review and feedback on the following:

  • How Xero, including payroll, has been set up

  • Reconciliation of bank accounts

  • Omissions or inconsistent postings in your profit and loss account

  • Accuracy of the balance sheet control accounts

  • Debtor and supplier balances for payment terms and how they might be affecting your cashflow

  • Correct coding of transactions

  • Chart of account set up

  • Conversion balances

  • Fixed assets record and depreciation


The problem has been found. What do you do next?.

After the health check has been carried out, you then decide if you want to action my recommendations. I offer training and support if you want to deal with the issues yourself, or I can carry out a Xero Clean Up and fix the problems for you.

Xero Clean Up

Bespoke price dependant on Health Check report

 

Once I have completed the Xero Health Check, I’ll provide you with my recommendations, and you can hire me to fix them for you.

The types of areas that businesses generally need help with are:

  • Balance sheet reconciliation

  • Profit and loss account tidy up due to inconsistent postings

  • Dealing with bank reconciliation errors

  • Automatic invoice reminders set up

  • Salary journal postings corrected

  • VAT transactions review

  • Duplicate transactions removed

  • Purchase ledger reconciliation and tidy up.

  • Sales reconciliation and outstanding ones identified

When Xero goes wrong, these things can happen:

  • Your bank account isn’t reconciling

  • It’s showing you outstanding receipts and invoices you know have been paid

  • You’re unsure if sales invoices have been paid

  • The VAT return doesn’t make sense


If you’re finding yourself having to correct more and more mistakes and are unsure if you are doing things correctly, let me help.
