Financial software is specifically designed to automate, assist and store your business’s financial information. It should also handle the storage, analysis, management and processing of financial transactions and records.
This can include categorising income and expenses, synchronising transactions with banks and credit card companies, paying bills online, budgeting, creating reports, tax calculations and generally keeping on top of your business’s financial health.
Using financial software should help to channel resources efficiently and reduce the possibility of costly mistakes. There are many different packages, so you need to look carefully at the options and choose the right one for the specific requirements of your particular business, as well as ensure all the vital cyber-security checks will be in place. In addition, regular back-up copies will need to be made, as the loss of important data could be disastrous.
It can be a daunting prospect, and the last thing you want to do is pay for a package and then find, once it’s installed, that it’s not quite what you need or not sufficiently user-friendly. The best way to avoid this scenario is to consult a professional right at the outset.
Here at AMR Bookkeeping Solutions, every member of our expert team has undergone rigorous training to become accredited in both Sage and Xero software, two of the most business-friendly and affordable accounting platforms on the market.
Sage is the market leading software for providing integrated accounting, payroll and payment systems while Xero works online, providing real-time views of cash flows, which can be accessed via computers, tablets and mobile phones.
After a thorough examination of your organisation and the way you like to work, we can advise on the best system, and if you need training or support during the process we’ll be with you every step of the way. We are equally used to tailoring our training to confident computer users or complete beginners, and we can undertake in-depth training on a regular basis, or provide one-off sessions or ad hoc support in person or by telephone as and when you need it.
