Accounting Software

[JDM1983 28]

Using this downtime to do my first years accounts, I never imagined what a confusing job it would be. I thought I’d kept decent records in excel, but they just aren’t fit for this purpose.

Just wondering if anyone can recommend any accounting software, needs to be something fairly cheap, like an app, as I don’t have pockets for a proper dealer system at the moment. Any recommendations would be appreciated

Ones that offer the margin vat scheme are far and few between and mostly then there just bolt on's have you priced the basic service with your accountant ? it shouldnt cost the earth and they can wiz through it.

Yes, been using this for years, Rod is always on the end of the phone too if you need any help with the package. Not cheap, but does the job really well
