Main Features of QuickBooks

Working on the Go: Because QuickBooks is a cloud-based system, it can work on a range of different devices. So if you start an item of work on a PC, you can finish it at home on a tablet or smartphone. It also means your accountant can log into the system from anywhere in the world at any time, which is important if there are any outstanding issues which need resolving immediately. There are also a number of apps which can be used with QuickBooks.

Real-time Dashboards: This can generate a range of reports and presents information in a form which is easy to follow, keeping track of items such as sales and invoices. You can customise it so you can see just the information you want and no more.

Payroll and Auto-enrolment: QuickBooks can sort out all the admin involved in a payroll system, including for new members of staff. It can generate and e-mail payslips and P45 and P60 forms, automatically calculate all your staff’s NI and PAYE contributions, and make sure you are fully compliant with the new pension requirements of HMRC.

Expenses: You can take the stress out of paying expenses with QuickBooks. The software allows you to take images of receipts, or add description notes, so they can be authenticated more quickly. It can also set up recurring payments if you know you will have a regular set of expenses to meet; and all the information can be instantly shared with your accountant.

Automatic Bank Downloads: QuickBooks can simplify your financial transactions by letting you see all your bank accounts together. It can match up outgoings automatically to sales and expenses and you can customise it to split up transactions in whatever way you want.

VAT: QuickBooks can work out the correct amount of tax you need to pay, even if you have overseas customers. The software can supply up-to-date customised reports, meaning you should never have to receive any unwanted bills from HMRC.
