Why study Xero Online?

Knowledge of Xero Online accounting and bookkeeping software is highly desirable by many businesses, and it is vital to become competitive professionals and secure more jobs. As accounting is shifting rapidly into the digital age, including tax submissions directly to your tax office, Xero is one of the leading software providers to offer a reliable accounting package for all requirements.

Xero Online Accounting and Bookkeeping has a similar structure across all countries. In my view, once you learn the basics, it is easy to navigate through any other version. I have reviewed the Australian Xero version. See my YouTube channel @LearnbookeepingUK for that video.

Why study online?

Studying online at your own pace, wherever you are based, helps you to achieve your goals without extra stress or pressure. No matter if your goal is to find a new job as a bookkeeper, or start your own small (or big) bookkeeping business.

The course covers all essentials, based on my years of experience with Xero, and in my view, this is an ideal starting point for any bookkeeper at the beginning or advanced level to refresh the latest updates.

About the course:

Course based on the Xero software UK demo company. I explain how to register for a trial version and how to download the Case study with exercises (Section 1 Case study). Registering for the trial version helps to learn by doing exercises along with the videos on your own as well.

If you would like to become a successful freelance bookkeeper, I recommend going through each module and then referring when needed. ( You have indefinite access to this course!).

If you are a sole trader or a business owner and have decided to do your bookkeeping, go through the main chapters on how to set up your business, how to raise sales and credit notes, how to input the purchase invoice or purchase credit, how to connect to the bank, and how to run main reports. For everything else, you can always refer back if needed.

Course covers:

• How to register for a test-free version of Xero.

• The navigation panel, featuring files and folders, dashboard edit for quick access.

• Organisation settings, including changes in business, financial settings for year-end, locking period, etc.

• Chart of accounts and learning about the nominal codes, why we need those, what they are, and how to import or edit the codes on Xero;

• The contact list and how to add clients or suppliers, featuring a quick edit option;

• Inventory and how to manage stock on Xero;

• The sales process in detail, from raising a quote to raising sales invoices, sending statements, chasing debts, and setting up repetitive invoices.

• Fixed assets and learning about types of depreciation, how to adjust each asset we add, or how to import existing;

• Purchase process in detail: from raising a purchase order, converting PO to invoices on Xero, or simply entering the invoice directly from the supplier, features uploading files for a quick view, and quick payment addition.

• How to upload receipts into folders on Xero and process receipts step-by-step guide.

• Thorough explanation of banking: from how to add various bank accounts (PayPal, everyday, credit cards, etc), how to set up online payments for clients to pay for the invoice, how to manually import statements to a full bank reconciliation process guide with bank rules, shortcuts and learning about what to do when errors occur.

• Finally, reporting, featuring bank reconciliation reporting, age payable, profit and loss, and balance sheet.
