Xero. Also consider quikbooks.Iam taking over the paying of farm accounts, family farm. what soft ware are people using. require it to be simple and easy to use
any help appreciated
Yes & No !The bad thing about Xero is it doesn't do any management accounting specific to agriculture. I use Excel for that, which I enjoy and am good at.
Yes & No !
Accountants like to use their "standard " codes for creating year end accounts
In xero it is simple to break down payments / credits into as many headings as you need by creating new ledger codes to provide the info you need.
Among other things we keep the milk van costs seperate from general motor expenses. Accounts came back with them merged.
Had to have words with our accountants. along the lines of " Whose bloody accounts are these anyway "
They don`t merge them anymore

Sorry, that was a bit absolutist...I was going to post much the same thing. I know you can create as many ‘headings’ as you like in QuickBooks, and assumed Xero was the same.
Had barclays send email offering freshbooks "free" software for doing mtd vat returns, anyone going to have a go? or using similar been using excel but accountant offered £25 per return to upload figures to hmrc, continue to do spreadsheets for each month, save cost of xero or quickbooks
