How did the end of year tax period go for your business? Were you spending countless hours trying to input accounting details or add up the receipts? Were you aware of what you spent and what you earned? Was it a complete shock when you finally saw your tax returns? Well, there is one simple solution to these problems and an easier way of ironing out your accounting worries. The answer is Xero. Here are five reasons why you must consider making the switch to Xero.
1. Anytime, anywhere cloud based accounting

The greatest advantage of using Xero is that it can be accessed at anytime from anywhere. Everyone in your team can view the same version, at the same time, no matter where they are located. Xero removes the need for files to be sent back and forth. You can also stop being concerned about regular software maintenance or buying accounting purchases.
2. Rules coding enables automatic bank transactions
Using the Xero software for your bank feeds is like magic! Since the software has a unique rules coding system, once you create the rules, this software will automatically match all of your bank transactions. You can now finally be free from manually entering code transactions. Even using PayPal with Xero is very easy. All you have to do is set up your PayPal account and you can get live feeds right from your PayPal account into Xero. This automation feature of Xero, makes it easy for users to spend less time on entering transactions and more time on growing their business.
3. Quick, simple and live invoicing

Paying an invoice online is a much more simpler and quicker that traditional payment methods. Another unique feature is a little green tick that informs you if your invoice has been viewed by your customers.
