The accounting year, task by task
No one wakes up wanting to do "accounting". In practice, there are specific jobs with dates attached: prepare Model 900, reconcile this month's bank statement, close the financial year, or catch up on supplier invoices left in a drawer.
Each page follows one task from start to finish: what you need before you begin, the individual steps, common failure points, and what AndCompta prepares so the job takes minutes instead of an afternoon.
These guides are written for the person doing the work, not the person buying the software. If you keep the books yourself, use them as a guide. If your accounting firm does it, use them to understand what you are asking for.
About these tasks
Where do I start if I'm late?
Bring the sales and purchase invoices for the open period up to date, in that order. Until then, neither bank reconciliation nor the IGI register can be reliable. Other work can wait; this cannot.
Do these guides replace my accounting firm?
No. They explain the mechanics so you understand what is happening and can complete your part. Filing responsibility and professional judgement in uncertain cases remain with a qualified adviser.
How much time should I spend on it each month?
If invoices are recorded as they arise and the bank statement is imported weekly, a small company's monthly work can take minutes. Reconstructing three months at once takes hours—and that is avoidable.
