Who This Book Is For
Intended for those who want to learn how to use Xero to get better insights from their business data and learn the best practices of bookkeeping using Xero. Perhaps you have never used Xero, or perhaps you want to migrate from an existing accounting application to Xero. In either case, this book will get you up and running quickly.

In Detail
The book begins by tackling the initial set up of Xero to ensure optimum configuration for success. From there, the next logical step is to set up the automated bank feeds, which is the best innovation in bookkeeping in years. Now that your bank data is ready for importing, we will tackle the most common transactional items, being sales invoices and purchase bills. Despite these being largely transactional, we will work through ways to automate the process where possible, save time, and avoid potential human errors along the way. Then we will start checking reports and analyze what is working or not and make changes to workflows and setups. The end result is that you will have a fully configured system ready to use and years of experience offering best practice solutions to what have been, for years, unnecessary roadblocks in your business.
Style and approach
This book contains easy-to-follow, step-by-step examples, explaining from start to finish how to set up and use Xero while implementing best practices of bookkeeping.
Jon Jenkins graduated from Oxford Brookes University, Oxford, United Kingdom, in 2007 with a bachelor of science degree in applied accounting. He has been a certified chartered accountant since 2006 at the age of just 25.

Seeing the difference small incremental changes could make to businesses, each subsequent job has been all about improving processes, procedures, and systems, and it is these experiences that have culminated in him writing this book.
