Get more out of Xero

Already using Xero but feel you could be getting more from it? Even as an established Xero user, you may not be making the most of everything it has to offer. That’s where I can help.

I’m Angela Martin, and I can show you how to unlock more of Xero’s features. From automation and reporting to integrations and time-saving features, I’m here to help you use Xero more efficiently and effectively.

Unlock more Xero features

Xero is a powerful accounting platform – but with so many features and tools available, it can be difficult to know what’s available to you, and how to make the most of it. As an experienced Xero Gold Partner and Financial Controller, I provide clear, practical Xero training and Xero bookkeeping support to help you adapt, innovate, and get the most from Xero with confidence.

My Xero training is available on a flexible basis:

  • Upgrading processes and procedures
  • Introducing advanced features and automation to reduce manual workloads
  • Ensuring workflows remain smooth and error-free

Learn Xero by doing – hands-on training

My approach is simple: learn by doing. We work directly within your Xero environment with your own transactions and address the questions you have. That way, everything you learn is personal, practical and immediately relevant to your business.

The following are some of the most common areas I’m asked to provide support with.

Creating customised Xero roles

I can help you create customised roles in Xero, giving specific access rights and privileges. Your team members will have the access they need while permissions will protect sensitive company information.

Xero bank rules

I can help you set up bank rules in Xero to automatically categorise repetitive transactions. For example, you can set up a bank rule to automatically categorise all transactions from a specific supplier as ‘office supplies’.

Find and recode across Xero

I can help you with Xero’s find and recode feature to update accounts, tracking and tax rates across multiple transactions at once. This can save significant time when correcting large amounts of data.

Xero cash coding

I can help you use Xero’s cash coding feature to quickly code multiple spend and receive-money transactions, apply bank rules in bulk, sort transactions and add tracking. This saves time and makes transaction processing more efficient.

Customise your Xero dashboard

I can help you customise your Xero dashboard to show the information that matters most to you, in the order you need it.

Recurring sales invoices in Xero

I can help you set up recurring invoice templates for customers who are billed regularly. This automates the invoicing process, saving time and reducing the need for manual input.

Create invoice branding in Xero

I can help you create additional branding themes for your business, tailoring invoices for specific purposes such as, recurring invoices, one-off projects, different payment terms, and so on.

Automatic email chasers in Xero

I can help you set up personalised invoice reminders in Xero that automatically send emails to your overdue customers, helping encourage timely payments while saving you time.

Xero payroll

I can help you manage Xero payroll processes efficiently, including setting up employees, processing pay runs and keeping payroll records up to date. This helps save time, reduce manual work and ensure your employer requirements – including pension compliance, NEST, P60s, P45s, and P11Ds – are managed accurately.

Xero expense claims

I can help you setup and manage expense claims in Xero, from recording and submitting expenses to reviewing and approving claims, to streamline the process and keep everything within one environment.

Integrate Xero with other business tools

I can help you connect Xero with payment gateways and CRM systems, helping information flow seamlessly between your systems, to reduce manual data entry and improve efficiency.

Create custom Xero reports

I can help you create custom reports in Xero, helping you focus on the KPIs and metrics that matter most to your business, to give clearer insights into performance and improve decision-making.

Email PDFs into Xero

I can help you email supplier bill PDFs directly to Xero, where they can be created as draft bills with key details such as invoice number, date, supplier and amounts automatically captured. The PDF is also attached to the transaction for easy reference.

Use of Hubdoc with Xero

I can help you use Hubdoc to extract information from supplier bills and send it directly into Xero. This gives you greater control over how information is captured in Xero, while storing documents for future reference.

Use the Xero network key

I can help you with the Xero network key that will securely connect authorised third-party applications with Xero. This enables seamless data exchange, such as automatically sharing invoices between linked systems.

Lock dates in Xero

I can help you use Xero’s Lock Dates feature to prevent changes being made to transactions from completed reporting periods, protecting financial records and reducing the risk of errors.

Publish reports in Xero

I can help you publish and save reports and financial statements directly in Xero, creating a fixed snapshot of your accounts at a specific point in time. This makes it easier to retain accurate records as your accounting information changes.

Sync Xero with Google Sheets

I can help you sync Xero with your Google Sheets, allowing you to export reports and budgets, then easily share them with your team for collaboration and review.

Xero foreign currency and international payments

I can help you manage foreign currency accounts and process international payments in Xero, helping you keep track of transactions in different currencies and maintain accurate financial records.

Choose how the Xero training is delivered

Xero Training can be delivered in the way that works best for you. Including screen-sharing sessions via Teams or Zoom, on-site classroom-style training in the Basingstoke area, and the classic ‘phone and ask’.

And because learning doesn’t stop when a session ends, friendly training is always available when you need advice, a quick refresher, or assistance whenever the need next arises.
