working papers/incomplete software for accountants?
Hi, I am new to this so bear with me! I am in the process of setting up a new practice and acquiring clients and wondered if there is any software out there that will eliminate excel worksheets. I currently use these and bespoke them for each client. I use sage for some things but am looking at buying Iris for the accounts/tax etc but am trying to save time at the lower end where I have a client who has manual/incomplete records. I have searched on here and can see VT accounts software and Caseware. Does anyone know anything about these or have any other ideas?
Thankyou.
VT Software and 12 pay
Thank you for that. I have looked at them and will download a trial of the VT software. Does 12 pay enable submission of year end returns do you know?
for payroll
download a free copy of payroll manager www.moneysoft.co.uk. YOu wont be disappointed and yes does year end Forms P35. And P11ds and is a really good value as others will confirm
Digita Accounts Production
I set up my own practice last year and have some incomplete record clients.
I use Digita software and their Accounts Production software allows you to recreate a cashbook as well as prepare the statutory accounts.
It is integrated with tax and practice management software like IRIS is and I think you'll find it's a bit cheaper than IRIS. I used to be an IRIS user with my previous practice but was more impressed with Digita.
I've used Digita for the past year and I'm still impressed with the product and keep discovering even more that it can do, thanks to my excellent account manager there.
If you want to talk further about Digita, do contact me!
Starting out
VT is brilliant, and ypu won't go wrong with Moneysoft payroll manager or BTC tax software that integrates seamlessly with VT. I see BTC now offer flexible payment options.
Moneysoft payroll
Thank you everyone, I have downloaded the Moneysoft and it looks so easy! Why didn't I use it before?!!!
Thanks for all the advice. I will look into the VT now

VT final accounts and TaxCalc
I would not recommend anything else
VT plug into Excel and is very flexible. TaxCalc is intuitive plus they will provide a CRM module
if you do payroll, I recommend 12pay
