Who it's for

For administration and finance: invoices, outstanding items and VAT: the work that comes back every month and goes wrong when it is rushed. Those hours go into looking at the figures and chasing down anomalies, instead of into retyping entries and laying VAT returns side by side.

This department comes into play in installation companies, construction and contractors, accountancy and bookkeeping firms, wholesale, manufacturing, transport and logistics, healthcare practices and providers, hospitality, IT and software companies, architects and engineering firms, landscaping and grounds maintenance, car dealers and garages, training providers, legal and notaries and staffing and recruitment agencies.

How to install it

  1. Choose the template in your environment under Templates.
  2. Point at the integrations it needs and fill in at most three settings.
  3. Test with an example, read the run back and say yes before it goes live.

The full manual (what it is for, what you get, what you need, step by step, testing, errors with cause and remedy) sits with the template in your own environment.
