Focus on Getting the Most from Your Online Accounting System - November 2026

An in-person Power Hour hosted by Saffrey LLP.

Spend less time on bookkeeping and gain better visibility over your finances. In just one hour, learn which features in your accounting system can help.

Many businesses invest in online accounting software but only use a fraction of its capabilities. Whether you're already using an online accounting system or considering making the move, this practical workshop will help you understand how modern accounting technology can save time, improve accuracy and provide better insights into your business performance.

Join Saffery LLP for an engaging and informative session designed specifically for business owners, directors and finance teams who want to make smarter use of their accounting systems and gain greater confidence in their financial information.

Through a combination of demonstrations, practical examples and expert guidance, we will explore how cloud accounting can reduce administrative burdens, automate routine processes and support better business decision-making. Xero will be used for the purposes of any demonstrations.

What will you learn?

During this workshop we will cover:

  • Why online (cloud) accounting has become an essential business tool
  • Using live financial data to support better business decisions
  • Automating bookkeeping through bank feeds and bank rules
  • Monitoring cash flow and using cloud tools effectively
  • Customising your accounting system to suit your business
  • Practical tips and shortcuts that can save you time each month

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have practical tips you can use straight away to save time and get more from your accounting system. You’ll learn how to automate everyday tasks, keep a closer eye on cash flow and use your figures to make confident decisions that support your business’ growth.

Who should attend?

This workshop is ideal for:

  • Businesses considering moving to an online accounting platform
  • SMEs looking to improve financial visibility and efficiency
