COVID-19 Government pledged support

By | COVID-19, Support | No Comments

Government Finance and Support:

Read this page, but note it was last updated 22nd March 2020. There have been new Government support announcements since this date, so please see our FAQ pages for the more detail.

The Government’s official page has been updated with new information on who is eligible and when/how to apply – it’s still a bit of a waiting game, but we can still be taking action. The best advice for now is speak to your bank (find out what information they’ll need from you as we can help prepare this). See the “what can I do now” page. Or give us a call.

All the latest information on the Governments support packages can be found on the link below (it should be updated as new support or developments are made) – the advice (for business premises grants) at present is to wait for your local authority to contact you, but if you need to you can get their contact details here: find my local authority/council

You should now work down the list and reconcile the items you can (the items imported from your bank statement appear on the left):

  • If Xero can match the item to a purchase or sales invoice then it will be highlighted in green on the right (see the second transaction below), make sure to check that this is the correct invoice that is getting matched to the transaction before selecting ‘OK’.
  • If you think you can match the transaction to a purchase or sales invoice (but Xero is not highlighting it in green), then you can select the ‘Match’ tab on the right and then select which invoice to match it to.
  • If the transaction is a bank transfer (to another bank account which is on Xero), then select the “transfer’ tab on the right, you can then select which bank account this is transferred to/from.
  • If you do not have an invoice but you know what the transaction is, then under the create tab you can enter in the details of the transaction (see the third transaction below). Make sure to enter ‘Who’ (e.g. BT), ‘What’ (e.g. telephone and internet) and ‘Why’ (e.g. telephone bill for august). Then select ‘OK’.
  • If you do not know what the transaction is or you do not know how to reconcile it, then click on the ‘Discuss’ tab on the right, then type in a description of what the item is and click ‘Save’.

Xero Help: How to split a bill that’s part paid

By | Support, Xero Help | No Comments

If you’ve part paid a bill, or have been part paid for a sales invoice, you’ll need to split the bill/invoice to recognise the amount still outstanding. To do this:

  1. Select the ‘match’ tab on the bank reconciliation
  2. Then select ‘find and match’
  3. Select the relevant invoice and then select ‘split’ (see picture below):

Xero should do the rest, allocating the amount paid/received from the bank automatically to the bill/invoice, you just need to hit OK.

If you need any help with Xero, then feel free to get in contact with Love Accountancy – contact details are in the footer.
