i have signed up with freshbooks a canadian company that seems to do what you are doing. I have not used it yet hence can’t compere. However I will study bot and make a decision in which to use.
Do you have training sessions? How much is the service? Is this Australian compliant?
Thanks for help

Hi Gerard. Freshbooks are a great company with an excellent invoicing product. Xero is an accounting system, that does invoicing as well. We are working on an Freshbooks interface so your FreshBooks invoices can be be imported easily into Xero.

We work great in Australia with GST and BAS returns. Work through the demo and getting started guide. Contact our support center for training and access to Xero partners in your region.

The biggest problem I have right now is tracking and paying my contractors. I’d guess “claims” seems to be the area closest to this, but it doesn’t actually address paying contractors/employees, does it?

To elaborate a little further, it’s not going to allow me to break down and track each contractor, just simply a spot to mark all of my claims, is what it seems.

Hi Joe, Expense Claims in Xero are for your employees to submit business expenses incurred from their personal funds. I’m unsure whether this suits what you’re trying to achieve in Xero.

Can you please email support@xero.com with an example of the transaction you’re trying to create, so we can get back to you with a comprehensive answer.

Thanks.

My staff are not able to allocate accouting or GST information to their expense claims, they are not quaolified to do so, and it’s company policy this is handled by accounts. however they can’t submit their claims without entering this information.
Nor can the accounts department view un-submitted receipts in order to file them correctly.
This feature also needs to be available for company accounts (spend money) as there are a great many “small” coalface transactions to be taken care of in that area.

Expenses claim worked well before. But I have a problem recently.
One claim I created 2 days ago, I followed all the steps and the claim was paid from petty cash.
I print out the account payable report today, I found out that that expense claim still sitting there as outstanding expenses claim.
In expenses summary shows it was paid, but in account payable shows outstanding. It is really frustrating, I can not delete it or change it.
Can someone help me out.

Is it possible to add expenses as a line in an employees monthly Payroll, and reconcile that with expense claims that have been entered by them?

Hi,

When adding expense receipts it doesn’t display all available accounts under Account drop down menu i.e. 493 Travel National not listed but Travel International is. Is there any reason for it? Most of our expense claims are comes under 493 Travel National.

Hope this makes sense!

Thanks

Melissa

Hi Melissa, someone with the access to edit the chart of accounts will need to tick ‘Show in Expense Claims’ for your account 493. More in Help here.

+1 to having the ability to add an expense claim for a different user.
