The most common Xero mistakes

[@thescienceofwellbeinguk]

Brilliant. I made the 'Computer Equipment' and 'Salaries' mistake! Life saver. Thank you!

[@XUSolutions]

you’re not the only one!

[@suepenketh9488]

I am new to Xero and I am so glad to have found your videos. Thank you, Marion.👍 I still don't get how to distinguish account types (apart from what you showed). Do you have a video on Direct Costs, Overheads, Expenses, Other Income, Revenue, Liability, Current Asset, Current Liability and Equity? I need so much help!

[@XUSolutions]

Hi Sue I don’t but now you mention it I might have soon.

[@khawajadanishaltaf1847]

Thank you so much! Always keep your KZbin channel in my mind for Xero!

[@kairitac]

[@XUSolutions]

So glad you liked it

[@carltonmcfarlane_64]

Great advice for a small business owner doing their own books - thanks!

[@snipperacoustics]

Great video but my question is when we pay self employed employees that issue us with an invoice, can we then code these transactions as "Self Employed Wages" that can be an "Overhead"?

[@MargaretUK]

It's a 'cost of sale' expense

Much Much love and respect from Pakistan, You made my day! I wish you are my mother🌟⭐

[@AbbiEvans-jj6zh]

If customer is not registered for VAT then invoice will be NO VAT not ZERO

[@XUSolutions]

I’ve got a video discussing this - there’s no right or wrong answer but I prefer zero rated.

[@anon-842]

When do we use 477 - Salaries instead of 814 - Wages Payable - Payroll?

[@XUSolutions]

400 codes are for costs and 800 codes are for liabilities.

Hi Marion, I hope you are well. Just wondering why you are not posting new videos for months now. Hope everything is Okay with you 🙏🏼

[@XUSolutions]

Hi thanks for your comment. I planned on a wee break which became a longer break. But I will be back before too long.

Very useful, thank you.

[@XUSolutions]

You're welcome!

[@karonbanks6296]

With wages payable showing as a liability however - I don’t know how to balance this liability so that once it’s paid to the employee and tax man it disappears from the liabilities section in our balance sheet?

[@XUSolutions]

The payment to the employee gets coded to the liability code, clearing it to nil.

[@sonymehra970]

*Could you make a video on how to apply switch rule on any code, there is no video available on internet on that topic!*

[@XUSolutions]

Ooh I will add that one to my list. Do you find it confusing?

[@esajid]

In invoice print, I want to show credit card charges in notes, say 1%, I want the amount after 1% of total invoice to be shown here in notes. Is there a way to do it?

[@AminSepanta]

Thank you, fixed my mistakes! :)

[@XUSolutions]

Glad I could help!

[@maricelrutaquio5365]

Guilty with salary encoded to 477 Salaries...and with VAT

[@XUSolutions]

You’re not alone 😊

[@jovianpiang5254]

Can you claim vat if it Is a order number but there was a vat in the sales order

[@XUSolutions]

You need to get a vat invoice from the supplier.

[@shoibulsho3947]

very helpfull

[@MargaretUK]

The biggest error is using Xero, it's pants 😣

[@XUSolutions]

I’ve been using it daily for 12 years and can honestly say it’s a great tool, but like any has its limitations.

[@MargaretUK]

@@XUSolutions The bank rec is driving me nuts and I'm not a fan of the rest of it either, especially the locking of some nominal codes 😒I was previously a Sage user for 25 years, far more user friendly.

[@Robman1943]

Very good! My error is posting to the wrong bank account.

[@XUSolutions]

I think we’ve all done that!
