Manual Bookkeeping Training – Full Day

This course is a basic grounding in how to understand simple accounting and the bookkeeping necessary to run a small business. It is a step by step approach to filing, correctly recording day to day information such as sales, purchases, bank and cash transactions. It includes vat and double entry bookkeeping and is backed up with relevant exercises to reinforce the learning process. At the end of the day, the students will work through a complete scenario to pull together everything that they have learned.

This course can be split into half a day, if the business only requires understanding how to run petty cash, how to keep a cash book and how to reconcile the bank account. This would be suitable for small cash based businesses.

This course covers how to use the software to record the daily running of the business.

It continues with setting up recurring entries, journals and understanding the Chart of Accounts. By the end of the day, you will have worked through an entire scenario based on all the usual transactions that a small business would encounter.
