Accounting software setup & support in Bromley Town
Most accounting software problems in Bromley Town businesses were created on day one: a default chart of accounts that fits nobody, bank feeds half connected, VAT codes wrong, opening balances never entered. We set it up properly, or fix the one you have, for a one-off fixed fee, and we recommend software on merit rather than commission.

Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
The 60-day property CGT return
Selling UK residential property that was not your main home for the whole period of ownership triggers a separate Capital Gains Tax return, due within 60 days of completion along with payment of the tax. This is in addition to the annual Self Assessment. The gain is taxed at 18% or 24% depending on your income band, after the £3,000 annual exempt amount.
Crypto records and reporting
Most crypto holders have taxable events they do not recognise, because every swap is a disposal even when no pounds change hands. The computation requires the complete transaction history from every exchange and wallet, pooled by asset with HMRC's matching rules applied. Exchange-generated tax reports are frequently wrong because they cannot see transfers between a user's own wallets.
Allowable expenses
An expense is allowable against trading profit if it is incurred wholly and exclusively for the business. Materials, business travel other than ordinary commuting, a proportion of home running costs, software, insurance, professional fees, bank charges and protective clothing qualify. Client entertainment, ordinary clothing, fines and the private share of mixed-use costs do not.
Record keeping
Good records are the difference between a quick enquiry and a long one. For the self-employed, five years after the filing deadline; for companies, six years from the year end; for VAT, six years. Photographs of receipts, PDF statements and software exports all count. The requirement is to keep records, not paper, and a well-organised cloud folder satisfies it.
Workplace pensions and auto-enrolment
Every employer must assess its workers for automatic enrolment from the first employee's start date. Those aged 22 to State Pension age earning over £10,000 a year must be enrolled into a qualifying pension with minimum contributions of 8% of qualifying earnings, at least 3% from the employer, and a declaration of compliance made to the Pensions Regulator within five months.
Employer National Insurance
Since April 2025 employer National Insurance has been 15% on earnings above a £5,000 secondary threshold, a substantial increase for small employers. The Employment Allowance rose to £10,500 at the same time to soften it for the smallest businesses. Directors deciding their own salary weigh this cost against the Corporation Tax deduction a salary provides.
The trading and property allowances
Not every small income needs a tax return. The trading allowance exempts the first £1,000 of self-employment or casual income and the property allowance does the same for rental income, each measured on gross receipts. They cannot be combined with rent-a-room relief on the same income, and claiming the allowance means giving up the expense deduction for that source.
Questions
Accounting Software Support questions from Bromley Town
What if I want to do my own bookkeeping after setup?
That is exactly what the setup and training are for. Many clients keep their own books in the software we set up and come to us only for the year-end accounts and tax return, which is cheaper for them. We configure bank rules and automations so the routine work is mostly matching, not typing.
Can you fix VAT returns that were filed from the software wrongly?
Yes. We reconcile each filed return to the transactions, identify the errors, and correct them in the software and, where required, with HMRC through the next return or a formal error correction. The cleanup fee covers the software work; any HMRC correction is quoted separately before we start.
Can you connect my online shop or payment processor?
Yes. Marketplace and e-commerce platforms, card processors and payment gateways can be integrated so that sales, fees and payouts post automatically and reconcile to the bank. Getting the fee and VAT treatment right on these integrations is where most e-commerce files go wrong, and we configure it as part of the setup.
Will the setup make my year-end cheaper?
Usually, yes. Our own limited company and sole trader accounts fees assume reconciled records, and a properly set up file produces them. Accounts prepared from a tidy software file take days; accounts rebuilt from a broken one take weeks and cost more. The setup fee is typically recovered in the first year-end.
Do you provide training?
Yes. The £89 session is 90 minutes by video call, recorded for you to replay, covering the tasks you actually do: raising invoices, capturing receipts, matching bank transactions, running the VAT return, reading the reports. A written quick-reference follows. Several staff can attend the same session.
Who pays for the software subscription?
You do, directly to the software company, so that the data is yours and you can change accountant without losing it. Subscriptions range from a few pounds a month for basic sole trader tools to around £35 for the fuller platforms. We will tell you if a cheaper tier is sufficient.
How do I get started from Bromley Town?
Message us on WhatsApp or email with a sentence about your business and what you need. We reply in working hours with any questions and a fixed fee for accounting software support. Once you confirm, we tell you exactly which records to send and the work begins. Most Bromley Town clients are set up within a day.
