Hi, 
I’ve made two videos for you. 
The first shows you how to see the details in your vat return, and invite your accountant into Bullet. 
The other shows you how to access your vat account and export, and also how you can drill down into the item.
Hope that helps Pete

    Great, I'll take a look at them. One more question Pete. For expenses paid for by an employee and showing up as such, how do I record a payment back to the employee for those expense? Is there a special way to cancel them out?
  2. Peter Connor May 29, 2016
    So when you add an expense the only way it can get paid back to the employee is via payroll.
    When your mark a bill as being paid for by an employee we automatically add that to their expenses, you simply pay them and the expenses are added.
    You can manually edit the expenses amount say from 200 down to 100 and the other 100 will carry over to the next month.
    You can make the wages zero so you can just pay them expenses
    If you click on employees and employees name you can see their expenses report.
    Here is a quick video explaining those 3 points.
    Cheers

    Pete

    How you finding Bullet so far?
  6. siobhan.fitzm May 29, 2016
    I just love Bullet and recommend it to anyone I know who is looking for an accounts system. I will be honest though, I come up against Zero a lot
  7. Peter Connor May 29, 2016
    As in a lot of people were using Xero accounting?
  8. siobhan.fitzm May 29, 2016
    yep
  9. Peter Connor May 29, 2016
    Ah, that would make sense. Xero is built for accountants, so their is no automation in it (obviously) and accountants won't recommend Bullet as a result.
    But, it's going to get more and more automated. I think accounts will be the first professional industry to die from AI.
    Pete
  10. siobhan.fitzm May 29, 2016
    I agree.
  11. Peter Connor May 29, 2016
    Siobhan, when you're talking to your friends and they mention Xero. You just look at them dead on and say "Does Xero send you birdies".
    Ha.
  12. siobhan.fitzm May 29, 2016
    Ha ha, I will
  13. Peter Connor May 29, 2016
    Cool - anything you need let me know we monitor this 24/7
  14. siobhan.fitzm May 29, 2016
    Oh I've just seen something in relation to my question on employee expenses. The expenses are actually for me and as I'm the only employee (or sole trader) it doesn't let me do the wage report. But if I record it as a bank transfer, how do I put it against the note that says 'unpaid employee expenses'?
  15. siobhan.fitzm May 29, 2016
    Actually I'm a LTD company, not a sole trader - does that make any difference
  16. Peter Connor May 29, 2016
    So as a Ltd company you can claim expenses as Sole Trader you can't.
    Are you setup as an employee?
  17. siobhan.fitzm May 29, 2016
    No I'm not set up as an employee
  18. Peter Connor May 29, 2016
    Ok so you need to set yourself up as an employee. Just import your P2C file that is in your ROS and we'll set you up automatically. Everything will be 100% right.
    P
  19. siobhan.fitzm May 29, 2016
    Hmm, haven't yet gone into my ROS file as my accountants (!) been looking after all that but will do it between today and tomorrow. Thank you Pete.
  20. Peter Connor May 29, 2016
    Cool - So you just download the file and go to Bullet click on Wages and you'll see a link on the menu "Import P2C", follow that and everything is done.

    Then when you go to pay a bill you'll see your name as a possible payee in the dropdown. Select yourself and we'll automatically do the payroll tax stuff and add your expenses into it and do all your management reports.
    :)
