Common Questions

Xero Questions Answered

Everything you need to know about switching to Xero and working with Goldsmith Tax as your certified Xero advisor.

What does Xero Gold Partner status mean?
Xero Gold Partner is the highest level of Xero certification awarded to accounting firms in the UK. It requires a significant number of clients using Xero, certified staff members and proven expertise on the platform. It means you are working with one of the most qualified Xero practices in the country.
How long does it take to set up Xero?
For most businesses, we have Xero fully configured and live within 24 to 48 hours of receiving your information. For businesses migrating from another system with historical data, the process typically takes 3 to 5 working days to ensure everything is transferred accurately and completely verified.
Can I access Xero on my phone?
Yes — Xero has a fully featured mobile app for iOS and Android that allows you to send invoices, reconcile transactions, capture expenses and view your financial dashboard from anywhere. The app syncs in real time with your Xero account, so your data is always current.
Using Sage can you migrate our data?
Absolutely. We have migrated clients from Sage, QuickBooks, FreshBooks, Wave and manual spreadsheets to Xero. Our migration process preserves your chart of accounts, contacts, outstanding invoices, and historical transaction data. We verify every figure before going live to ensure complete accuracy.
Does Xero replace my accountant?
No — Xero is a powerful tool, but it works best when managed by a qualified accountant. We use Xero to manage your accounts, which means you get the best of both worlds: the efficiency and real-time visibility of cloud software, combined with the expertise and strategic advice of an experienced accounting team.
What does Xero cost?
Xero subscription costs depend on the plan you need. As a Xero Gold Partner, we can access discounted Xero pricing for our clients, and in many cases the Xero subscription cost is included within your monthly accountancy fee. We'll discuss the most cost-effective approach for your business during your free initial consultation.
