Payroll now included in all business plans.

Xero Business plans now include payroll for more than 1 in every plan.  This means that if you upgraded to Comprehensive or Ultimate to include payroll and you don’t need that level for your bookwork, then you can switch back and still enjoy the payroll functionality.  Just remember to factor in that each additional employee above your plan inclusive will cost $4 per person per month.  If you need a hand to sort this out, just drop us a line.


Myob AccountRight

MYOB Accountright Update

From 14th May Accountright clients will find a modernised look for online files. Also on the top of each command centre you will see new action buttons showing what needs attention.  This lets you take action without spending time clicking through different screens.


Automated Work Order Processing

Fergus is excited to introduce a powerful new feature that simplifies job creation! Users can now upload a Work Order PDF, and Fergus will automatically extract key details to create a job—saving time and reducing manual data entry.

New Notification Sound - Fergus Mobile’s signature bark notification helps users distinguish Fergus alerts from other notifications. While some customers love it, others prefer a quieter option. To give you more control, Fergus has now added a setting that allows users to turn the bark on or off.  To do this on your phone, go to Menu, Settings, Push Notifications.
