More information
Sage Instant Accounts lets you manage your finances, accounts, customers and suppliers.

You will be guided through the set up process, to make it as easy as possible to get up and running. In fact, with all the built-in advice and help you can access, you'll be up and running in no time.

Use the Practice Mode to try things out before getting to grips with your company data. The Welcome Page offers a central area where you can return to whenever you need help finding or doing something.

There are also video demonstrations to help you complete key tasks. And there's no need to worry about making mistakes - it's really easy to correct errors too.

Sage Instant Accounts lets you track where your money is coming from and going to. Your product, customer and supplier records can be reported on, so you'll always know to whom you owe money, and more importantly, who owes it to you.

From the VAT Ledger you can generate your VAT Returns, EC Sales List and Reverse Charge Sales List and also make submissions and payments to HM Revenue & Customs.

HMRC has introduced online VAT submissions, so with Sage Instant Account's e-VAT submissions, you can securely submit your VAT returns to HMRC via email and get an extra 10 days to pay.

Plus, Sage Instant Accounts also works with Sage Payment Solutions*, giving you the ability to receive card payments from your customers.
