Accounting software setup & support in Royal Docks — from £99, fixed.
Half the messy books we rescue in East London started with a rushed software setup years earlier. For Royal Docks businesses we do it properly: right platform, right chart of accounts, feeds that reconcile.
Accounting Software Support for Royal Docks — done properly, entirely online
Businesses in Royal Docks adopting software for the first time (often MTD-driven), switchers between platforms, and anyone whose current file has drifted so far from the bank that reports mean nothing.
What's included
- Honest software recommendation based on your business, not our commissions
- Chart of accounts built for your trade — not the generic default that makes reports useless
- Bank feeds, VAT settings and invoice templates configured and tested
- Historic data migrated with balances that actually reconcile
- A recorded walkthrough so the knowledge doesn't leave when the call ends

Online accountants vs the high street
Most local firms near Royal Docks quote low, bill by the hour and reserve the right to charge for every phone call. Our model inverts that: the fee is fixed and written down before work begins, questions are part of the service rather than billable events, and everything happens online — the reason Royal Docks pays the same as everywhere else.
There's no office to fund in Royal Docks and no office to visit: records travel through our secure portal or WhatsApp, approvals happen on your phone, and filings go to HMRC and Companies House electronically. You get the same qualified work — minus the overheads, the travel and the surprises on the invoice.

Royal Docks accounting software support FAQs
Xero, QuickBooks or FreeAgent — which should I pick?
It genuinely depends: FreeAgent suits contractors and is free with some business bank accounts; Xero scales best for growing businesses with staff and stock; QuickBooks sits between on price and features. We recommend against whatever doesn't fit — we don't earn from your subscription either way.
Can you migrate my history, or do I start from scratch?
History comes too: opening balances, customer and supplier records, unpaid invoices, and usually one to two years of transactions. The test of a good migration is that your first VAT return after the switch reconciles without drama — that's the standard we work to.
My software file is a mess — is it fixable or do we start over?
Almost always fixable, and usually cheaper than starting over. The typical repair: re-reconcile the bank from the last point it was right, fix miscoded VAT, archive the duplicate contacts, rebuild the chart of accounts. You get a file you can trust plus a note on what caused the drift.
Do I need to visit an office in Royal Docks?
No — there's nothing to visit and nothing to print. We're an online firm: records go through our secure portal or WhatsApp, and everything is filed electronically. It works the same whether you're in Royal Docks or anywhere else in East London.
I searched "accounting software support near me" — is this service really local to Royal Docks?
Royal Docks is fully covered, yes. The work is done online, which in practice means more local than an office: same-day replies instead of appointment slots, and the same published fixed fee whether you're in Royal Docks town centre or the edge of East London. If you'd rather talk it through first, WhatsApp us — a real person answers.
Who will actually handle my accounting software support?
Bohzo Accountants — a trading name of Bohzo Ltd, a registered UK company (No. 15031604). You get a named contact, a fixed fee in writing, and nothing is filed until you've reviewed and approved it.
How do your fixed fees work?
You tell us your situation, we quote one fixed price in writing before any work starts, and that price never changes mid-job. If your case is unusually complex we'll say so up front and agree a different fixed price — but the fee is always agreed before we begin, never after.
The short version of the rules that matter
Miss 31 January and the £100 fine is automatic; three months later daily penalties start. If you're behind on a return, the maths almost always favours filing quickly over waiting — penalties grow on a timetable, and HMRC charges interest either way.
The first hire brings PAYE registration, Real Time Information submissions every payday, workplace pension auto-enrolment and payslips that must be right. It's all completely manageable — as a monthly routine run by software, not a monthly crisis.
Ask any prospective accountant two questions: "what's included in the fee?" and "what costs extra?" The quality of those two answers predicts the whole relationship.
MTD for Income Tax starts with the £50,000+ income group in April 2026, with lower bands following. Quarterly digital updates sound worse than they are — with software doing the bookkeeping, the quarters largely take care of themselves.
HMRC requires records to be kept for at least five years after the filing deadline for the self-employed. Digital copies count. A cloud folder or app now beats a carrier bag of paper every time — for you and for any future enquiry.
The £90,000 VAT threshold is measured over any 12-month rolling window, so a strong few months can tip you over mid-year. There's a 30-day window to register once you cross it; miss that and HMRC can backdate the liability to when you should have registered.
New companies often have a long first accounting period, which can mean two corporation tax returns for one set of accounts. It's normal, but it's exactly the kind of thing that's cheaper to get right first time than to unpick.
Register with HMRC by the 5 October after your first tax year of trading, open a separate business account, and put a fixed slice of every payment aside for tax. Do those three things and your first January will be boring — the good kind.
