Accountin vs QuickBooks for accountancy practices

QuickBooks Online is bookkeeping software a business subscribes to. Practices use QuickBooks Online Accountant, and prepare annual accounts in Workpapers and the CT600 in Pro Tax.

Where QuickBooks has more

QuickBooks includes bank feeds on every plan, discounts client subscriptions for practices that are billed for them, and files today.

Using both

Export the trial balance from QuickBooks as CSV and import it into Accountin to prepare the accounts and CT600.

Accountin's filing status

Accountin is opening to its first practices. Year-end accounts, Companies House filing and the corporation tax return come first. Filing at Companies House switches on once Companies House issues Accountin's own filing credentials, and submission to HMRC switches on once HMRC has recognised Accountin. VAT and Making Tax Digital for Income Tax follow as HMRC approves each one.
