Cloud accounting, also known as online accounting, is a way to keep business records online using a system that's accessible through the internet:
Accessibility: Employees can access their accounts from anywhere with an internet connection, instead of being limited to specific devices.
Data sharing: Users can share data with colleagues and clients with ease.
Security: Data is encrypted and stored on a cloud server, providing instant backups.
Third-party software: Most cloud platforms have an open API, which allows third-party software to connect with your system.
Live bank feeds: Many cloud accounting platforms offer live feeds to your bank accounts, which can speed up bank reconciliation.
Here are some steps you can take to transition to cloud accounting:
Create an implementation plan with goals, tasks, and deadlines.
Prepare your data for migration by cleaning it up and organizing it.
Migrate your data from your existing accounting system to the cloud accounting software.
Train your employees on how to use the new software.
Test the software to ensure it meets your business needs.
