The Xero accounting platform is one of the best in the business for a lot of reasons. At the top of the list is the Xero Dashboard, a single location to find all of the most important accounting functions you need quick access to. The Dashboard is a fast and efficient way to address accounting both in the office and in the field, and it is highly customisable for your convenience as well.

Dashboard Functions

Table of Contents

  • Dashboard Functions
  • Fully Customisable

The Xero Dashboard is essentially ground zero for your Xero account. This is where all of your primary accounting functions can be accessed. Xero developers built the Dashboard to allow users to see lots of information at a glance. Here is a sampling of what you can include on your Dashboard:

  • KPIs– Your business has key performance indicators (KPIs) that need to be kept track of. Now you can, thanks to their inclusion in the Dashboard.
  • Monthly Trends– Want a better way to manage your cash flow? Then take a look at the ‘Total cash in and out’ box in the Dashboard. It lets you track monthly trends for both incoming and outgoing.
  • Account Watchlist– This function allows you to display your most important income and expense accounts in the Dashboard. It gives you instant access to where those accounts stand at any given time.
  • Checking Account– This function is separate from the Account Watchlist. It allows you to keep track of your current bank balance as well as the balance of your most recent statement. Everything is displayed in an easy-to-read graph. There is also a quick reconcile button for reconciling transactions as they come in.
  • Invoices and Bills– There are two individual windows that display the total value of your outstanding invoices and those bills you need to pay. This helps you manage your cash flow more efficiently. The windows also act as reminders to stay on top of receivables and payables.
  • Expense Claims– Manage your expense claims more efficiently by including them in the Dashboard. This is also the place to enter new receipts with just the click of a mouse or the tap of your finger. Entering receipts has never been easier.

Fully Customisable

The best dashboards allow users to customise their look and feel. Xero’s does just that. You can choose the kinds of information you want on your Dashboard and how you want it to appear. Just choose your tools and then drag-and-drop them into place. You will end up with a dashboard that is as unique as your business.
