we have now implemeted an Advisors portal. What this does for your accountant is that is allows them to:

• Invite clients to 1place
• Brand 1place with thier firms logo
• Standardise and lock their chart of accountants for clients they invite to 1place 
• single login to access all their clients accounts

In addition you can now export transactionsfrom 1place to MYOB Accountants office and APS

 we are currently woring on a new look and feel for 1place , which we expect to complete by end of July

keep in touch

Hi

we have just added a number of new reports which we hope you will find useful:

1. GST Audit Report

when you have completed a draft GST return its important to print out this report to review to ensure that all the GST transactions have been coded correctly. This is something your accountant may ask to review when they are preparing your year end acccounts

2. Monthly Profit and Loss and Balance sheet reports

These reports show how your business perform monthly, invaluable to see business trends

3. Accounts Receivable Aged Trial balance

This report shows all your invoices o/s and how many days they are overdue

4. General ledger enquiry report

this report enables you to analyse what transactions make up the balance in the profit and loss and Balance sheets

If you think there are other reports which would be useful please contact us

cheers

Hi

 sorry been a while but at 1place we have been busy behind the scenes. Since I last wrote we have implemented:

•   our automated billing system for our customers
• reduced the invoice numbering starting from 1000 from feedback from our customers
• Added “my reports ” tab, over the next few weeks we will be adding new reports in time for year end
• Updated our statements form

If you have any other suggestions how we can make 1place better then we love to hear from you

cheers

Martin

1place allows you to have up to 5 bank accounts per user registration. Each bank accounts transactions need to be separately uploaded into 1place from your bank in order for the transactions to be included in your results.

 when you are transferring between bank accounts we have set up a separate ” transfer between bank accounts” to handle interbank transfers

Merry Christmas to you all from the Team at 1place. We wish you a blessed and restful break

cheers

From your requests for suggetsed functionality we have now added Credit Notes. Credit notes must be assigned to a specific invoice and there can only be 1 credit note to 1 invoice. Try it out, we think it works well and remember to email us with other suggested functionality

Hi

 We released today our new invoice format. From the feedback we received users wanted an invoice which matched their revenue type. ie

1.  Some wanted Services charged hourly

2. Some wanted products eg timber sold for builders

3. Some wanted a fixed price arrangement

 so we developed an invoice format which caters for all 3, which can be customised to what you invoice mainly!

be keen to hear what you think

1place

Hi

well we’re back, had a few hiccups  and apologies for the  site being down, but we are now rearing to go. Over the next few weeks we will be adding new functionality to the site, which i’ll talk about in further blogs. In the meantime we will be adding this week a new invoicing screen which will enable you to handle specifically product and service invoices. We will also be adding some information about us and who is behind 1place

We have some really exciting innovations which I’ll share over the coming weeks but welcome your feedback at admin@1place.co.nz

cheers

Greetings all Mac users! Because 1place is a website and not software installed onto your computer, you the customer have the ability to run your business accounts from any Internet-enabled computer in the world. This means Mac and PC are catered for.

This sounds great right!? There is one catch, and that is the choice of program you use to access the Internet with. There are two main options on the Mac: Safari (comes standard), and Firefox. We are on version 1 of the 1place website thus far, and have tested the site on Internet Explorer & Firefox. We haven’t yet tested Safari. We have heard from a couple of users that Safari doesn’t always work perfectly (and we would expect that because it’s not tested).

Therefore… we are currently recommending Mac users who are using Safari to switch to Firefox. We are going to have a Safari-tested website up and running as soon as possible, and will let you know when that happens through this blog.

Download at the Firefox download page
