Workbooks provides you with a 5-step Quick Start Wizard to help you get started. If you’re the first System Administrator set up for your account, this Wizard will re-appear every time you log in to Workbooks until it has been completed. Similarly, if you create a new database (either an empty database or a copy of one for which the Quick Start Wizard hasn’t been completed), you’ll see the Wizard.

  • Confirming your Own Organisation’s name and address.
  • Choosing your tax regime and currency.
  • Entering your sales tax and company registration numbers.
  • Entering your first accounting periods.
