Hi, I joined just now and wanted to search for any Xero related postings. But there is no search facility? Surely search is crucial to get the full benefits from an active forum such as this?

Bit of time-out point, so thought I'd stick it here. Had a long phone call with a Field agent for PAYE on Friday, the guy had obviously been around for a few years and we started chatting at how it was getting more difficult for both Agents and HMRC alike. Anyway 2 points he made astounded me. Firstly, the i...

These invoices are about A6 size. It looks as though a dog has been at it. I'm not blaming the client - I'm blaming the person issuing the invoice. I've removed anything identifying the client. (There should be an image below)
