Cloud-based accounting software company, Xero, announced this week that it has released a version of its software for the United States.
The update includes simple things like spelling differences, ability to generate 1099s, and regional reporting. Larger enhancements include:
“The ability to print checks (cheques for the rest of you). Checks are still widely used in the US (the bigger the better) and while we’d love
to encourage electronic alternatives we accept that there’s still a strong demand for paper checks.”
Xero also mentions future plans of providing users with an automated way to receive and make payments.
