In this lesson, we are going to discuss the Built accounting feature and use cases. We will start with creating your first business in Built. This may be your own businesss account which you are going to use to manage your online bookkeeping practice or it may also be the account of your client. In setting up a business in built accounting, you must have first created a user account and in order to do this you should go to builtaccounting.com.

Once you are there, you can click on Get started it’s free or Sign up for free

This brings you to the create account interface where you need to fill in your personal

Information and account login details. Under personal information you are to enter your first name, your last name and your phone number, then you continue.

You will then be asked to provide an email address as well as a password. There, the password you provide will be used in accessing your built account and so you do not need to provide the password to the email address which you are using but rather a different or unique password for this account should be created.

Then finally a small survey asking how you heard about Built accounting then you can sign up. This creates your user account. After successfully creating your user

account ,it is then time to create your first business. To do that, you enter your business name and then your business email address as well as the telephone number and the address or location of your business.

You then go on to select the country in which the account is being created or will be operated in and then the functional currency of the business and finally the industry in which the business operate. You then click on create business after this successful creation of your business.

You are taken straight to the dashboard of the application. This will be displaying guidelines such as how to create products and services, how to add your customer and how to create your first invoice among others. Now let's move to the settings of the application to do some more customization at settings. When you click on business
