Ceni practice overview
Actual Ceni practice overview · cropped detail, fictional demo records · 5 November 2026. Open full-size screenshot

Start with the work
that needs attention.

See overdue work, deadlines in the next seven or thirty days, and jobs waiting on clients. Filter by service and open the job or client record for the detail.

Due next

See approaching statutory deadlines and the jobs behind them.

With your team

Understand ownership, progress and the next task.

With the client

Keep work waiting on a response separate from work your team can move forward.

From onboarding
to ongoing work.

1

Build the client record

Keep company information, contacts, services and accounting periods together. Use relevant Companies House information alongside your practice records.

2

Get the relationship ready

Track engagement letters and due-diligence records. See missing information, keep supporting evidence and offer generated engagement letters for signing through the client portal.

3

Set up the work ahead

Maintain your service list and agreed fees. Organise jobs and deadlines for annual accounts, corporation tax, confirmation statements and VAT returns. Job generation depends on reviewed client setup and enabled services.

4

Keep responsibility clear

Assign jobs and tasks, track progress and distinguish work with your team from work waiting on a client. Keep review and completion visible.

The client relationship
stays alongside the job.

Your practice module uses the wider Ceni platform. Keep emails, calls, notes, bookings and follow-ups connected to the people you serve.

Letters and templates

Use published practice templates for engagement and review letters, with services and agreed fees connected to the client.

Financial reviews

Manage staff-entered review information, consent statements and versioned letters with access limited to the appropriate roles.

Connected client balances

Match practice clients with Xero contacts for supported receivables information when the connection and feature are enabled.

Turn the books into
a reviewed monthly report.

Where monthly FD reporting is enabled, work from the client’s linked Xero organisation and keep the figures, checks and approved report together.

Prepare from the source

Choose a completed month, review the figures and check supporting evidence. Map accounts to consistent report headings.

Review before approval

Check commentary, warnings and actions. Review the client and internal PDFs before an Owner approves the exact version.

Share deliberately

Send the approved client copy separately to authorised portal contacts. Internal working notes stay with your practice.

Reports are prepared and shared deliberately. Monthly reporting requires activation and a linked client Xero organisation; it does not automatically file tax returns.

your practice.
