Turning on modules

Some parts of A4O Accounts are off until a company needs them. A Manager of the company turns them on from the Modules page, and they’re on straight away.

Updated 3 November 2026. Written for the app as it is today.

Before you start
  • Select the company you want to change.
  • Only a Manager of that company can turn modules on.

Turn a module on

  1. Go to Overview → Modules.
  2. Find the module, such as Stock or Client questions, and click Turn on.
  3. Once it’s on, use Open to go to it. Where there’s a Setup guide, it walks you through the first steps.

Modules are turned on for one company at a time. For an accountant, that means each client company separately.

What’s on already

Companies House filing, Corporation Tax, Payroll, Bank connections, Expense claims, Jobs and the Assistant are on for every company. Stock and Client questions start off.
