TELUS Farm Accounting
What it is
TELUS Farm Accounting is a cloud-based web accounting service for farmers and rural enterprises, formerly Farmplan Business Cloud. Its chart of accounts, terminology, and workflows are tailored to UK agriculture, including crop costs, livestock, inventory, and enterprise activity. Transaction tools include automated bank feeds, recurring transactions, contra entries, and payment auto-categorisation. The service provides real-time dashboards, reports, enterprise tagging, and Profit and Loss budgeting. It supports complex VAT rules and states that it complies with HMRC and Making Tax Digital requirements. Multiple users, accountants, and farm staff can share live data with role-based permissions. TELUS says financial information is encrypted on UK-hosted cloud infrastructure, with automated backups. CSV invoice data can be imported from Dext, AutoEntry, or other compatible services. Pricing is on request, and UK-based experts provide telephone, email, and training support.
