I signed up for DATEV Basics because I wanted a simple way to handle my freelance bookkeeping, and this course delivered. The casual tone of the videos made the complex parts of DATEV feel approachable – I especially liked the hands‑on demo where we built a client invoice from scratch. After finishing, I could confidently run the year‑end reports for my own limited company, which saved me a trip to an accountant. The material is well‑organised and the downloadable cheat‑sheets are a real plus. All in all, a solid learning experience that hit the mark for me.

The DATEV Basics course at Stanmore School of Business was exactly what I needed to reach my goal of mastering German accounting software. The step‑by‑step videos walked me through setting up a new client file, importing trial balances, and generating the standard DATEV export for my CPA. I was able to apply the payroll module immediately at my firm, reducing manual entry time by 30 %. The course materials are up‑to‑date and include real‑world case studies that make the concepts stick. Overall, the instruction was professional, clear, and directly relevant to my day‑to‑day work – I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

Wow! The DATEV Basics course blew me away with its enthusiasm and depth. I was looking to streamline the payroll process for my tech startup, and the module on DATEV LODAS was a game‑changer – I set up the entire employee roster in just one afternoon and processed the first payroll without any hiccups. The instructor’s energetic explanations and the real‑time lab exercises kept me engaged, and the downloadable templates helped me customize the software for Indian tax regulations. I’m thrilled with the practical skills I gained and would recommend this course to anyone wanting to master DATEV quickly.

The DATEV Basics program offered a detailed, methodical approach that suited my learning style perfectly. Each module broke down complex functions – such as setting up cost centres, processing VAT returns, and generating the DATEV export file – into clear, actionable steps. I appreciated the inclusion of real‑world South African accounting scenarios, which allowed me to practice reconciling bank statements using DATEV’s interface. The quality of the PDFs and the interactive quizzes reinforced my understanding, and by the end of the course I could confidently train junior staff on the software. A thorough and valuable learning experience.
