New Member - New Accountant

[XYZ_Accounting]

Hi All,

I'm new to the forum so I thought I should say hi to all.

I'm also new to this profession, I'm due to start my first job as an accountant.

I do like to ask few questions.
As a management and/or financial accountant, what excel functions or training should I learn?
I am not sure what is used the most as this is my first accounting role.

If you have any feedback, it would be much appreciated. I'd like to do some training before I start the new job.

Thanks in Advance.

Hello and welcome aboard!

Good overall knowledge of excel is very useful - make sure you are very familiar with all the basic uses - especially formulae. Pivot tables can be useful too, but they are more advanced. Best to get to grips with everything else first.
