When completing a Xero course with us you will be asked to work in the Xero Demo Company. Data has been pre-populated in the Demo Company account and this will allow you to practice specific actions, such as reconciling the bank, paying an invoice etc..
To first access the Demo Company, click on the Company Name at the top left and then click on "My Xero".
Once you click on the "My Xero" option you will be taken to a new screen. This is where all the Xero accounts you have access to will be listed, including your trial and any expired trials.
At the bottom of this screen you will see the option to "Try the Demo Company", to create the Demo Company you will need to click on this link (shown below):
As soon as you click this option you will be taken to the Demo Company and the next time you log in to Xero, Xero will remember the last Xero account you were in, so if you were working in the Demo Company and then logged out, the next time you log in you will be taken to the Demo Company and there will be no need to select this from the Account name at the top left. If you were in your Trial account then you will need to click on the account name and select the Demo Company as outlined above.
