How our Xero bookkeeping service works
Xero bookkeeping means your accounts are kept in Xero, the cloud accounting software, by a qualified bookkeeper instead of by you. Your bank transactions flow into Xero through bank feeds. Your bookkeeper codes and reconciles them, so the figures you see are always current.
What happens each month
- Your dedicated bookkeeper reconciles every bank and credit card account in Xero.
- Each transaction is coded to the right account, so your reports mean something.
- Your financial reports for the month are delivered by the 25th.
- Once a quarter you get 30 minutes of CFO Office Hours to talk through the numbers.
Why outsource your books
How much more profitable could your business be if you had the time to focus on the actual business? Outsourcing gives you qualified bookkeepers without ever having to hire them. You avoid the cost of an in-house salary, and the service scales with you: choose a plan for 250, 400 or 1,000 transactions a month and move between them as your volume changes.
As a Xero Gold Partner, our team knows the software inside out. We also pass on VIP service and pre-negotiated discounts from our technology partners.
Add-ons when you need them
The monthly service covers the core records. If you want more taken off your desk, add bill pay, invoicing or collections. If your books have fallen behind, our historical clean-up service brings them up to date at an hourly rate, so you start from accurate numbers.
Xero bookkeeping and GST
Accurate books make GST simple. Because every transaction is already coded in Xero, your GST return can be prepared from the same records, and our tax team can file it for you. Our accounting team then uses the same Xero file for your annual accounts, so nothing is entered twice.
