Software and delivery

We fit around your firm

Software: Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks Online, and any other software. For other software, save exports such as a trial balance and reports in your shared storage.

Access: give us access the same way you would for a new staff accountant. Create a user for us in your accounting software, your document storage (such as Dropbox, Google Drive, SharePoint or Xero files) and your practice or job management system (such as XPM, Karbon or FYI). You control that user and can remove it at any time.

Paper records: Paper records are fine too. Scan the client's manual cash books, invoices and receipts, and send them to us by saving them in your shared storage. We process them.

Tax information: For tax information, give us access to your IRD or ATO online services, the same as you would for a staff member. Or send us the tax information we need, such as tax account statements and last year's return. We only read this information. We never file or lodge anything.

Your policies: send us your firm's policies, templates and preferences. We set the AI up to follow them on every job.

Delivery: in any format and any place you prefer. For example, inside your software (such as Xero Workpapers), a PDF pack, Excel workings, or saved to your own storage.
