Core bookkeeping
Bookkeeping
Ongoing recording, coding and reconciliation of business transactions, delivered through a secure online workspace.
Who it suits
Sole traders, companies, partnerships and trusts that want a defined monthly or quarterly bookkeeping engagement. Suitability still depends on volume, software and the condition of the file.
The problem it addresses
Transactions accumulate across bank accounts, invoices and bills. Without a maintained file, reporting and activity statements become slower and less reliable.

- Transaction coding within the selected package limit
- Reconciliation of included bank and credit-card accounts
- A customer checklist and document centre
- A bookkeeping report for the agreed period
Excluded
- Tax advice and tax-agent services
- BAS lodgement unless a verified BAS agent is engaged
- Unlimited transactions
- Payroll unless it is quoted separately
What you need to supply

- Answers to coding questions
How it is delivered
Work is done in your accounting file after access is granted through the provider's invitation. Progress is visible in the portal.
Pricing
Monthly package or a written quote when the file is outside the published limits.
The monthly fee is recurring. Setup, catch-up and extra entities are one-off or separately quoted. Nothing outside the accepted scope is added at checkout.
Turnaround and dependencies
A current monthly file is planned around the agreed close. A backlog is scheduled only after the outstanding months are known.

When a person needs to assess the file
Required when volume, entities, currencies or the condition of the books exceed a fixed package.

Bookkeeping records transactions. It is not tax advice, financial advice or a substitute for a registered tax or BAS agent.

Do I have to use a particular accounting program?
Xero, MYOB and QuickBooks Online can be used where the file and access method are supported. The engagement does not require you to send a password.
What happens if I exceed the transaction limit?
The work is flagged for a quote, upgrade or written authorisation. An extra fee is not created automatically.
