Cloud Bookkeeping, VAT and Payroll FAQ

Cloud bookkeeping means that you use a finance system, we recommend QuickBooks or Xero, to record all your income and expenses in the business. The benefits of using a cloud-based system are:

  • You can see a snapshot of your business finances on your laptop/Mac or mobile anywhere at any time
  • We can see the same information as you and can help with any queries if you do your own bookkeeping
  • You can easily upload your business expense receipts to the cloud-based system using your mobile phone or forwarding on an email, making sure that you never lose the paperwork
  • It can help with any business decisions as you have your up-to-date business finances just a click away.
  • It helps us to complete your business’ year-end work quickly meaning that you know your tax bill early and can save if you need to
  • Reduced paper usage and waste

Yes absolutely. We will train you to be able to complete the bookkeeping for your business. It is a mandatory requirement of being a client of Troy Accounting that we train you.

This means that we know you have the correct knowledge to accurately complete your bookkeeping up to the standard we require so that we can help you.

If you already complete your bookkeeping we will review with you the data in the cloud-based system, being QuickBooks or Xero, and will provide feedback and hints and tips on how things could be streamlined to make things easier and more accurate.

We will review the data in the cloud-based system to check its accuracy. We will chat through with you anything that we find and how we can correct anything that isn’t okay.

There is nothing to worry about as “you don’t know what you don’t know” and we’ve studied for years and still complete training every year to stay on top of all the rules and regulations. We’re here to help you even if things are a bit mismatched initially.

We can update anything that needs to be amended and will let you know how we can help save you time and streamline your bookkeeping. We also offer further training so that you can have confidence in your bookkeeping work.

If you use a different cloud-based system that is not QuickBooks or Xero we will chat to you about whether the system that you are currently using is sufficient and accurate for your business requirements. We will also let you know of any challenges we may face when completing your year-end work if you use a different system.

If you choose to migrate across from another system to QuickBooks or Xero, then we can manage this process for you.

If you use excel or paper-based accounting currently then we will migrate your business to QuickBooks or Xero. If the business is part way through the year, we could migrate the current year data of income and expenses into the cloud-based systems.

Yes. We can complete your bookkeeping each month and your VAT return each quarter.

You will need to provide us with your business expense receipts and bank statements each month so that we can ensure that all the correct business expenses are claimed and accurately recognised.

We will train you to raise the invoices to your customers and how to chase for any missing payments. We will let you know each month which customers you may need to chat to if they haven’t paid.

Every quarter we will double check all the transactions in the cloud-based finance system before we send across a copy of your businesses VAT return for your approval. We will run through any queries you may have on your VAT return and then submit on behalf of the business when we have received your approval.

To be able to complete your business payroll you must stay up to date with the payroll rules and regulations and employment law so that you ensure that the business payroll is correct, and all your employees are paid accurately.
