Bookkeeping support, one service at a time.
Accounts payable and receivable, and payroll support, delivered in the software you already run.
Finbryn's services for Australian businesses cover accounts payable and receivable and payroll support, run in Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks Online. Each service page lists exactly what you receive, the software involved and, where a lodgement or a BAS-related task is required, which registered agent handles it rather than us.
Bookkeeping
Books, reconciled every week
Monthly bookkeeping in QuickBooks Online, Xero or the platform you already run: every transaction sorted into categories, every bank and card account reconciled, and a clean set of reports each month.
- Monthly bookkeepingOngoing monthly bookkeeping: transactions sorted into categories, accounts reconciled and month-end reports delivered in the software you already use.
- Cash basis bookkeepingBooks kept on a cash basis, recording income and expenses when money actually moves, for owners who want simple books that match their bank balance.
- Accrual basis bookkeepingBooks kept on an accrual basis, matching income and expenses to the period they were earned or incurred, so reports reflect the real state of the business.
- Catch-up and cleanup bookkeepingMonths or years of books brought up to date and reconciled, with a written record of every adjustment, so monthly bookkeeping can start from a clean base.
- Bank and credit card reconciliationEvery bank, card and payment-processor account reconciled line by line against its statement, so the balance in your books always matches the balance at the institution.
- Chart of accounts designA chart of accounts built around how your business actually operates, so reports answer real questions instead of forcing everything into generic categories.
- Multi-currency bookkeepingBookkeeping for businesses that bill, pay or hold funds in more than one currency, with exchange gains and losses tracked separately from operating results.
- Inventory accountingInventory tracked from purchase through sale, with cost of goods sold calculated properly instead of estimated, on a periodic or perpetual basis.
- Fixed asset registerA running register of equipment, vehicles and other fixed assets, with depreciation calculated and posted on a set schedule so the balance sheet stays accurate.
- Intercompany accountingBookkeeping across two or more related entities, with intercompany loans, charges and transfers tracked and eliminated so consolidated reports are not overstated.
- Class and location trackingTransactions tagged by class, location, property or department, so profit and loss can be sliced by the parts of the business that actually matter to you.
- Receipt capture with Dext and HubdocReceipts and bills captured through Dext or Hubdoc and matched to the right transaction automatically, so paperwork stops piling up at month end.
- QuickBooks Online bookkeepingFull-service bookkeeping delivered inside QuickBooks Online, in a file that belongs to you, using the app connections and reports the platform already offers.
- Xero bookkeepingFull-service bookkeeping delivered inside Xero, in a file that belongs to you, using Xero's own bank feeds, rules and reporting.
Accounts payable and receivable
Bills paid on time, invoices collected on time
Vendor bills processed and paid, customer invoices sent and chased, and both ledgers reconciled every week so cash in and cash out are never a guess.
- InvoicingCustomer invoices are created and sent on the schedule your contracts call for, with terms, quantities and pricing checked against the underlying agreement before anything goes out.
- CollectionsOverdue invoices are followed up on a set cadence, with reminders sent and calls logged, so slow-paying customers get consistent attention without you having to chase them yourself.
- Aged receivables reportAn aged receivables report is prepared each month, showing what customers owe and how overdue it is, so you can see collection risk before it becomes a cash problem.
- Cash applicationIncoming customer payments are matched to the right invoice and posted to the correct account, so accounts receivable reflects what is actually still owed.
- Three-way matchPurchase orders, receiving records and vendor invoices are checked against each other before a bill is approved for payment, catching price and quantity errors before money moves.
Month-end close and reporting
Books closed, numbers you can read
A repeatable monthly close that ties every account back to source records, then turns the result into management reports, KPI dashboards and board-ready packages. Built for businesses that need numbers fast enough to act on, not just file away.
- Month-end closeA repeatable monthly close that ties every account back to source records and hands you a finished set of financials on a predictable date each month.
- Management reportsMonthly profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow packaged with a plain-English narrative so the numbers explain themselves before anyone has to ask a question.
- KPI dashboardsA small set of metrics that actually run the business, tracked month over month in one place instead of scattered across spreadsheets.
- Board packsA board-ready package built from the same numbers as your monthly close, delivered on a schedule that leaves you time to read it before the meeting.
- Budget vs. actualActual results lined up against the budget every month, with the gap explained in plain language rather than left for you to work out on your own.
- Variance analysisA closer look at why a number moved: price, volume, timing or a one-off, so a variance on a report turns into an answer instead of a question.
- AccrualsExpenses and revenue recorded in the period they actually happen, even when the invoice or cash has not moved yet, so the month's numbers reflect that month's activity.
- Cash flow statementsA statement of cash flows built from your actual accrual books, showing where cash came from and went across operating, investing and financing activity.
Payroll support
Payroll, coordinated and reconciled
Coordination with the payroll platform you already run pay through, plus the accounting work around it: pay-run review, journal entries, contractor payments and benefit deductions reconciled to your books every period.
- Australian payroll coordination: STP and Payday SuperCoordination support for payroll reported through Single Touch Payroll, including the shift to paying superannuation alongside wages rather than quarterly.
- Contractor paymentsPayment tracking and year-end reporting support for independent contractors and freelancers, so information-return data is accurate and ready before filing deadlines.
- Payroll journals and reconciliationsPayroll journal entries recorded each pay period and reconciled against the payroll platform's reports, so wages, withholdings and benefit deductions match your general ledger.
- Benefits administration supportAdministrative support for employee benefits: tracking sign-ups and deduction rates and reconciling provider invoices, so benefit costs are recorded correctly and match what was withheld from pay.
Tax preparation support
Filing-ready, prepared by people who already know your books

- R&D tax credit preparation supportPreparation support for documenting and calculating a research and development credit, built from project records and your bookkeeping so the position is defensible.
- Estimated tax payment supportSupport for calculating and scheduling quarterly estimated tax payments so a large bill never arrives as a surprise at filing time.

A finance lead, on a part-time basis
Fractional CFO and financial planning work: cash forecasting, budgeting, KPI design, investor and lender reporting, and support through a raise, an acquisition or a sale.
- Fractional CFOA senior finance lead who works your numbers on a part-time basis: monthly reviews, board and investor prep, and a second opinion before a big decision.
- 13-week cash flow forecastA rolling week-by-week cash forecast that shows what is coming in, what is going out, and where the next 13 weeks get tight.
- BudgetingAn annual budget built from your real numbers, broken out by month and department, that becomes the baseline every later report is measured against.
- FP&AOngoing financial planning and analysis: budget-to-actual tracking, margin and cost analysis, and the monthly pack that explains why the numbers moved.

- Exit readinessA review of what a buyer's diligence team will see in your books, done before you go to market, so surprises get fixed on your own timeline instead of theirs.
- Lender covenant reportingRecurring reports built to your loan agreement's exact definitions, delivered on the schedule your lender requires, so a covenant test never comes as a surprise.
Audit and compliance support
Books ready before the auditor shows up
Books, schedules and documentation built to hold up under an external auditor, a grant funder or a readiness review, prepared by our accounting team so the audit itself moves faster and with fewer follow-up requests.
- Audit-ready booksMonthly and year-end books maintained with the support and schedules an external auditor expects to see on day one, so fieldwork starts without a scramble to reconstruct records.
- PBC list managementThe auditor's provided-by-client request list tracked item by item, with documents gathered, organized and delivered on schedule instead of chased down in the final week.
- Working paper preparationSupporting schedules and reconciliations built the way an auditor expects to see them, cross-referenced to the trial balance, so review comments come back with fewer open questions.
- Internal controls documentationFinancial process controls, such as who approves a payment or reconciles an account, written down and walked through with your team, so an auditor or funder can see how the numbers are actually produced.

For accounting and tax firms
Capacity for firms, white-labeled
Back-office capacity for accounting, bookkeeping and tax firms: white-label bookkeeping, busy-season overflow, dedicated staff pods and review support, delivered under your firm's name.
- White-label bookkeepingMonthly bookkeeping produced under your firm's own name and templates, so your clients see your brand while our team handles sorting transactions into categories, reconciling and reporting behind it.
- Busy season tax prep supportPreparation-support capacity for firms during filing season: source documents put in order, workpapers built and draft returns assembled for your credentialed preparers to review and sign.
- Dedicated staff podsA named, fixed group of accountants assigned to your firm alone, working your files on your schedule, rather than a rotating pool shared across other engagements.
- Overflow cleanup projectsFixed-scope cleanup and catch-up projects your firm can hand off when a client's books are too far behind for your own staff to absorb without disrupting other work.
- Review supportA second set of eyes on files your firm has already prepared, checking ties, disclosures and workpaper completeness before they reach your partner for sign-off.
- Outsourced capacity planningPlanning work for firms deciding how much bookkeeping and prep capacity to hand to an outsourced pod, including pilot scoping, staffing ramp and handoff design before any files move.
Software and migrations
Set up right, connected right
Setup, cleanup and migration work for the accounting platform and the tools around it: QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite and Sage Intacct, plus the integrations that feed them, so the software matches how the business actually runs.
- QuickBooks setup, cleanup and migrationA new QuickBooks Online file built to fit the business, or an existing file cleaned up and reconciled, plus migration from spreadsheets or another platform without losing history.
- Xero setup and migrationA Xero file configured for the business from day one, or a move into Xero from another platform, with the chart of accounts, bank feeds and history carried across cleanly.

- Dext and Hubdoc integrationReceipt and bill capture connected through Dext or Hubdoc so paperwork reaches the accounting file automatically instead of sitting in an inbox or a shoebox.
- Stripe and Shopify integrationStripe and Shopify payment data connected and reconciled into the accounting file, so processor fees, refunds and payouts are visible instead of buried inside a single deposit line.
Special situations
For the books that do not fit a monthly close
Bookkeeping for the situations a standard monthly close does not cover: years of backlog, missing records, a platform shutdown, a dormant entity, a wind-down, or several locations that need one consolidated view.
- Multi-year catch-upBringing several years of unreconciled or missing books current in one structured engagement, scoped and timed before the work starts.
- Records reconstructionRebuilding a business's financial history from bank statements, receipts and other source documents when the original books are incomplete, lost or unreliable.
- Dormant company bookkeepingBookkeeping and reporting for an entity that is registered but not actively trading, so required filings can still be prepared and stay current until it reactivates or winds down.
- Wind-down exit packA structured close-out of the books and records when a business is winding down or dissolving, so the final return, the final state filings and the exit itself all rest on numbers that reconcile.
- Franchise and multi-entity consolidationBookkeeping across multiple franchise units or related entities, each location's books kept separately and then rolled up into one consolidated view.

Questions
Questions about our services
Do you lodge BAS or handle GST filing?
No. We prepare and reconcile the figures. Lodgement is handled by your own appointed tax agent.
What software do you work in?
Xero and QuickBooks Online are the two most common choices, MYOB where that is already part of your stack, alongside tools like Dext and Employment Hero.
Can I start with just one service?
Yes. You can start with accounts payable and receivable and add payroll support once it makes sense.
Is pricing shown in AUD?
Yes. See the Pricing page for plans and a calculator quoted in Australian dollars.
Can services be combined, such as bookkeeping and payroll together?
Yes. Most businesses combine bookkeeping with payroll or tax preparation support, scoped and priced together once we understand which combination fits your current setup.
Do you offer a one-off project instead of an ongoing plan?
Yes, for catch-up, software migration, audit support and similar work. Ongoing monthly plans and one-off projects are priced differently and can run side by side.
