Working inside your own organization
You keep the Xero subscription under your own account and add us as an advisor at whatever access level you choose, revocable at any time. The organization and its history stay yours regardless of who is doing the monthly work.
What we set up
For a fresh file, we configure the chart of accounts and bank rules that speed up coding over time. For an existing organization, we tidy what is already there, cleaning up duplicate rules and unused accounts rather than starting over unnecessarily.
Monthly work
Each month, transactions are categorized against your chart of accounts, every bank, card and payment-processor account is reconciled, and the close produces a profit and loss, balance sheet and open-items list inside Xero itself.
App connections that matter
Xero connects well to Dext or Hubdoc for receipt capture, and to A2X for ecommerce sellers reconciling marketplace payouts. We turn on the integrations your business actually uses rather than every app in the Xero marketplace.
Migrating in
If you are moving from QuickBooks, another platform, or spreadsheets, we migrate the chart of accounts, contacts, open invoices and bills, and prior-period balances, so the switch does not cost you historical comparability. Opening balances are agreed with you before the first month closes on the new file.
What stays constant
Whichever app connections your business ends up using, the monthly standard does not change: every transaction categorized, every account reconciled, and a close you can hand to a lender or tax preparer without a follow-up call.
Questions
Frequently asked questions: Xero bookkeeping
Does Xero handle multiple currencies well?
Yes, and where your business bills or pays in more than one currency, we combine Xero's multi-currency feature with our own multi-currency bookkeeping process.
Can you work with a Xero file that already has years of history?
Yes. We review what is already set up and tidy it rather than rebuilding the organization from scratch.
Do you use Xero's bank rules to speed up coding?
Yes, tuned to your actual transaction patterns after the first month or two, so routine coding gets faster without losing accuracy.
What does xero bookkeeping actually include, month to month?
Xero bookkeeping covers a Xero account set up or tidied under your own subscription, along with bank rules and app connections configured to speed up coding. The work runs inside Xero, Dext, Hubdoc or A2X, the file stays under your own subscription, and a senior principal reviews the output before it reaches you each period.
What access do you need to start xero bookkeeping?
View or edit access to Xero, Dext, Hubdoc or A2X is enough to begin; nothing about your existing subscription or login changes on our side. Any additional access needed for a specific deliverable, such as a bank portal or receipt inbox, is agreed with you first, and the scope is set out in your engagement letter.
Do you need to be added as our advisor in Xero?
Yes, at whatever access level you choose, and you can revoke it at any time.
Can you move us from another platform into Xero?
Yes. We migrate the chart of accounts, contacts, open invoices and bills, and prior-period balances.
How is xero bookkeeping priced?
Pricing for xero bookkeeping depends on your transaction volume, the software you use, and how much cleanup is needed before ongoing work starts. Current ranges are published on the pricing page, and your exact fee is confirmed in writing before anything begins.
What software works with xero bookkeeping?
Xero bookkeeping runs inside Xero or Dext, whichever you already use. If you are not yet set up in either, we can configure a file in your name so you keep ownership of it once the engagement is under way.
