Accounting is the record of financial transactions and the preparation of accounting reports^[1]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accounting. Accounting used to be done manually by bookkeepers and accountants. However, accounting has not evolved thanks to technology. We now have software like Xero that automates a lot of the mundane aspects such as adding income and expense transactions.

Accounting is usually done by accounting firms, companies, or governments. Financial accounting involves the recording of financial transactions and reports for use in external reporting under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). With accounting, a business owner can get an overview of a company’s activities, cash flow health, assets and debts.

Xero accounting services offer businesses an affordable option for easy-to-use account software and accounting bookkeeping services.

There are many accounting software options available for businesses. But Xero is a favorite among small business owners because it offers an easy-to-use accounting interface. It also has dozens of features that allow you to track your profit and loss as well as manage expenses easily. For example, it has a feature that automatically adds your income and expense transactions from your OCBC corporate bank account. It only take a couple of minute to verify your bank account with Xero and this will save hours of your bookkeeper’s time.

Transactions can be imported directly into the system without having to type in each individual transaction by hand. This makes the accounting Xero platform efficient and accurate allowing you to spend less time on accounting tasks and more time focusing on growing your company’s success!

Many people get confused by the “cloud” in cloud accounting. It actually just means “accessible over the internet”. For example, think Google Word versus Microsoft Word. Both have very similar functions by the key selling point is that a Microsoft Word document can only be accessed through your computer. On the other hand, you can access any Google Word document through the internet by logging into your Google account.

The same goes for Xero. You can access your Xero accounting software from any computer on any device. Your transactions aren’t kept locally on your computer – they’re kept on the cloud! In this case, that just means that it’s kept on Xero’s servers. Think of how your Facebook posts are kept on Facebook’s servers.

Engaging WLP Group with our Xero accounting services is as easy as meeting with our accountants for our first meeting. As mentioned above, bring along all important financial documents and login details of any financial accounting software that you’re currently using. Please bring along an IT administrator or someone who can show us your financial data if your company uses an ERP.

Xero cloud accounting is affordable for small businesses and easy to implement into existing accounting systems. If not, our bookkeepers can help to transfer all your transaction data over to Xero. But many accounting softwares such as Wave can be easily transferred to Xero. It works on any device – laptop or mobile phone, anywhere in the world! There are no contracts either – just pay monthly when you use it.

For Xero online accounting services, you just need bookkeepers. They will take care of the accounting and finance functions so your business can focus on what it does best!

Xero cloud accounting services can be used by any type of company. Not every company needs an expensive accounting firm to handle their bookkeeping. It doesn’t make sense for most small businesses in Singapore and is completely unnecessary. You’ll be treated the same regardless of whether you’re a sole proprietor or a large MNC. All your transaction data will be safely stored on Xero’s cloud accounting software. You can always make manual backups to store on your local computer too but everything is backed up on Xero’s servers as well. Your data stored on Xero means that its on multiple servers run by Xero around the world.

Additionally you can now access your financial information anytime with Xero online accounting services. This is perfect for busy business owners and accountants who want round-the-clock access.

Accounting isn’t just about completing forms anymore. A lot of manual work has been automated in accounting. Think about bookkeeping a decade ago. Before, you had to manuaally write down all transactions into a physical book. Now, you can have all your transactions automatically added to your Xero cloud account through your bank’s API. (Note: This is only application for DBS at the moment. Other banks like Citibank does not have this feature.)

It enables companies to make informed decisions based on data rather than instinct alone.

You can sleep soundly with Xero’s up-to-date security features that you’ll get from Xero accounting services. That combined with real-time bank feeds – meaning transactions are imported directly into the system without having to type them all in individually by hand – makes keeping track of your accounting easier than ever!

It’s very important that your accounting system is compatible with local laws and regulations. Singapore is notorious for its heavy fines. And you don’t want to select an accounting software that you will have to switch out of because of regulations. Xero Singapore is on the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore’s (IRAS) register of compliant accounting software. SimplePay, the payroll add-on we recommend, is on the IRAS approved payroll software vendor list and also meets the Central Provident Fund (CPF) e-submission requirements.

Xero is actively working on partnerships with local banks such as UOB, DBS and OCBC. Xero also has bank fees with international banks like Citibank, Standard Chartered, ANZ and HSBC.

A report released by Xero shows that Singaporean SMEs are the most likely to adopt to new technologies when compared with other countries like the USA and the UK.
