Many people in business don’t want to be bogged-down by debits and credits, and to spend their spare time dealing with invoices, bank statements, VAT returns and other business forms. By passing-on the bookkeeping responsibilities their focus returns to running a successful enterprise.

Typically you hand-over the primary documents (invoices, bank statements etc.) on a regular basis. This can be achieved by direct collection or by mail or by drop-off. If appropriate, this may be done electronically by e-mail or fax.

The business transactions are then recorded for you in order to maintain accurate, up-to-date and balanced accounting records (on computer). Various accounting tasks, depending on what work has been agreed, can then be undertaken with appropriate reporting provided to you.

It is also possible to undertake some work at client’s premises and this may be of particular relevance if documents are to be kept in-situ or if an in-house computer system is in operation.
