Xero Accounting Software for Canadian Businesses

Cloud Accounting Designed for Modern Businesses

Xero is a cloud-based accounting platform that gives business owners, bookkeepers and accountants access to financial information from virtually anywhere.

Instead of maintaining separate spreadsheets, paper records and disconnected accounting files, Xero helps bring important financial information into one centralized system.

Businesses can use Xero to manage areas such as invoicing, bank reconciliation, bills, reporting, sales-tax records, cash-flow visibility and integrations with other business applications.

At Scan Universal Solutions, we go beyond simply opening a Xero account. We help configure, organize and maintain Xero around your actual business requirements.

Configure Xero Around Your Canadian Accounting Requirements

Canadian businesses deal with different tax registrations, reporting requirements and transaction types. Scan Universal Solutions can help configure your accounting workflow for applicable Canadian sales taxes such as GST, HST, QST and other provincial sales-tax requirements where relevant to your business.

Rather than relying on software alone to determine tax treatment, our team helps establish suitable accounting and tax-code workflows according to the nature of your transactions. This can make your bookkeeping more organized and tax-period preparation more efficient.

Where filings are required, our tax compliance service works from the same records, so nothing is reconstructed at the deadline.

Turn Receipts and Bills Into Organized Digital Records

Paper receipts, emailed invoices and supplier bills can quickly become difficult to manage. Hubdoc can work alongside Xero to help businesses collect and organize financial documents electronically.

This creates a cleaner document trail and makes it easier for the bookkeeping team to maintain organized records throughout the year.

Connect Your Accounting With the Systems You Already Use

Many businesses operate several platforms. Sales may come through one system, payments through another, payroll somewhere else and receipts through email. Xero can integrate with a wide range of third-party business applications through the Xero App Store.

Our role is to help determine which integrations actually add value instead of connecting applications simply because they are available.

Xero for Canadian Companies Doing Business Internationally

Canadian businesses increasingly buy and sell across borders. For businesses using supported Xero plans and multi-currency features, Xero can assist with maintaining transactions in different currencies and reporting foreign-currency activity.

Scan Universal can help businesses establish suitable workflows for companies dealing with currencies such as CAD, USD, EUR and GBP, as well as other supported currencies. This can be particularly useful for Canadian companies working with U.S. customers, overseas suppliers or international operations.

Do Not Want to Manage Xero Yourself? We Can Do It for You.

Xero is a tool. Accurate bookkeeping still requires regular attention. Scan Universal Solutions provides ongoing bookkeeping services for Canadian businesses using Xero — see our full bookkeeping services.

Instead of hiring an additional internal bookkeeping resource, businesses can access an experienced external bookkeeping team.
