Outsourced Bookkeeping Frequently Asked Questions
Can We Outsource Only Selected Bookkeeping Tasks?
Yes. You can outsource specific tasks such as bank and credit card reconciliations, accounts payable, accounts receivable, fixed asset records, GST and PAYG reconciliations, superannuation reconciliations or BAS and IAS preparation support. You do not need to move your entire bookkeeping function at once.
Do You Support Both Accounting Firms and Australian Businesses?
Yes. Accounting firms can use Accounting Gurus for client bookkeeping, white-label delivery, processing backlogs or ongoing offshore capacity. Australian businesses can engage us for day-to-day bookkeeping, reconciliations, reporting support and routine finance administration.
How Will Your Team Fit Into Our Existing Bookkeeping Workflow?
Before work begins, we agree on the scope, responsibilities, reporting schedule, system access and review points. Our offshore bookkeeping team then works within your existing processes, flags missing information and keeps outstanding queries visible until they are resolved.
Who Manages the Offshore Bookkeeping Work?
A Melbourne-based engagement lead coordinates priorities, deadlines, communication and delivery expectations. The offshore bookkeeping team completes the agreed processing, while your local contact manages queries, progress updates and any issues requiring attention.
Will We Retain Control of Payments, Approvals and Client Relationships?
Yes. Your business or accounting firm retains control of payment approvals, client communication, technical review and final lodgements. Accounting firms using third-party or offshore providers should also manage client disclosure, consent and supervisory obligations where required.
Can Your Team Prepare BAS and IAS Working Papers?
Yes. We can prepare BAS and IAS working papers, reconcile the relevant balances and organise supporting information for review. Final review and lodgement remain with your accountant, registered agent or authorised team member.
Can Support Scale During Backlogs, Staff Leave or Peak Periods?
Yes. Support can be increased for transaction backlogs, month-end pressure, staff leave, seasonal demand or additional client work, then adjusted again when the workload reduces.
What Bookkeeping Engagement Options Are Available?
You can choose dedicated bookkeeping staff, a structured service plan, a customised arrangement or pay-as-you-go support. The model can be matched to ongoing requirements, selected bookkeeping tasks or changing transaction volumes.
How Much Do Outsourced Bookkeeping Services Cost?
Accounting Gurus’ outsourced bookkeeping support starts from A$15 per hour. Existing bookkeeping packages are also available where a defined service level better suits your requirements.
How Is Financial and Client Information Protected?
Financial and client information is handled through controlled access, documented security procedures and systems aligned with Essential Eight Maturity Level Two and ISO/IEC 27001:2022. Access is limited to authorised team members involved in the engagement.
