Bookkeeping Services 

Bookkeeping Services 

Sherwin Currid provides bookkeeping services to many small businesses. These services involve the keeping of records of financial transactions from which the financial statements of the business are prepared. This includes compiling information from invoices and receipts as well as payroll and timesheet information. 
 
Traditionally, bookkeeping ledgers used to be compiled manually by bookkeeping clerks using double entry bookkeeping. Clients used to keep paper copies of invoices and other accounting records which would then be passed manually to the appointed bookkeeper who would then update the accounting ledgers on a periodic basis. This whole process was time intensive which was therefore costly, open to human error. Because of the time involved there was inevitably a delay in bringing a company’s financial records up to date which in turn meant that business decisions were potentially being made on out of date information. 
 
Nowadays cloud based accounting software is increasingly used to perform this task on a much more efficient basis which has the impact of: 
 
Bringing the costs of bookkeeping down 
Providing a much simpler bookkeeping service 
Reducing the risk of error in accounting information by using of automation 
Giving access to real time business performance information 
Enabling better business decisions to be made

Which cloud accounting software suits your business? 
There are many types of Cloud Based accounting software available today and it is important to select the right solution for your small business bookkeeping. Sherwin Currid works with all of the main providers and can provide advice on which to choose. 
 
The decision on which is the best software to use depends on many factors, including the size of your business, how your transactions are undertaken (are they still manual or are they automated), how you want your records structured for reporting purposes e.t.c. Sometimes a combination of products may provide the best solution, as some products such as Dext are designed to be connected to the main software. 
 
The cost of the solution is also a consideration, however we can often bundle the product with the provision of accounting services and given the efficiencies to all parties of working with these products, the overall cost of accounting services can be reduced.
