When Xero needs rescuing

Messy accounts are rarely caused by just one mistake.

Backlogs, poor migrations, broken integrations and inconsistent bookkeeping can compound over months or years.

Bank balances do not match

Xero differs from bank or card statements, leaving unexplained balances and unreconciled activity.

VAT cannot be trusted

Incorrect codes, duplicates, late claims or historic adjustments create compliance and submission risk.

Your Reports Look Wrong

Profit and loss, balance sheet, debtors or creditors do not reflect the commercial reality.

Migration issues remain

Opening balances, conversion journals or imported history were never fully reconciled.

Apps create discrepancies

Stripe, PayPal, ecommerce, expenses or inventory integrations post incomplete or duplicated entries.

Month-end is too slow

The team spends too much time finding errors instead of producing useful management information.

A controlled recovery

We find the cause—not just the visible symptoms.

Our specialists trace discrepancies back to their source, agree the correction approach and create a controlled route from unreliable records to a stable finance operation.

What we review and correct

Complete balance-sheet and bookkeeping remediation.

The final scope is based on the period, transaction volume, systems and evidence available.

Reconciliations

Bank, card and cash accounts

Bank accounts, credit cards, petty cash, PayPal, Stripe and multicurrency balances.

Working capital

Receivables and payables

Aged debtors, aged creditors, invoices, bills, credit notes, allocations and old balances.

Compliance

VAT, PAYE and tax balances

VAT coding and liabilities, payroll control accounts, pensions and corporation-tax balances.

Month-end

Accruals, prepayments and assets

Accruals, prepayments, overpayments, fixed assets, depreciation and recurring journals.

Data quality

Chart, contacts and conversion data

Chart of accounts, duplicate records, opening balances, conversion journals and tracking structure.

Reporting

Profit, balance sheet and management data

Corrected financial statements and a reporting structure aligned with management needs.

For online sellers

Sales-tax review for ecommerce businesses.

High-volume Shopify, Amazon, eBay and payment-platform data can create hidden reconciliation and tax risks.

Sales tax and VAT

Review marketplace activity, tax coding, OSS/IOSS treatment and liabilities across relevant channels.

Marketplace rules

Assess Amazon, eBay, Shopify and other platform postings against the correct accounting treatment.

Settlement flows

Reconcile gross sales, refunds, fees, reserves and net payouts back to the bank.

Tax validation

Check whether Xero tax rates and integrations are producing consistent results.

History review

Investigate prior periods where marketplace or payment data was incomplete or duplicated.

Process setup

Recommend A2X, Link My Books, Synder or improved workflows where appropriate.

 

Our clean-up process

Six stages from diagnosis to control.

No bulk changes without understanding the impact, supporting evidence and required approvals.

Assess

Review Xero, source evidence, affected periods and the decisions the data must support.

Diagnose

Identify root causes, quantify discrepancies and prioritise material risks.

Plan

Agree scope, responsibilities, dependencies and the correction method.

Correct

Reconcile accounts and process controlled corrections with a clear audit trail.

Validate

Re-run reports, verify control balances and review exceptions before sign-off.

Strengthen

Improve workflows, rules, integrations and ownership to protect data quality.

Explain every material change

Receive a clear summary of work completed, open items and recommendations.

Ongoing support

Retain us for bookkeeping, reporting, systems oversight or the first clean month-end.

The outcome

Accurate today. Better controlled tomorrow.

The goal is not a cosmetically tidy Xero file. It is a finance environment that reconciles, produces credible reports and can be maintained confidently after handover.
