Reliable bookkeeping supports every part of your business

SERVICES

At Vanzwan Accounting Plus, our bookkeeping services focus on keeping records accurate, compliant and easy to manage throughout the year. As a primarily Xero-based practice, we streamline administration, reduce manual handling and maintain clear, consistent communication with clients. We also support MYOB, QuickBooks and other systems where required.

Who We Help:

• Small and medium businesses across Australia

• OSHC, care sector and not-for-profit providers

• Start-ups establishing new systems and processes

• Growing businesses transitioning from manual records to cloud accounting

• Established entities seeking cleaner workflows and reliable monthly reporting

Accounts Payable and Receivable

Keeping on top of what you owe (payables) and what you’re owed (receivables) is essential for stable cash flow and confident decision-making. We help you stay organised with a clear, consistent process that ensures supplier invoices are recorded correctly, and customer payments are tracked and followed up where needed.


This includes:
▪Entering supplier bills and customer invoices
▪Matching payments and receipts
▪Maintaining accurate aged payables and receivables reports
▪Supporting follow-up processes
▪Daily reporting activities

 

Accurate receivables and payables records reduce surprises, improve cash flow visibility, and support cleaner reporting for BAS and year-end accounts.

Reconciliations are the process of confirming your accounting records match your real-world bank and business activity. When reconciliations are incomplete (or inconsistent), your financial reports can be misleading, meaning you may make decisions on incorrect information.


We assist with:
▪Daily, weekly or monthly reconciliations through secure bank feeds
▪Identifying and correcting miscoding’s and resolving discrepancies including missing transactions, duplicates, and unallocated payments
▪Reviewing accounts for completeness
▪Preparing reconciliations that align with BAS and year-end reporting


Consistent reconciliations create a stable foundation for payroll accuracy, BAS reporting, and reliable financial statements.

Payroll should be accurate, timely, and compliant, your team is your success, without becoming a weekly stress point. We provide end-to-end payroll support that keeps employee records correct, pay runs consistent, and reporting obligations met.


We provide support for:
▪Employee setup and onboarding – including correct pay rates, allowances, leave accruals, and employment details
▪Weekly, fortnightly or monthly pay runs tailored to how your business operates
▪Leave, allowances and deduction tracking
▪Superannuation calculations and processing
▪Single touch payroll (STP) submissions ensuring payroll reporting is lodged correctly with the ATO


We keep payroll compliant, timely, clearly documented and easy to understand so you and your employees can rely on it.

We prepare and support the lodgement of Superannuation Guarantee (SG) contributions by the required due dates. This includes helping coordinate clearing house processes, checking employee super details, and ensuring records remain accurate and consistent with payroll reporting.

 

This reduces the risk of missed payments, administration issues, or compliance concerns, while helping your payroll records stay clean and complete.

Accurate BAS reporting starts with correct bookkeeping. We support your GST and BAS reporting by ensuring your transactions are coded correctly and reconciliations are complete, so your tax lodgements are based on reliable information.


Our bookkeeping support includes:
▪Reviewing GST treatment across income and expenses including common GST classification issues
▪Checking payroll data and PAYG withholding figures
▪Preparing reconciliations and supporting reports used by our accounting team for BAS lodgement

 

This creates a smoother BAS process, reduces rework, and supports consistent compliance throughout the year.

A clear month-end process helps you understand performance, spot issues early, and track progress over time. We can assist with month-end tasks and reporting, so you have reliable figures to work from, not rough estimates.


We assist with:
▪Completing month-end reconciliations
▪Preparing profit and loss statements, balance sheets and variance reports where appropriate
▪Providing aged payables and receivables summaries to support cash flow decisions
▪Offering tailored reporting for OSHC providers or other industry needs including structured summaries that support internal reporting and planning


Well-prepared reports help you understand profitability, trends, and financial stability—so decisions are based on facts, not guesswork.

As a Xero-focused practice, we help you get the most from your bookkeeping software through clean setup, practical automation, and support that suits your level of confidence.


We assist with:
▪Xero file setup and configuration including chart of accounts and GST settings
▪Bank rules, tracking categories and automation tools
▪Receipt capture and workflow recommendations
▪Hands-on support for you to understand what matters and how to stay on top of the basics

 

We also support MYOB and QuickBooks and other software where preferred and can help you improve consistency across systems.

If your bookkeeping has fallen behind, or you suspect it isn’t accurate, we can help bring it back under control. Catch-up and clean-up work is about rebuilding confidence in your numbers so you can lodge, report, and plan properly.


We help by:
▪Reconstructing missing information and identifying gaps in the records
▪Correcting miscoding’s and unreconciled balances including cleaning up account allocations
▪Preparing accurate data for BAS and tax lodgement reducing delays and stress

 

The result is a clean, reliable starting point for ongoing bookkeeping and better financial visibility moving forward.

We provide specialised bookkeeping support for Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) providers, with an understanding of the sector’s payroll variability, staffing structures, and reporting needs.


Our OSHC support includes:
▪Tailoring coding and reporting structures aligned with funding, staffing, and operational requirements
▪Managing variable payroll cycles including leave, allowances, and changing rosters
▪Preparing bookkeeping records and documentation that support BAS and year-end requirements


Our experience in the sector helps maintain accurate, compliant records—while giving you clearer visibility over performance and cash flow.

We provide specialised bookkeeping support for not-for-profit providers, with an understanding of reporting needs.
