A Xero-first accounting team that runs your books in your own Xero file — reconciled monthly, GST handled, and reporting you can read — with ownership and access that always stay yours.
Sooner or later the books need to live somewhere proper. Cloud accounting on Xero solves a lot of that: bank feeds pull transactions in automatically, reconciliation happens close to real time, and your numbers are the same whether you are looking at them from the office, from home, or from your accountant's desk.
Steadbook works primarily in Xero. We run your bookkeeping, GST and monthly reporting inside your own Xero organisation, with a clean cloud workflow and a named accountant who knows your file. We also work in a client's existing system where that is the sensible choice — the point is reliable books, not switching software for its own sake.
Xero automates the mechanics, not the discipline. These are the patterns we tidy up most often:
We diagnose the file first and tell you what we find before we change anything. Then we work through the backlog, fix the coding, reconcile each account, and re-establish a proper monthly rhythm.
The Xero organisation stays yours throughout. We work inside your file as your accountant and you keep owner-level access, so the books never sit on a system you cannot reach.
If you want the wider finance function rather than bookkeeping alone, our accounting and tax on Xero and finance operations engagements build on the same file.
We work primarily in Xero, because cloud bank feeds, reconciliation and reporting are clean and well-suited to growing Singapore companies. That said, we also work in a client's existing system where it makes sense. If you are already on another platform and it is serving you well, we will run your books there rather than push an unnecessary migration.
Yes. We migrate businesses from spreadsheets and from other accounting software to Xero. A typical migration covers your chart of accounts, opening balances, outstanding invoices and bills, bank feed setup, GST settings and a check that historical figures tie back to your last closed period. We agree a cut-over date so the move is clean and you are not running two systems at once.
Yes. The Xero organisation is yours. We work inside your file as your accountant, and you keep owner-level access throughout. If you ever change accountants or bring the work in-house, nothing has to be exported or handed back, because the books already live in your own subscription and your own login.
It can be set up either way. Many clients hold the Xero subscription in their own name so ownership and billing are unambiguous, and we are invited in as the accountant. We can also set the subscription up for you; if we do, it is created in your company's name with you as the owner, so the file belongs to you and you keep access.
Yes. A clean-up usually starts with a review of unreconciled bank lines, duplicate or miscoded transactions, the GST account treatment and the chart of accounts. We then work through the backlog, correct the coding, reconcile each bank account and re-establish a proper monthly close so the file is reliable going forward. We will tell you what we find before we start changing anything.
Xero supports Singapore GST, including coding transactions to the right tax rates and producing the figures for your GST return, which is usually filed quarterly with IRAS. Xero also supports e-invoicing on the Peppol network, which matters as the InvoiceNow GST mandate is phased in by IMDA and IRAS. We set up and check these so your file is ready rather than scrambling later.
