Payroll year-end review
8 clients, 6 source reports per client, every variance traced and zero unresolved variance.
DNCC builds custom workflows for accounting and bookkeeping firms using Xero, QuickBooks Online and Excel. We automate repeated work, preserve review and approval, and produce the exact output your team needs.
The repetitive work inside your practice should not need a person to rebuild it from scratch every month.
Cross-checks, controlled inputs, source-to-output reconciliation and exception review aim for highly accurate, traceable work.
Once the workflow is built, reports, reconciliations, workpapers and dashboards can be produced in a fraction of the manual time.
Add capacity without automatically adding headcount every time client volume or transaction volume grows.
Real accounting problems, real client data and measurable results.
8 clients, 6 source reports per client, every variance traced and zero unresolved variance.
146 downloads and 307 isolated entries identified about AUD 36,000 of potentially duplicated revenue and a separate AUD 1,099 fee error.
2 entities, 338 automated sends, zero errors and an 87% reduction in one archiving step.
Hotel disbursements reconciled across 12 months with zero unexplained variance and a formula-traced workbook.
89 documents retrieved with client search, duplicate prevention, exception reporting and run logging.
Misapplied bank rules and affected transactions were identified, traced and prepared for correction in QuickBooks Online.
Figures represent separate completed or production-tested workflows. Manual-time savings vary by client complexity, data quality and review requirements.
Every workflow starts with a repeated accounting problem and ends with a reviewable output your team can use.
Read supplier PDFs, extract line items, apply account and tax rules, and produce a Xero- or QBO-ready draft for review.
Sort, rename, classify and process invoice batches without manually opening every file.
Move documents between systems with manifests, duplicate controls, confirmation logs and resumable processing.
Match transactions, apply client-specific rules, surface exceptions and prepare review-ready batches.
Bring external authority records and accounting-system balances into one structured variance workpaper.
Routine items are handled consistently. Anything missing, unusual or uncertain is held for human review instead of being guessed.
Search client portals, detect new documents, prevent duplicate downloads, file outputs and create a run log.
Turn spreadsheet dates and client registers into reminders, calendar items and visible exception lists.
Automate intake, file naming, tracker updates, status checks, assignment support and missing-item follow-up.
Cash Flow is financial modeling. DNCC can take the Excel workbook your firm already uses, reproduce the exact output, and tailor the model for each client.
We map the source reports, formulas, layout and checks so the completed workbook matches the structure your team already knows.
Revenue drivers, payment timing, payroll, tax, debt, equipment and forecasting assumptions can vary by client.
Cash position, runway, margins, wages, tax liabilities, working capital, trends and other selected metrics.
Compare actuals with budget, forecast, prior period or benchmark and isolate the accounts driving the movement.
Test hiring, equipment purchases, pricing changes, finance repayments and revenue-uplift cases using client-specific inputs.
Turn accounting data into a business summary, forecast, dashboard and decision-focused advisory pack.
The screens and report names differ. The accounting objective is the same: collect the source, process routine items, surface exceptions and prepare a reviewed output.

No unexplained numbers. Nothing posts, sends or lodges without the agreed review step.
We start with the PDFs, exports, portals and templates your team really uses—not a generic description of the process.
Confirm clients, volumes, staff time, rules, source reports, expected output and common exceptions.
Use the client chart of accounts, tax treatment, sign conventions, mapping rules and review thresholds.
Compare extracted or calculated results with source totals. Failed checks are flagged rather than passed through.
Uncertain, unusual or missing items go to a focused exception list for professional review.
Xero import, QBO import, Excel model, dashboard, workpaper or review pack—ready for the next step.
Accounting firms with repeated, high-volume work that does not scale well by adding more manual steps.
Firms using Xero, ATO systems and document platforms across a multi-client base.
Firms using QuickBooks Online with recurring categorization, reconciliation and reporting work.
Practices managing 10+ clients where the same process runs every week, month, quarter or year.
Start with one recurring workflow. DNCC will map the current process, confirm the opportunity and propose a controlled first build for Xero, QuickBooks Online or Excel.
