What's included

What's included

Not just the software. We set up the system so bank feeds, receipts, GST, payroll, reports, and year-end actually work together.

Accounting software setup

Set up or review QuickBooks or cloud accounting around your structure, GST status, accounts, and reporting needs.

Chart of accounts setup

Create or clean up categories so income, expenses, assets, liabilities, payroll, GST, and owner transactions are tracked properly.

Bank and credit card feed setup

Connect feeds, review rules, and reduce duplicate or incorrect transaction handling.

GST tracking setup

Configure GST codes, filing periods, sales tax settings, and reporting so GST numbers are easier to prepare.

Receipt and document workflow

Set up a simple system for collecting receipts, bills, invoices, and supporting documents.

Reporting setup

Build reports you can actually use: profit and loss, balance sheet, cash-flow view, sales by category, and expense trends.

Payroll integration review

If payroll applies, we review how payroll entries should flow into the books.

Training and handoff

We show you or your team how to use the system confidently, without breaking it.

The process

How Numble's cloud setup works

1

Understand the business

We review your entity type, GST status, bank accounts, revenue streams, expenses, payroll, and reporting needs.

2

Choose or review the software setup

We either set up a new file or review the existing file for issues.

3

Configure the accounting structure

Chart of accounts, GST codes, bank feeds, rules, and reporting are all set up properly.

4

Create the document workflow

We set up how receipts, bills, invoices, and statements will be captured and stored.

5

Train and transition

We walk through how to use the system and recommend next steps for bookkeeping, GST, payroll, or cleanup.

Getting started

What we need from you

You do not need every item ready to reach out. This is simply what helps us set things up.

  • Business name and structure
  • CRA business number and GST status
  • Bank and credit card account list
  • Existing QuickBooks, Xero, or Sage login, if applicable
  • Prior financial statements or tax return, if available
  • Common revenue types
  • Common expense types
  • Payroll details, if applicable
  • Receipt and document storage preferences
  • Your reporting goals
  • Any pain points with the current setup
Pricing

Setup priced to your file

A brand-new setup and a fix of an existing file are different jobs, so we quote based on what yours needs. Pricing depends on:

  • New setup versus cleanup of an existing file
  • Number of bank and credit card accounts
  • GST setup complexity
  • Payroll integration needs
  • Number of users
  • Receipt and document workflow needs
  • Reporting customization
  • Migration from spreadsheets or desktop software
  • Training needs
  • Whether monthly bookkeeping is added
No surprises

Most setups lead into monthly bookkeeping, so the file stays clean after we hand it over.

Worth knowing

Software does not fix bookkeeping by itself

A good cloud accounting setup gives your business a cleaner system, but the system still needs consistent bookkeeping, reconciliation, and review to stay accurate. We set it up right, and we can keep it current too, whichever you need.

FAQ

Setup questions, answered

Do you set up QuickBooks Online?
Yes. QuickBooks Online setup is one of the most common things we do, configured around your business, GST status, and reporting needs.
Can you fix an existing QuickBooks file?
Yes. We can review how the file is set up and recommend cleanup if the structure or history needs work.
Can you move me from spreadsheets to QuickBooks?
Yes. We help you move from spreadsheets to a cleaner cloud accounting system, set up properly from the start.
Can you connect bank feeds?
Yes. We connect and review bank and credit card feeds, and set up rules to reduce duplicate or misclassified transactions.
Can you set up GST tracking?
Yes. GST setup is one of the most important parts of a Canadian small-business accounting file, and we configure it so filing is easier.
Will you train me how to use it?
Yes. Training and handoff are part of the setup, so you or your team can use the system confidently without breaking it.
Do I still need a bookkeeper after setup?
Usually, yes. Setup creates the system; bookkeeping keeps it current. A good setup just makes that ongoing work much easier.
Can you help if I started QuickBooks myself and it is not working?
Yes, and there is no judgment. We review what you set up, sort out the structure, and get the file back on track.
