Software for accounting and bookkeeping practices

Every figure traces back to its source.

Built for practices whose clients' books start with the bank statement. Each figure in the BAS and P&L drafts leads back to its bank lines and the rule or person that coded them, or to a manual entry and who made it. A registered tax or BAS agent reviews the drafts and signs off the BAS.

Who Taxa is for

Accounting and bookkeeping practices

Software your team uses for client books and BAS drafts.

Clients in the trades

Clients such as electricians, plumbers and builders, and other small businesses whose records come mostly from the bank statement.

GST on a cash basis

Clients who account for GST on a cash basis and report quarterly, with each line placed in its quarter by bank date.

Features

Drafts you can check at every step

Taxa does the drafting. Your team confirms every code and reviews the figures, and a registered tax or BAS agent signs off the BAS once the required checks pass.

Bank CSV import

Upload a client's bank CSV export. Taxa picks the bank template from the header, validates every row in a preview before saving, and holds suspected duplicates for review.

AI-assisted classification, reusable rules

Each client's rules, hand-written or learned from confirmed lines, carry over from quarter to quarter. AI suggests codes for unmatched merchants only when the accountant runs it.

Efficient transaction review workbench

Every transaction in one table, with its source and state. Confirm or re-code line by line, or confirm eligible suggestions in bulk, for example by merchant. Each line still gets its own entry in the audit trail, and no suggestion counts toward any draft figure until a person confirms it.

Quarterly BAS draft

Taxa drafts the quarter's BAS workpaper from confirmed transactions only, with GST on a cash basis. Each derived box links back to the transactions behind it.

Mandatory checks before sign-off

BAS sign-off stays blocked, with the reason shown, until required boxes are complete and the figures are up to date. What is signed is exactly what is on screen.

Annual P&L draft, evidence on manual lines

The year's quarterly BAS figures roll up into a draft P&L, and each quarter's figures open to that quarter's BAS workpaper. Manual adjustment lines need a reason and can carry evidence files.

Complete audit trail

Every change records who made it, when, what changed and, where a reason is required, why. Each suggestion keeps a snapshot of the rule that produced it.

Several accountants, per-client access

Several accountants can work in one practice. Clients are assigned to people, staff see the clients assigned to them, and every assignment change is recorded.

English and Chinese interface

Every screen is available in English and Chinese, with a switch in the corner. Exported files are in English only.

Workflow

Five steps, each one on the record

The same order every quarter, from the bank's CSV to a BAS draft that a registered tax or BAS agent reviews and signs off. The annual P&L draft is built from the quarters.

  1. 01

    Import

    Upload the client's bank CSV and check the row-by-row preview before anything is saved.

  2. 02

    Classify

    The client's own rules suggest codes first; AI suggests codes for unmatched merchants only when the accountant runs it.

  3. 03

    Review

    Only confirmed lines count. A person confirms or re-codes each suggestion, and eligible confirmations become reusable rules for that client.

  4. 04

    BAS / P&L drafts

    Taxa drafts the quarter's BAS from confirmed lines and rolls the quarters into an annual P&L draft.

  5. 05

    BAS sign-off

    Once the required checks pass, a registered tax or BAS agent reviews and signs off the BAS. The P&L stays a draft, and lodgment happens outside Taxa.

Three principles

Peace of mind

The same steps every quarter, with each client's lines, rules, drafts and history in one place.

Every figure traceable

Each figure leads back to its bank lines and the rule or person that coded them, or to a manual entry.

Drafts, for the registered agent

Everything Taxa produces is a draft for a registered tax or BAS agent, who signs off the BAS.
