Go Paperless and Store Your Documents in the Cloud

At BookKeeping Express (BKE), we encourage our clients to reduce the amount of paper they use in their business. Not only does it help in their efforts to run an environmentally-sustainable business – it also makes it easier for them to manage back-office responsibilities and collaborate with their bookkeeper since documents are readily available in the cloud.

Simplify your back-office responsibilities

Many business owners struggle to keep track of bills, receipts, bank statements, and other important documents. They tend to pile up on a desk or get stored in a filing cabinet where they’re quickly forgotten. When the time comes to pay bills, categorize expenses, and update the books, there is a large stack of paper to organize and make sense of.

Using cloud document storage, you can upload these documents as they come in. When you sit down to take care of your back-office responsibilities, you’ll easily be able to find the documents and information you need.

Collaborate with your bookkeeper

Businesses traditionally work with a local bookkeeper. But thanks to the cloud, business owners and their bookkeeper can now collaborate online, so a local bookkeeper is no longer required.

When your important financial documents are available online, your bookkeeper can update your records in real time. They can ensure your bills are paid on time, perform bank reconciliation on a regular basis, and identify any issues early on.

Go paperless with Hubdoc

One of the keys to making any change in your business is to implement the right tools. When it comes to document storage, the financial specialists at BKE love Hubdoc – a cloud document storage service that automates data entry.

Successful business owners are switching to cloud software. Different systems hosted in the cloud are able to connect and share data, automating much of the tedious back-office responsibilities many business owners don’t have the time and patience for.

Hubdoc syncs with both QuickBooks Online and Xero, our prefered cloud accounting systems. It also connects with Bill.com, which the BKE bookkeeping team uses to manage our clients’ accounts payable. When you upload your documents to Hubdoc, it extracts data and automatically sends it to your general ledger and billing system.
