Why outsourcing accounting makes sense
01
Advantages of outsourcing accounting
Outsourcing accounting offers numerous advantages for companies. One of the biggest advantages is the time saved. By outsourcing your accounting tasks to external experts, you and your employees can focus on your company’s core competencies. In addition, outsourcing provides access to specialized expertise that may not be available in-house. External accounting service providers have the know-how and experience to handle complex accounting tasks efficiently and correctly.
02
Cost savings through outsourcing
A key advantage of external accounting is the cost savings. By outsourcing bookkeeping, companies can reduce expenditure on staff, training, and accounting software. External service providers often work for fixed fees, which simplifies cost planning and avoids unexpected expenses. In addition, the costs for absences and vacation replacements are eliminated as the service provider is continuously available.
03
Error and risk minimization
Outsourcing bookkeeping can also help to minimize errors and risks. Professional accounting service providers have proven processes and systems in place to ensure accounting accuracy and reliability. By complying with legal regulations and regularly updating accounting standards, companies can ensure that their financial data is always accurate and compliant. This reduces the risk of errors that could lead to financial losses or legal issues.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
1. How does Finclair support outsourcing your accounting?
Finclair supports you in designing your accounting processes organizationally and technically. This includes analyzing workflows, defining clear responsibilities and handovers, and setting up suitable systems and interfaces. In addition, we work with a tax advisory firm, so tax returns, advance VAT returns and annual financial statements can also be covered by our partner firm.
2. Which tasks can be considered for outsourcing?
Depending on your needs, receipt processing, day-to-day bookkeeping, management of open items and preparatory reconciliation work can be outsourced, for example. Through our cooperation with a tax advisory firm, the preparation of tax returns, advance VAT returns and annual financial statements as well as tax advice can also be covered. These services are provided by our partner firm. Together, we agree on the scope of services and responsibilities.
3. What benefits can outsourcing your accounting offer?
Well-organized outsourcing can take pressure off your internal team, give you access to additional expertise and make it easier to cover absences. Clear responsibilities, digital handovers and coordinated controls support reliable processes. Whether costs can also be reduced depends on the volume of tasks, your previous process and the agreed scope of services.
4. How does the transition to outsourced accounting work?
First, we analyze your existing workflows and define the tasks to be outsourced. We then align responsibilities, access rights, data handovers and quality controls. A handover plan and joint tests prepare the start. During the ramp-up phase, the workflows are reviewed regularly and adjusted where needed.
5. How much does support for outsourcing your accounting cost?
The costs for Finclair’s support depend on the analysis required, the necessary process and system adjustments and the scope of handover support. The ongoing services of the external accounting provider are agreed separately. In a free, no-obligation initial consultation, we clarify your starting point and discuss the next steps.
6. Can I connect Business Central with DATEV and work with my tax advisor?
Yes. Using a suitable DATEV interface, posting data from Business Central can be provided to your tax advisory firm and imported into DATEV there. Depending on the solution used, master data and receipt images can also be transferred.
You keep your day-to-day accounting in Business Central. Your tax advisory firm imports the agreed data into DATEV and uses it, for example, for tax evaluations, tax returns and the annual financial statements. Alternatively, the firm can work directly in Business Central with the appropriate access rights.
Finclair sets up the interface and aligns account mappings, tax codes, transfer intervals and responsibilities with you and your firm. We also define how closing and correcting entries are transferred to Business Central so that both systems stay in sync.
