Bookkeeping and Data Entry

Bookkeeping involves the process of recording, analysing and interpreting the financial transactions of a business or individual. The discipline of bookkeeping accounts for a large proportion of the accounting process. A bookkeeper’s duty is to set up financial statements so that an accountant can easily perform legal and tax management in a timely manner. A skilled and compliant bookkeeper should be able to produce financial records that give business accurate information about its financial activities. These records are critical to the future success of any business. Not only are these records necessary for the business, they are also required by law. Australian legislation states that businesses must have up to date financial records to ensure that they pay all necessary taxes and levies. Records must be kept that are accurate and true for a period of at least 5 years from the date that the documents were prepared, obtained or the transaction completed, whichever occurs the latest. Some records, such as payroll, must be kept for a minimum of 7 years.

Data entry is the act of entering information into electronic formats by using word processing or data processing software hosted on a computer and its data entry operators who perform these tasks. In truth, though “data entry” sounds technical, you can get many of these jobs with no previous experience.

Payroll Function and Support

Payroll tax is a self-assessed, general purpose state and territory tax assessed on wages paid or payable by an employer to its employees, when the total wage bill of an employer (or group of employers) exceeds a threshold amount. The Payroll function is one of the fundamental functions of any organisation. At the basic level, it ensures that all employees receive their wages. In practice, the payroll function extends to a fairly wide range of administrative and labour issues.
