Covid 19 has highlighted how important cashflow is for dealerships. Bookkeeping is crucial for all areas of your dealership; however, both dealers and accountants are still facing many issues when doing the books.

Integrated accounting with your DMS (dealer management system) removes issues facing both dealers and accountants - providing increased efficiency and a reduction in costs.

What is integrated accounting?

Integrated accounting is the combining of your accounting system to your DMS. Having your accounting combined with your dealership management system allows you to only have to enter all information once, eliminating both costly data entry time and errors.

Why is integrated accounting beneficial for dealers?

Dealers are constantly faced with different challenges; bookkeeping should be simplistic and give you the peace of mind knowing your accounting is accurate, and correct at all times.

Reduce administration time:

Integrated accounting slashes both your accounting time and administration time. All financial and operational information will be located in one centralised location. This eliminates the need to use several programs. Operating multiple accounting systems while bookkeeping significantly increases your accountants time which, for dealers would increase accountant fees.

Eliminate errors:

Having your DMS system integrated with either MYOB or Xero eliminates errors and increases efficiency. All financial information from your dealership is automatically synced upon entry, avoiding potential costly double bookkeeping.

Simplified Notional Input Tax Credit:

Integrated accounting through your DMS gives you the ability to automate notional input credits recording and calculations for all vehicles. GST is crucial for all dealers and failing to provide the correct details will lead to heavy repercussions from the Australian Government.

Slash accounting costs:

Integrating either Xero or MYOB to your DMS system will ultimately lower your accounting expenses creating higher profit margins for your dealership. Having an integrated accounting will slash the time your accountant requires in order to complete the bookkeeping.
