Overview
Why hire dedicated bookkeepers through DirectAppoint?
Up-to-date books mean better cash-flow decisions, smoother tax seasons and confidence when talking to investors or lenders. Yet bookkeeping is often the first thing to fall behind.
DirectAppoint bookkeepers are tested on accuracy, reconciliations and software proficiency. Many hold QuickBooks ProAdvisor or Xero Advisor certifications.

What is the difference between a bookkeeper and an accountant?
A bookkeeper records and reconciles day-to-day transactions. An accountant uses those records to prepare financial statements, analyse performance and support tax and compliance work.
02
Can you catch up on months of missed bookkeeping?
Yes. Catch-up bookkeeping is a common starting point — the bookkeeper clears the backlog, then moves to a regular schedule.
03
Do bookkeepers work in our QuickBooks or Xero?
Yes. You add them as a user in your file; no data leaves your system.
