Your finance team has better things to do than repeat the same accounting tasks every week. Sterling works with Xero and the other tools your team already uses to take on that work, following your processes and bringing people in only when their judgement is needed.

What Sterling can do with Xero

• Handle messy accounts payable. Pick up supplier invoices from your inbox, work out which entity each bill belongs to and code it based on how you've handled that supplier before.

• Reconcile complex payments. Match a single payment processor payout against hundreds or thousands of invoices, account for fees and reconcile the result in Xero.

• Run your recurring billing. Pull information from your CRM or billing systems, create and send customer invoices on schedule and handle intercompany charges.

• Take on month-end reconciliations. Reconcile balances across your accounting, payroll and inventory systems, identify discrepancies and prepare the journals needed to close.

• Follow your own accounting rules. Allocate costs between departments or entities, complete unusual checks and work with the spreadsheets and processes your team already relies on.
