core bookkeeping services

At South Coast BAS & Bookkeeping, we provide careful, compliance-focused bookkeeping support for small businesses across Victor Harbor, the Fleurieu Peninsula and the wider South Coast of SA.

Our approach is practical, thorough and tailored to the way you work — with a strong focus on accuracy, workflow integrity and numbers that genuinely reflect what’s happening in your business.
 

Accurate, on-time BAS and IAS lodgements prepared by a registered BAS Agent. We review activity statements against the current bookkeeping records to ensure reporting is correct and compliant — helping you avoid penalties, interest and unnecessary ATO risk.

We ensure your bank accounts and clearing accounts are properly reconciled so your financial reports are accurate and reliable. This includes reviewing transactions, identifying anomalies or gaps, and making sure nothing has been misclassified or overlooked.

Reliable, compliance-focused payroll processing, including Single Touch Payroll (STP) reporting, leave and super calculations, onboarding and year-end finalisation. Our priority is ensuring employees are paid correctly and your payroll obligations are met with confidence.

We track superannuation obligations and due dates, manage clearing house lodgements where required, and support late or catch-up super payments. Our focus is helping you stay compliant and reducing the risk of superannuation exposure or follow-up action.

We support structured and organised workflows for managing bills and invoices — including due-date tracking, payment scheduling, receipting and overdue follow-ups where needed. Whether you prefer hands-on support or system optimisation, we’ll help ensure your processes are clear, consistent and efficient.

We assist with WorkCover wage data reconciliation, including wage estimates, premium tracking and comparing projected versus actual wages — supporting accurate submissions and reducing end-of-year surprises.

We help set up or restructure your accounting software so it is configured correctly from the start. This includes chart of accounts design, payroll configuration, bank feeds and system settings — tailored to your business structure and workflows. We specialise in Xero setup and optimisation.

We support the connection of add-ons and business tools such as POS, time tracking and payment platforms — ensuring integrations are configured correctly and data flows cleanly between systems.

We provide practical guidance across GST, PAYG, payroll and record-keeping obligations, including reporting timelines and liaising with the ATO where required — so you have clarity and confidence in your compliance position.

All services are delivered by a qualified, registered BAS Agent based in Victor Harbor, with experience supporting small businesses across the South Coast and regional South Australia.
