Retail

Clear numbers for growing retail businesses.

Retail businesses face a unique set of accounting challenges: managing inventory, understanding which products make money, handling seasonal cash flow swings, and keeping on top of GST across multiple sales channels. Account For It helps Perth retailers get a clear picture of their business financials so they can make better buying decisions, reduce waste, and grow with confidence. Whether you are a bricks-and-mortar store, an online shop, or both, we have the Xero expertise to keep your numbers clean.

Inventory and Cost of Goods

We help you track stock levels and cost of goods sold in Xero so you always know your true margins and can identify your most and least profitable product lines.

Multi-Channel Sales Reconciliation

Selling in-store and online? We reconcile your sales data from Shopify, WooCommerce, or other platforms with your bank account so everything ties together accurately.

Seasonal Cash Flow Planning

Retail cash flow is rarely steady. We build a rolling forecast so you know when to order stock, when cash will be tight, and when you can afford to invest in growth.

BAS, GST, and Payroll

We handle your quarterly BAS, GST reconciliation, and payroll obligations so you stay compliant without taking your focus away from the shop floor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I track inventory properly in Xero?

Xero has built-in inventory tracking that works well for businesses with a manageable number of SKUs. For larger or more complex inventories, we often recommend a dedicated add-on like DEAR Inventory or Cin7 that integrates with Xero. We assess your situation and set up the right solution.
