Set your accounting and payroll up for success
As we settle into the new year, it’s a good time to pause, take stock, and make sure your accounting and payroll processes are set up to support the year ahead.
While the financial year may still be in progress, the start of a new calendar year is ideal for tightening controls, setting clear goals, and removing any friction that crept in during the past year.
Start 2026 on the right foot
Here are a few practical ways to bring clarity and confidence into your accounting and payroll for the months ahead:
- Review your processes
Are payroll approvals, leave tracking, and month-end procedures still working efficiently? Small tweaks now can save hours later. - Clean up your data
Ensure employee records, cost centres, and reporting structures are accurate and up to date before workloads ramp up. - Align systems with goals
If growth, efficiency, or better reporting is on your 2026 agenda, your software and processes should actively support those goals. - Plan for compliance early
With tax year-end approaching in a few months, now is the time to identify risks and avoid last-minute pressure.
