Cloud Accounting FAQs

Common Questions About Cloud & Online Accounting

What is cloud accounting?

Cloud accounting means your books live in secure online software — like QuickBooks Online or Xero — instead of a file on one computer. Accounts update from live bank feeds, you and ATS see the same numbers in real time, and you can access your financials from anywhere.

Do you offer a client login portal?

You can log in to your own QuickBooks Online or Xero account any time to see your books, and we share documents securely. A dedicated client access setup can be arranged on request — tell us how you’d like to work and we’ll set it up.

How does AI-automated receipt capture work?

You snap or forward a receipt or bill and automated tools read the key details and file them against the right transaction. It cuts manual data entry and keeps source documents attached to your books — and our CPA-led team reviews the results so accuracy holds.

Can you move me from desktop or spreadsheets to the cloud?

Yes. We migrate you from QuickBooks Desktop, spreadsheets, or another system to QuickBooks Online or Xero, clean up the data, and set up bank feeds and automation so your books are current from day one.

Is my data secure in the cloud?

Reputable cloud platforms use bank-grade encryption and continuous backups, and we handle your documents with strict confidentiality — safer than an unsynced file on a single laptop.
