Our amazing customers
We used Donnie's services to assist us in making the transition from MYOB to Xero across our practice. He was always professional in his approach to helping us build a library of reports that have been integral in providing our clients with clear, concise and accurate financial reporting. Would recommend every time.
SPFR in Xero Systems We had identified the presentation of our final product, being the ‘general purpose financial statements’, was not prepared consistently between our teams and the time involved to manually adjust each years accounts was a sticking point for our accountants. When discussing this with our Xero account manager, she recommended we speak with Donnie from Entry Counts. Donnie’s onboarding and engagement process was seamless and his templates have saved countless hours in editing. We now present a unified product to our client which is on brand with Accru Hobart and consistent with our core values.
We started our accounting firm up in 2017 and we knew we would need experts when we set up our practice on Xero. So we engaged Donnie from Entry Counts to help us with our Xero financial statements. Donnie came in and redesigned the Xero reports from the ground up, provided the chart of accounts to match the reports and trained our team. Now our system is automated, efficient and designed for scale, so we can just get on with our jobs knowing that we have the best in class Xero report templates.
Donnie was extremely helpful and took the time to understand the issues we had on hand and put together a solution that works for us. We are happy to have Donnie assisting us and would highly recommend him to other accounting firms
Donnie's highly skilled in the reporting requirements of entities. I've engaged him for (AFSL, unlisted Public etc, GPFR overall), and is accessible and pragmatic. I highly recommend Entry Counts.
Donnie helped me so promptly with the preparation of GPFR for QBCC of one of our clients. The process was very easy and fast. I highly recommend Entry Counts GPRF in Xero services
Considering a platform for financial reporting, I identified the need for a better model from Xero. My Xero account manager (Michael Hickson) referred me to Donnie from Entry Counts. Donnie and his team designed and built a set of templates that now meet the reporting needs for our clients. The templates, complimented by training from Entry Counts, now provide substantial efficiencies through streamlined reporting templates and workflows. We can now confidently prepare and present reports accurately using the best of a Xero reporting platform available
We decided that we were spending too much time exporting data from Xero and importing it into our IFRS software. So we engaged Donnie at Entry Counts to set up IFRS systems in our Xero HQ. Donnie was really helpful and created a system within Xero that helped us produce GPFR Tier 2 for our Xero clients. Now we have reduced our workload drastically and no longer need to have our staff skilled up on separate systems.
We are a family owned suburban practice. Donnie has improved our efficiency 10-fold. We no longer edit and format client reports on a client by client basis, we simply run the report and it just works! Thanks Donnie. I thought I understood Xero reports and report codes, but I hadn’t even scratched the surface.
Entry Counts GPFR in Xero provided a really easy way for me to produce compliant SMSF reports for the auditor straight from Xero. This is an amazing tool for smaller accounting practices like mine who don't have enough SMSF clients to warrant the investment in expensive programs. Donnie Buchanan is an absolute whiz at producing customised report templates and was very helpful in getting everything set up as required by the auditor. I highly recommend this service. The reporting templates supplied by Donnie are a significant improvement on the Xero offering, and I can’t begin thank him enough for providing this service (and Xero for the referral). The Entry Counts various chart of accounts are comprehensive and seamlessly generate the well constructed and compliant general purpose financial statements. In addition, the training resources that Donnie has made available enable staff members at all levels to easily update a client’s Xero chart of accounts to ensure future transactions are posted to the correct accounts, enabling financial statements to be seamlessly prepared. Donnie and Entry Counts make me look good – while many clients don’t have an interest in their financial statements, other professionals and organisations who rely on these reports really appreciate the quality of the output generated by the Entry Counts templates.
Donnie is amazing. I have spent the last year transitioning from one software to Xero. And, I was close to giving up. Donnie came in and within a flash he had everything setup and working like it should be. Don't waste your time trying to sort it out like I was trying to do. Reach out to Donnie, you will not be disappointed. I cannot say thank you enough :)
As a growing practice transitioning to preparing annual financial statements within our clients’ Xero files, we initially spent countless hours developing in-house templates and manually reviewing report codes. Each accountant had their own approach, resulting in inconsistent and non-standardised financials across the firm. That changed when Donnie from Entry Counts came on board. Working efficiently in the background, he created a suite of templates tailored to our firm’s needs and client base. Now, preparing financial statements takes minutes instead of hours. Donnie was a pleasure to work with—professional, approachable, and clear in his communication. I highly recommend Donnie and his team to any practice looking to streamline their reporting and deliver polished, consistent financials.
We were recently referred to Donnie at Entry Counts by our Xero representative, after discussing the current Xero financial template offering. The reporting templates supplied by Donnie are a significant improvement on the Xero offering, and I can’t begin thank him enough for providing this service (and Xero for the referral). The Entry Counts various chart of accounts are comprehensive and seamlessly generate the well constructed and compliant general purpose financial statements. In addition, the training resources that Donnie has made available enable staff members at all levels to easily update a client’s Xero chart of accounts to ensure future transactions are posted to the correct accounts, enabling financial statements to be seamlessly prepared. Donnie and Entry Counts make me look good – while many clients don’t have an interest in their financial statements, other professionals and organisations who rely on these reports really appreciate the quality of the output generated by the Entry Counts templates.
We were referred to Donnie from the Clarity Street team which filled us with confidence from day dot and Donnie did not disappoint. We were an early adopter of Xero reporting and just felt our report templates had legacy issues, weren't consistent and everyone had their own way of reporting. That is where Donnie came in. He modified his standard templates to what we wanted as a firm standard and deployed them across our firm. Donnie then provided training for the whole team and was available to rectify any issues or questions that came up after the fact. Donnie was a pleasure to deal with and I received positive feedback from all my staff, it is a small investment for a great outcome in a growing team.
As a Xero accounting firm, we recognized the need for GPFR among some of our clients and embarked on finding the right solution. We were firm in our belief that sticking with Xero for our financial statement process was the most favorable route, steering clear of additional software purchases and the complexities of new processes. Donnie and the team went above and beyond, seamlessly integrating XYZ model financial account templates into our Xero HQ. This encompassed everything from charts of accounts to streamlined processes, comprehensive training sessions, and meticulous checklists. Now boasting a top-notch SPFR and GPFR system, we can effortlessly generate both for all our Xero clients with just a few clicks. It's a testament to exceptional service and an outstanding team!
We are a Xero accounting firm and we realised we needed GPFR for some of our clients, so we looked at the options. We firmly believed that keeping our financial statement process in Xero was the best outcome, as buying more software and creating more processes wasn't appealing. Donnie and the team did an amazing job of installing XYZ model financial account templates in our Xero HQ, along with charts of accounts, processes, training and checklists. Now we have the world's best SPFR and GPFR system where we can prepare both for all our Xero clients, with just a few clicks. Great service and great people!
We are a small tax compliance practice with 10 years of experience. In 2022 we engaged Donnie and his team to help us move from Reckon Elite to Xero for financial statements. His guidance and experience was invaluable in what can only be described as a stressful and confusing time. His ability to make the most difficult appear easy allayed our concerns and certainly mitigated several potential pitfalls and financial losses that may have occurred. I would highly recommend him to any practice undertaking a software migration to Xero.
I have known Donnie for a couple of years now, and he is an absolute genius. He's able to work through Xero reporting with me and is also about to put my ideas into action reporting from Xero. I have some hundreds of man hours already. Now I provide my clients the perfect reporting packages every month, all automated and compliant. I can't recommend him more. Absolute legend.
