Accounts Receivable Management in Canada
We shorten your cash-collection cycle and keep DSO under control. Delivered to ASPE / IFRS for Canadian businesses, priced in CAD.
Canadian AR carries the GST/HST rate of the customer's province rather than yours, so place-of-supply rules decide what you invoice. Getting it wrong understates a liability due one month after the reporting period whether or not the invoice was paid. We invoice with the correct provincial treatment, collect on schedule, and report DSO against the filing calendar.
We issue invoices, run structured collections, apply payments, and report on aging — so revenue actually lands in your bank account instead of sitting in receivables.
The deadlines we track against your ledger.

Provincial sales tax layers on top of federal GST differently in each province, so the chart of accounts has to separate GST, HST, PST and QST from the start.

Figures in CAD. Firms operating across provinces usually need separate tax codes per province rather than one blended rate.

We prepare to ASPE or IFRS, as issued by the AcSB. These are the bodies that set that framework and the authorities you file with — linked so you can verify the standard rather than take our word for it.
