Any statement, proved to the cent
Bank and credit card statements read straight from a PDF, a scan or a CSV — then balanced against the statement total, so nothing is quietly dropped or doubled.
Regina, Saskatchewan
Accounting software in Regina
Books for Regina's provincial government, steel manufacturing and insurance and finance — each client in a company of its own, on its own chart of accounts. Bank and card statements read and proved, 5% GST and 6% PST, and year-end working papers — online or on Windows.
Books in Regina
What a set of Regina books has in it
Regina has about 230,000 people and an economy weighted towards provincial government and steel manufacturing. For a practice here that usually means a dozen or more client companies in a handful of recognisable shapes — which is the case BooksAuto is organised around: one company per client, each on its own chart of accounts, all from one login.
The local detail that shows up in the ledger: as the capital it has a large salaried public-sector base, with heavy manufacturing on shifts beside it — and the books have to reflect it rather than flatten it.
Month end starts with the statements, and BooksAuto reads a bank or credit card statement from a PDF, a scan or a CSV and proves it against the statement total before anything is posted. A dropped page or a doubled transaction is caught then, not at year-end. Transactions are coded to the chart of accounts and learn from the corrections you make.

The part of these books that catches people out
Manufacturing books live on inventory and work in progress, and the sales-tax question is usually where the shipment went: the place-of-supply rules decide which province's tax applies, so an out-of-province sale is a coding decision before it is a tax calculation.
General Canadian sales-tax treatment, not advice on your own return — and municipal charges vary, so confirm what applies to your business before you file.
Set by the province, not the city
Sales tax behind a Regina ledger
A Regina business charges 5% GST and 6% PST — a provincial rule, so the same in every Saskatchewan town. How the accounts are set up for it, and why the GST and the PST sit on separate ones, is on the Saskatchewan accounting page.
Payroll is in the same program, so a Regina client's wages, source deductions and employer cost post themselves into these books on the accounts you chose — nothing re-keyed from a payroll summary.
Accounting features
What you need to keep a set of books in Regina
Categorized as it comes in
Transactions are coded to the chart of accounts and learn from the corrections you make, so the second month takes a fraction of the first.
GST, HST, PST and QST
The sales tax return comes out of the ledger rather than a spreadsheet, with the working behind every figure and the input tax credits separated out.
Customers, vendors and invoices
Invoices and bills with what is owed and owing, aged, and the payments matched against them.
Reconciliation you can show
Bank reconciliations with the outstanding items listed, so a reviewer can see why the books and the statement differ.
Working papers A–N
The year-end file an accountant actually hands over: lead sheets, the trial balance, the adjusting entries and the support behind each one.
Payroll posts itself into these books, so wages, source deductions and the employer cost land on the right accounts without a journal entry.
Pricing

Questions
Accounting questions from Regina
What is different about provincial government books in Regina?
Manufacturing books live on inventory and work in progress, and the sales-tax question is usually where the shipment went: the place-of-supply rules decide which province's tax applies, so an out-of-province sale is a coding decision before it is a tax calculation.
What sales tax applies to a Regina business?
A business in Regina charges 5% GST and 6% PST, the same as the rest of Saskatchewan. Sales tax is set by the province, not the city — though a municipality may levy its own charge on things like accommodation, which is reported separately from the sales tax.
Can you read my bank statements?
Yes — as a PDF, a scan or a CSV. Each statement is proved against its own closing total before anything is posted, so a missing page or a doubled transaction is caught at the start of the month rather than at year-end.
How much does accounting software cost in Regina?
The same everywhere in Canada: $10 per company per month, with a 30-day free trial and no per-transaction charge.
Do I need an accountant to use it?
No, though many Regina businesses share the file with theirs. The year-end working papers are the ones an accountant expects, so handing the file over does not mean rebuilding it.
