TaxCalc + Recruitment Agencies: Faster Bank Import
Recruitment agencies process candidate placements, client invoices, temporary worker payments, and margin calculations — requiring meticulous bank reconciliation. If you use TaxCalc for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Recruitment Agencies Using TaxCalc
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into TaxCalc. Convert your agency bank statements to Excel to reconcile placement fees, match temporary worker payments, and track client account balances.
The Recruitment Agencies + TaxCalc Workflow
Recruitment agencies invoice clients for permanent placement fees or weekly/monthly temporary worker charges, pay temporary workers via payroll or umbrella companies, and reconcile margins on each placement. Bank statements must be matched against CRM placement records to verify fees received, track debtor balances, and ensure temporary worker payments are processed correctly.
Key terms you'll encounter: placement fee, temp margin, rebate period, umbrella company.
