5 Signs You Need a Xero Rescue Before BAS Is Due
5 Signs You Need a Xero Rescue (Before BAS Becomes a Nightmare)
Behind on BAS? Dodging the ATO? Getting more and more confused every time you open Xero?
Here are 5 signs you don’t need more hours in the day - you need a Rescue.
1. Your BAS is overdue - and you’ve stopped checking the due dates
Late BAS lodgements can lead to penalties and interest from the ATO. If you're constantly pushing deadlines or filing late, it's not just a time problem. It's a systems problem - and it needs fixing fast.
2. Your bank balance and your reports don’t match
Your Xero file might look like it's up to date - but if your reconciliations aren’t accurate, your reports aren't either. That means you’re guessing when it comes to BAS, tax, and business decisions.
3. You’re not sure what GST is being claimed (or if it’s right)
Incorrect GST codes = incorrect BAS. If you’re not confident your GST is coded correctly - or worse, you’ve copied what a friend does - that’s a red flag. A Rescue includes a full GST code review and correction.
4. Your payroll or STP isn’t set up properly
Payroll errors are more than admin problems - they’re compliance issues. If your payroll setup is incomplete or STP hasn’t been filed correctly, a Rescue will get your employee obligations sorted.
5. You’ve had multiple bookkeepers and still don’t trust your numbers
If you’ve bounced between support people, done parts yourself, or patched things along the way - your file likely has inconsistencies and errors you haven’t even seen yet. A Rescue gets under the hood and fixes it properly.
🧠 The takeaway?
If you’re dealing with any of the above, this isn’t just about feeling “behind.” It’s about business risk, poor data, and real compliance issues.
You don’t need to clean it up yourself.
You just need the right expert to fix it properly - fast.
