How Whirl helps your team

Before a bookkeeper can review an account, someone needs to find missing receipts, ask which invoices payments belong to and check for client replies. Repeating these checks for each client takes time.

Whirl checks your connected accounting records, files and recent messages. It requests missing documents and prepares questions about payment differences. Your team reviews the accounting treatment and any proposed changes, with the supporting documents attached to the task.

Example workflows

Tasks Whirl can handle

01

Collect missing supporting documents

A scheduled review checks the month's outstanding document requests.

Whirl checks the connected records and files, asks clients for missing items, and follows up without requesting documents already received.

The team can see which documents have arrived and which are still missing.

02

Investigate payment differences

A client emails about a payment that doesn't match an invoice.

Whirl gathers the invoice, payment details and related conversation, then summarises the difference for the bookkeeper to review.

The bookkeeper can review the invoice and payment details together.

03

Collect new client records

A team member starts a new client onboarding task.

Whirl checks the required information, prepares requests for missing records, and tracks the replies against the onboarding list.

The team can check which onboarding records have been received.
