TaxOS for Accounting Firms

Accounting firms run many small recurring engagements at once. TaxOS makes that portfolio visible: who owns which clients, what is outstanding and what is at risk this week.

Key benefits

What Changes for Your Practice

Portfolio view

See work across the client base rather than one client at a time.

Staff-wise ownership

Client portfolios assigned to staff with visible workload.

Recurring workflows

The same monthly or quarterly steps applied consistently.

Input collection at scale

Portal-based document requests across many clients in parallel.

Oversight without meetings

Overdue and at-risk items are visible to partners directly.

Firm-wide billing

Invoices raised from engaged services, with payments and receipts recorded.

The problems accounting firms describe

Volume, not complexity, is the challenge. Fifty clients each needing five documents a month is 250 small chases, and any of them can stall a close. Without a register, the firm discovers the stall at month end.

  • High-volume recurring input collection
  • Uneven workload across staff
  • Inconsistent month-end process
  • Late billing on recurring engagements

Capabilities that scale with volume

Service-driven document requirements, workflow templates for repeating engagements, task boards per staff member, a compliance register with risk states, internal chat for escalation, and billing that follows the engaged services.

Example: a monthly portfolio close

Each staff member opens their assigned clients, sees outstanding inputs, and escalates only the clients that have not responded. Workflow steps carry each engagement from inputs received through review to completion, and invoices are raised at the end of the cycle from the same service list.

Scope

TaxOS is practice-management software: it tracks and reminds, and does not file returns with any government portal. Firms keep their existing accounting and filing tools; TaxOS runs the practice operations layer above them.

FAQ

Questions Firms Ask Before Switching

Can we assign clients to specific staff?

Yes. Clients, tasks and workflow steps carry named owners, so portfolios and workload are explicit.

Does TaxOS keep the books?

No. It manages your firm's practice operations; your accounting software keeps client books.

Does it file returns?

TaxOS is practice-management software: it tracks and reminds, and does not file returns with any government portal.
