Some of those are the following:
Lack of local expertise
Not all bookkeepers are well-versed in Nova Scotia-specific laws and HST regulations. Such issues can cause unwanted surprises in future.
Inefficient systems
Many bookkeepers are hesitant to change their interface and feel more comfortable using outdated systems. It not only causes errors in bookkeeping entries, but the risk of audit always remains present.
