Accounting software for taxi operators in Pully: rules, deadlines, best practice
Accounting software for taxi operators in Pully rests on three pillars: federal law that applies across Switzerland, cantonal deadlines worth knowing, and tools that eliminate re-keying. This guide puts it all in order, fact by fact.
Digitalising accounting software: what actually works
Access for the fiduciary, the auditor and employees is set by roles: view, enter, approve, close. Well-set rights protect the data and speed up collaboration.
For an owner in Pully, a dashboard only has value if the data is fresh: automating data entry means, first of all, buying up-to-date information about your own business.
QR-bills and friction-free collections
The QR-bill is generated from the accounts, not the other way round: the document is born with its reference, amount and due date already linked to the receivable entry — a clear win for SMEs in Pully.
Reference discipline remains: an invoice issued without a structured reference — or paid by a client who truncates it — becomes a manual case again. Coaching recurring clients and keeping your own outgoing payments clean keeps the automation rate at the top.
The Swiss legal frame for accounting software
For an owner in Pully, the question is never “do we need accounts?” but “at what level of detail?”. The CO sets the floor; the bank, the tax office and the shareholders set the rest.
One simple principle drives accounting software: every franc in or out must be explainable by a document, an entry and an account. All of Swiss accounting law fits inside that traceability requirement.
A well-structured SME chart of accounts
Nearly all Swiss SMEs rely on the standard SME chart of accounts (Sterchi/Käfer): classes 1 (assets) to 9 (closing), with revenue in class 3 and expenses in classes 4 to 6. Using this standard structure makes conversations with your fiduciary, auditor and tax administration far easier.
For a business in Pully, the Sterchi/Käfer structure also eases benchmarking: banks and fiduciaries reason on those standard classes to situate an SME's accounting software.
Pully: what changes, what does not
Working with a fiduciary from Pully no longer depends on geography: the documents of a business in Pully are shared online, while the canton Vaud keeps its own deadlines for the tax return.
Federal deadlines do not move in Pully: VAT within 60 days, salary declaration in January, 10-year record retention — postal code 1009 changes nothing about those rules, only the sender's address.
Frequently asked questions
How long must records related to accounting software be kept?
Ten years from the end of the financial year concerned (art. 958f CO). Electronic retention is permitted if the integrity and readability of the records are guaranteed — a serious digital archive validly replaces paper binders. A business in Pully can therefore archive fully digitally.
Does MyFiducia.ai work for a business based in Pully?
Yes: the platform runs online, the rules applied are federal (VAT, CO, AHV), and the file can be shared with any fiduciary. A business in Pully manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
How much does accounting software cost in Pully?
It depends on document volume, the number of salaries and VAT complexity — no serious figure can be quoted without examining the file. Two levers cut the bill everywhere: digitised, well-filed receipts and software that prepares entries instead of having them re-keyed.
What are the current Swiss VAT rates?
Since 1 January 2024: 8.1% (standard), 2.6% (reduced — for example food and medicines) and 3.8% (accommodation). Returns must be filed and paid within 60 days after the period ends (quarterly under the effective method, semi-annually under the net tax rate method). These federal rates apply unchanged in Pully.
