What it does

Everything your fixed-asset accounting needs.

From the first purchase to the final disposal β€” tracked, depreciated, reconciled and reported.

Asset tracking

Every truck, trailer, building, machine and computer in one register β€” with VIN decode, plates, insurance and preventive-maintenance reminders.

Review reports

Tax, financial, operational and audit reports β€” every number drillable down to the underlying asset, with customizable columns.

Tax vs Book

Run CCA (tax) and your financial-reporting depreciation (ASPE / IFRS / GAAP) side by side, with timing differences and deferred tax.

Audit-ready

Full audit trail, signed-off rate overrides, and clean UCC pool balances β€” hand the auditor a tidy file and move on.

Disposals & buyouts

Sell, trade in, or buy out a lease β€” proceeds vs UCC give you recapture or terminal loss, booked the moment the asset leaves.

Integrations

QuickBooks, Xero, Sage, Samsara, Geotab, DocuSign β€” plus ANY bank or credit card with a transactions API (Open Banking / Visa / Mastercard / Amex). Concierge-provisioned so your data just flows.

Tax vs Standards

Two sets of books, reconciled automatically.

The CRA wants CCA. Your financial statements want ASPE / IFRS / GAAP. Steer the Books keeps both schedules for every asset and shows you the timing difference and deferred-tax impact β€” no parallel spreadsheets, no reconciliation headaches.
