Calgary's #1 AI-Powered ERPfor Energy & Beyond

Alberta has no provincial sales tax, so a Calgary business charges 5% GST and nothing else on in-province sales. The complexity arrives the moment you sell into BC (GST plus 7% PST), Ontario (13% HST) or Quebec (GST plus QST). Place-of-supply rules decide, and the GST/HST return has to reflect input tax credits claimed on purchases. Tellency applies the correct tax by destination province automatically, tracks ITCs on every purchase, and produces the GST/HST return from the ledger rather than from a spreadsheet rebuilt each quarter.

Oilfield services, industrial contractors and engineering firms across Calgary and the Foothills run on jobs: crews and equipment dispatched to a site, materials consumed, subcontractors billed, all against a customer PO or an AFE. The question is whether the job is making money while it is still open. Tellency posts labor, materials, equipment and subcontractor costs to the job and the general ledger at the same time, bills progress against the contract, and shows margin by job, customer and field area.

Energy and agricultural exporters invoice in USD, buy equipment from US vendors in USD, and report in CAD. That means USD receivables and payables carried at the right rate, realized and unrealized FX gains and losses at period end, and bank reconciliation against both CAD and USD accounts. Tellency handles multi-currency natively per customer and vendor, revalues open balances at month-end, and reconciles against statement imports from the major Canadian banks.

Alberta payroll is CPP, EI and federal and Alberta income tax with no employer health tax, but the Alberta Employment Standards Code sets its own rules on overtime, general holidays and vacation pay, and field crews add rotational schedules, living-out allowances and WCB Alberta reporting. Tellency runs payroll on the same ledger as job costing, so labor lands on the job and the P&L from one pay run, and T4s and ROEs come from data already reconciled.
