Bookkeeping Cleanup
“I need help cleaning up my books, where do I start?”
Bookkeeping cleanup often starts with a review of what is missing, what is duplicated, and what has been recorded in the wrong period. The best approach usually depends on the size of the backlog, the type of business, and whether bank, credit card, payroll, or loan accounts need to be reconciled first. It also helps to look at source documents, such as receipts, invoices, and statements, so the records can be tied back to real activity. In many cases, the main goal is to bring the books to a reliable starting point before tax filings, lender requests, or management reports are prepared. Walking the details through with a CPA is the fastest way to know what truly applies here.
