Bookkeeping records ready for year end

Your team has better uses for year-end time than chasing a receipt from April. We organise the source records and resolve routine bookkeeping discrepancies before the file reaches you. Questions needing your judgement arrive with their supporting records.

What you receive

  • →A change log. Entries corrected, the reason for each change and the supporting document.
  • →A decision list. Questions for your team in a spreadsheet, with space to record your direction.
  • →An unresolved-item list. Missing documents and balances we couldn’t resolve.
  • →A year-end package. Reconciliations and schedules, alongside the monthly exception reports supplied to the client.

We examine the period’s transactions and their supporting documents. A bank reconciliation forms part of that work; we also check account mappings and customer or supplier records.

Items needing your direction remain unresolved until you respond. After 10 business days, we carry the item forward and tell the client what’s outstanding.

Your role stays clear

We handle bookkeeping. Your firm handles tax decisions and income tax returns, together with any financial statements or assurance work you agree with the client.

We apply your written direction and document questions that need further discussion. We don’t issue legal or tax advice, certifications or assurance opinions.

Our reports are management information prepared from the client’s records for the client’s own use.

Working with your firm

  • →Access. We use a separate QuickBooks user account. We agree the required permissions before work begins.
  • →AI assistance. Tools help read records and identify items for checking. A person checks proposed entries against the documents before posting.
  • →Client relationship. The client engages us and pays us directly, and owns everything we produce.
  • →Handover. You receive the working records and the unresolved questions together.

The access and security page explains data handling. Manual processing is available by separate quote.

Try the method on a client file

We offer accountants 1 free Diagnostic on a suitable client file, with the client’s permission. You’ll receive a written report within 5 working days of the agreed start, once access and records are available.

Built to take volume

The method is written down and the machine does the reading, the matching and the proposing. A person checks every entry against the document behind it before it is posted, and that check is what we will not automate away.

That is the part built to scale: we intend to run this at a thousand files, not fifteen. Send us as many as you have. If we cannot start a file when you need it started, we will say so the same day rather than take it and be late.
