Establish where the records stand
Tell us the last period you believe is complete and what has happened since. We review the available bookkeeping, accounts and supporting information to understand the gap. If you’re unsure which months are done, say so on the review.
Separate overdue work from cleanup
Catch-up work brings unrecorded periods into the books. Cleanup addresses issues in existing records, such as unexplained balances or transactions that need review. Your project may involve both. We explain the proposed work before agreeing the scope.
Set up a useful handoff
Once the agreed work is complete, you should understand which periods were covered and any outstanding questions. We discuss the next step, whether that is sharing records with your tax preparer or moving into a monthly bookkeeping routine.
