Cleanup & Catch-Up

Need to get your books current before monthly bookkeeping begins?

If your QuickBooks Online file is behind, incomplete, or needs correction, we can review the existing activity, bring the accounts current, and create a clean starting point for ongoing bookkeeping.

Ideal for:

  • Books that are several months or more behind

  • Transactions that were categorized incorrectly or incompletely

  • Bank or credit card accounts that were never reconciled or need correction

  • Businesses preparing to transition into ongoing monthly bookkeeping

The process may include:

  • Reviewing the existing QuickBooks Online file and historical activity

  • Categorizing and correcting prior transactions

  • Reconciling accounts through the agreed catch-up period

  • Making routine bookkeeping adjustments and identifying items that need CPA guidance

  • Providing updated Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet reports

Cleanup & Catch-Up is scoped and priced separately based on the condition and amount of historical work required.

Optional Add-On Services

Need something beyond your monthly bookkeeping?

Certain services can be added when they make sense for your business and are scoped and priced separately.

  • 1099 preparation and filing support

  • Receipt capture and document workflow setup

  • Custom reporting or KPI dashboards

  • Additional tracking or reporting needs

  • Other bookkeeping support outside your regular monthly scope

Availability and pricing depend on the scope and complexity of the requested work.
