Every backlog situation is different, so I offer a personalised, careful and organised approach. At Better Bookkeeping For Your Business, I make sure the entire process is smooth, stress-free and fully tailored to your needs.
1. Reviewing Your Current Position
I begin by understanding how far behind your books are, which software you’re using and what information may be missing. Whether it’s Xero, QuickBooks or MYOB, I identify exactly what needs to be fixed, updated or reconciled.
2. Collecting Missing Documents
Backlog work often involves missing receipts, unpaid supplier invoices or unreconciled bank transactions. I guide you through gathering everything in the simplest way possible, so you don’t feel overwhelmed.
3. Rebuilding and Correcting Your Accounts
Once I have the information, I get to work reconstructing your financial data accurately. This includes general ledger clean-ups, correcting GST codes, reconciling bank and credit card accounts, updating payroll, processing overdue invoices and ensuring every transaction is accounted for properly.
4. Preparing Clear Financial Reports
When your Backlog Bookkeeping Moorabbin clean-up is complete, I prepare clear reports that show exactly where your business stands. These updated figures give you confidence heading into future decisions, BAS lodgements or end-of-year tax preparation.
5. Supporting Your Ongoing Bookkeeping
To make sure you don’t fall behind again, I also offer flexible ongoing bookkeeping options. I help set up the right systems, automations and routines to keep your books always up-to-date.
