What A Bookkeeper Needs Each Month

This is just one of those things: business owners and bookkeepers have to work closely together. It just is what it is.

From bank codes to your phone to large transfers coming in or out of an account, we need the information. Your bookkeeper isn't always going to know what a transaction was for just by looking at it.

Here are some key “asks” from your bookkeeper that should never be a surprise:

• receipts for large purchases

• bank, credit card and loan statements

• further detail on unusual transactions

• bank codes

• payroll and employee information

• an excel sheet of “unknown transactions” sent to you for coding

These are just a part of the relationship between bookkeeper and owner! We can see the numbers, but you know the story behind them.
