Monthly Bookkeeping & Account Reconciliations

What Are Monthly Bookkeeping & Reconciliations?

 Monthly bookkeeping is the ongoing process of recording, reviewing, organizing, and reconciling your business transactions so your books stay accurate and up to date. 

As part of the monthly bookkeeping process, I compare the transactions recorded in your QuickBooks Online account with your actual bank and credit card statements to make sure everything matches.

Regular account reconciliation helps identify discrepancies while they are still recent and easier to investigate, keeping your books reliable throughout the year. 


Monthly bookkeeping and reconciliation may include:

  • Bank and credit card reconciliations 
  • Identifying and correcting errors and discrepancies 
  • Clearing outstanding and unreconciled transactions 
  • Reviewing transaction categorization 
  • Verifying account balances 
  • Generating reconciliation reports 
  • Keeping your books organized and up to date 


Why Is Monthly Bookkeeping Important?

Accurate books don't happen just once—they require ongoing attention.

Regular monthly bookkeeping and reconciliations help ensure that your books reflect what is actually happening in your business.  They can uncover missing transactions, duplicate entries, incorrect amounts, and other discrepancies that could affect your financial reports.

Keeping your accounts reconciled also gives you a clearer picture of your cash flow and financial position, helping you make business decisions based on reliable information.

Most importantly, you don't have to wait until tax time to discover that something doesn't add up.


Who Needs Monthly Bookkeeping?

 Monthly bookkeeping and account reconciliation are valuable for any small business that wants to maintain accurate, reliable books. 

They are especially helpful if:

  • Your business has multiple bank or credit card accounts 
  • You have a high volume of transactions 
  • You use credit cards for business expenses 
  • You want to stay prepared for tax time 
  • You rely on financial reports to make business decisions 
  • You don't have the time or desire to manage your books yourself 
  • You want to identify small errors before they become bigger problems 
  • You want consistent visibility into your business finances 


How I Help With Your Monthly Bookkeeping

I don't simply check that the final balance matches. I review the transactions behind the numbers to make sure your accounts are properly recorded, categorized, and reconciled.

Each month, I reconcile your bank and credit card accounts, investigate discrepancies, review outstanding transactions, correct errors, and make sure your records accurately reflect your business activity.

This creates a consistent bookkeeping process that keeps your books accurate, organized, and up to date.

The result is simple:

You know your numbers can be trusted.


Frequently Asked Questions:

Why do my accounts need to be reconciled every month?

Reconciling monthly allows errors and discrepancies to be identified while the transactions are still recent and easier to investigate.  It also keeps your books and reports current throughout the year. 


Do you reconcile both bank and credit card accounts?

Yes. Bank and credit card accounts can both be reconciled as part of your ongoing monthly bookkeeping services.


What happens if something doesn't match?

I investigate the discrepancy, determine what caused it, and make the appropriate correction when possible. If additional information is needed from you, I'll let you know exactly what is required.


Can you reconcile accounts that have not been reconciled for a while?

Yes. If your accounts are significantly behind, a QuickBooks Cleanup & Catch-Up may be the best place to start. Once your books are brought up to date, monthly bookkeeping and reconciliations can help keep them that way.


Will I receive a report after the reconciliation?

Yes. Reconciliation reports can be provided as part of the monthly bookkeeping process, giving you a record that your accounts have been reviewed and reconciled.


Do I need to use QuickBooks Online?

I specialize in QuickBooks Online and can work directly with your existing company file.
