QuickBooks cleanup for small businesses

Your QuickBooks is up to date, but you don't trust what it says. The profit and loss doesn't match how the year felt, the balance in QuickBooks isn't the one at the bank, and nobody can tell you why. A cleanup fixes the file itself, so your reports mean something again.

From Landon

“I want you to feel like you don't even have to worry about the bookkeeping, the back end of your business.”

What we fix in a QuickBooks file

Miscategorized transactions

Fuel booked as materials, a truck loan payment booked as an expense, personal purchases sitting in business accounts. We move each one to where it belongs.

Duplicates

Transactions entered by hand and then imported again from the bank feed, or the same bank feed match accepted twice. We find the extras and remove them.

Accounts that were never reconciled

We reconcile every bank and credit card account against your statements, month by month, until the QuickBooks balance matches the bank.

Customer payments recorded as new income

Payments entered as a deposit instead of applied to the invoice count the same sale twice and leave the invoice showing as unpaid.

Money stuck in Undeposited Funds

Payments received in QuickBooks but never matched to a bank deposit, sitting there for months.

A chart of accounts nobody can read

Overlapping accounts like "Supplies", "Materials" and "Job Supplies", and accounts nobody remembers creating.

A chart of accounts for your business

Every cleanup client moves onto a standard chart of accounts for their type of business. Trade businesses get one built around jobs, materials and crews.

How a QuickBooks cleanup works

  1. 01

    Get your price, then book a call.

    Get your price in 2 minutes, then book a quick 30-minute call to get set up.

  2. 02

    Give us accountant access.

    After your call, we review your QuickBooks file and send the cleanup invoice for you to approve before we start.

  3. 03

    Send your statements.

    Bank and credit card statements for the months being cleaned up, so we can reconcile against them. We never ask for your bank login.

  4. 04

    We fix the file.

    Recategorize, remove duplicates, reconcile every account, and move you onto a chart of accounts for your type of business. Anything we can't tell from the records comes back to you as a question.

  5. 05

    The monthly plan keeps it clean.

    You get a profit and loss statement and balance sheet you can trust, and after that each month's books are closed within the first ten business days of the next month.

Like catch-up, cleanup is $199 for each month on Starter, $349 on Growth and $599 on Established. Custom is priced on the call. After your call, we review your QuickBooks file and send the cleanup invoice for you to approve before we start.

A catch-up is for months that were never entered. A cleanup is for months that are in QuickBooks but wrong. If your file needs both, we handle them together.

Yes. As part of the cleanup we move your file onto a standard chart of accounts for your type of business, so your reports are easy to read.
