Monthly bookkeeping
Ongoing bookkeeping and a full month-end close in your accounting software.
- Everything in the list above
- Reports every month
- Monthly review call on request
Bookkeeping that is closed, reconciled and CPA-reviewed every month.
We keep your books current in QuickBooks, Xero, Odoo or Excel, reconcile every account, and send you clear financial statements each month. Behind by months or years? We catch you up first.

Each account reconciled to the statement, down to zero difference.

Profit & loss, balance sheet and cash flow, with short notes on anything unusual.
- ✓Year-end tax package
Clean, closed books ready for your return, whether we file it or your own CPA does.

FAQ
Bookkeeping questions.
How do you access my books?
You invite us as a user or accountant in QuickBooks, Xero or Odoo. For bank statement bookkeeping, you upload statements to a shared folder. We never ask for your bank login.
What do I need to send each month?
Usually nothing beyond answering a short list of questions about unclear transactions. If your bank is not connected to your software, we ask for monthly statements.
I already have a tax preparer. Can you still help?
Yes. We keep your books and send your preparer a clean year-end package. Or we can prepare the return ourselves if you prefer.
Can you switch me from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online or Odoo?
Yes. We handle the migration, check that balances match after the move, and keep bookkeeping running during the switch.
Is payroll included?
No. Payroll and receivables & payables are separate add-on services, so you only pay for what you use.
