Detailed services and deliverables
Bookkeeping, timesheets, and tax support in detail
From small businesses to enterprises, we connect everyday financial administration with a clear reporting and review process. Choose ongoing bookkeeping, a cleanup project, timesheet support, tax-return preparation and filing, or a coordinated combination. Each engagement identifies the records, tasks, deadlines, and approvals involved.
Accounts payable and vendor records
Organize supplier invoices, due dates, expense categories, and payment-status records. We can prepare an outstanding-bills summary and flag missing invoices or possible duplicates. Your authorized team retains control over payment approval and release unless a separate arrangement is agreed.
Accounts receivable and customer invoices
Maintain customer invoice records, match receipts to invoices, and prepare receivables-aging or outstanding-payment summaries. Agree who creates invoices, approves adjustments, and contacts customers so billing records and follow-up stay connected.
Bank, card, and account reconciliations
Compare the agreed bank, credit-card, and ledger records with statements. Identify unmatched transactions, fees, transfers, and other differences for review. Corrections are based on supporting information, with unresolved items carried into a clear query list.
Timesheet collection and review
Bring employee or contractor time records into a consistent reporting cycle. We can organize submitted hours, project or customer codes, billable-time records, and missing-entry queries, then prepare approved summaries for payroll or invoicing. Managers confirm the accuracy of hours and approve corrections.
Payroll-related bookkeeping support
Organize approved payroll reports, timesheet summaries, reimbursements, and payroll journal information for the agreed bookkeeping workflow. Payroll processing, funds movement, payroll-tax returns, and employment-law decisions are separate responsibilities that must be explicitly included before work starts.
Expenses, receipts, and reimbursements
Match supporting receipts to recorded expenses, organize reimbursement records, and flag missing explanations. We follow your approved account categories and review process; a recorded business expense is not automatically a tax-deductible expense.
Month-end reporting and year-end handover
Prepare agreed income, expense, balance-sheet, receivables, payables, or cash-movement summaries from the available books. A handover identifies the period covered, work completed, outstanding questions, and records required for the next reporting or tax-preparation step.
Catch-up bookkeeping and record cleanup
Define the months or years to review, gather available statements and exports, and organize missing-document requests. We assess opening balances, duplicate entries, uncategorized transactions, and reconciliation gaps before agreeing corrections and an ongoing routine.
Tax-return preparation and filing
Tax-return preparation and filing are available as a separately agreed service. We confirm the taxpayer or entity, return type, tax year, jurisdictions, required records, preparer responsibilities, and filing method before accepting the work. Returns are reviewed with you and filed only after the required authorization; refunds, tax savings, and acceptance are not guaranteed.
Accounting and tax software workflows
We support work involving QuickBooks, Sage, Quicken, and Drake, and provide bookkeeping handover for customers who use TurboTax. The product name alone does not define the work: edition, country version, tax year, licensing, access, and available features must fit the agreed task. Software subscriptions and third-party charges are quoted separately where applicable.
QuickBooks
Bookkeeping, invoice and expense records, reconciliation, and reporting within the agreed QuickBooks product. Timesheet workflows can include QuickBooks Time where the required subscription and features are available. We confirm whether your setup is online or desktop before arranging access.
QuickBooks — official information
Sage
Bookkeeping and financial-record workflows matched to your Sage product and modules. Share the exact product, version, and tasks you need; the Sage name covers different applications and does not imply that every ERP, payroll, or industry module is included.
Sage — official information
Quicken
Transaction organization, categorization, reconciliation, and reports using the functions available in your Quicken edition. Where business and personal records coexist, we agree how they are distinguished in the records supplied. This is not investment management or personal financial advice.
Quicken — official information
Drake
Accounting and tax-preparation workflows scoped to the relevant Drake product. Drake Accounting and Drake Tax serve different purposes; the engagement identifies the application, return or bookkeeping work, tax year, required license, and authorized preparer or reviewer.
Drake — official information
TurboTax users
We can organize bookkeeping records and provide a document handover for customers who choose to self-file using TurboTax. We do not use consumer TurboTax licenses for paid commercial return preparation. Our separately agreed preparation and filing service requires software licensed for professional use.
TurboTax users — official information
Other platforms can be reviewed on request. Naming a product does not imply certification, vendor partnership, official technical support, or support for every version. Do not share passwords, tax identifiers, bank details, payroll files, or customer records through the initial website enquiry.
Timesheet, software, and tax-service questions
Can you handle timesheets without replacing our payroll provider?
Yes. Timesheet administration and payroll-related bookkeeping can be scoped around your existing provider. We agree the reporting period, required fields, approval owner, export format, and cutoff before work begins. Payroll calculation and filing are not automatically part of timesheet support.
Can bookkeeping and tax filing be included in one engagement?
Yes, they can be coordinated, with a separate, explicit scope for tax preparation and filing. The proposal identifies the return, year, jurisdictions, preparer, review process, authorizations, and fees. An audit, tax dispute, or representation before an authority is not automatically included.
Do you support every accounting application and every tax return?
We support the listed workflows subject to the specific product, license, return type, jurisdiction, access arrangement, and agreed work. Send the exact requirements so we can confirm compatibility. A software list is not a promise to support every edition, integration, or filing situation.
