Month-end close doesn’t need to take five days. These are the twelve steps our fastest customers follow to finish in an afternoon.
Before the month ends
Match every card transaction to a receipt
Chase outstanding invoices older than 30 days
Review subscriptions due next month
On closing day
Reconcile each account against your ledger
Book accruals and deferred revenue
Lock the period in your accounting tool
Syncing transactions to your accounting tool daily turns closing day into a review instead of a rebuild.
Print the list, assign an owner to each step and time yourself next month. Most teams cut their close in half on the first try.
