REQUIREMENTS<\/b><\/h3>\n
\u2022 Recording and reconciliation of invoices and payments
\u2022 Smooth handling of data from external applications like Service Autopilot and Authorize.net
\u2022 Migration from QuickBooks Desktop (QBD) to QuickBooks Online (QBO) in 2022<\/p>\nSOLUTION<\/b><\/h3>\n
\n<\/b>We began by setting up a tailored chart of accounts based on the client\u2019s business structure and posted opening balances for the year 2020. This foundational step ensured that all future transactions aligned with their service model.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/b>Our team integrated data from Service Autopilot and Authorize.net, converting invoice reports into the correct format for seamless import into QuickBooks Desktop. This helped reduce manual entry and improved invoice accuracy.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/b>We used QuickBooks\u2019 invoice import feature to record invoices and match them with payments. Merchant account deposits were reconciled against bank statements to ensure financial consistency.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/b>Un-deposited fund balances were reviewed and rectified to clean up the balance sheet. All bank and credit card transactions were categorized and reconciled to reflect accurate financial health.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/b>In 2022, the client opted to switch to QuickBooks Online. Our team completed a smooth and timely migration in April 2022, ensuring no data loss and minimal disruption to daily operations.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/b>Throughout the engagement, we maintained responsive communication and shared monthly financial reports, including profit & loss, balance sheet, general ledger, and transaction listings. This provided the client with full visibility into their finances.<\/span><\/p>\nCONCLUSION<\/b><\/h3>\n
