The task
Received is different from reviewed.
Month-end follow-up is a coordination task: which items were requested, what arrived and what still needs attention? Keep those states separate from professional review.
Example month-end checklist
- Bank statement
- Received · awaiting review
- Card statement
- Missing
- Sales summary
- Received · awaiting review
- Next reminder
- Request card statement only
Designed around the next step.
02
Stop redundant reminders
A received item leaves the missing list. Exceptions and client replies go to the responsible person.
03
Hand over for review
Collection complete means ready for the bookkeeper to inspect—not that the books are finished.
What’s included.
- One recurring document-collection workflow
- Client/period checklist and reminder rules
- Connection to the agreed portal or task system
- Review, exception and pause behavior with a pilot test set
Before we begin.
Start with your current tools
We check the portal or practice-management software before building an additional workflow. Native reminders may already cover the task.
Outside this scope
Reconciliation, classification, payroll decisions and financial advice. Document permissions and retention must be agreed before connecting systems.
