An unresolved balance can carry from one month into the next. Cleanup starts by finding the last supported reconciliation and identifying which records are available for the periods that follow.
Define the backlog before correcting it
We inventory statements, saved reports, account changes and earlier reconciliation notes. The first objective is to separate missing evidence from entries that can be investigated with the documents already available.
- Map the accounts and periods that need work.
- Review opening balances and carried-forward differences.
- Investigate unmatched activity, transfers and potential duplicate entries.
- Retain the explanation and support for reviewed corrections.
Work forward with a record of what changed
The sequence depends on the records and the questions found. A revised report should remain distinguishable from the export originally reviewed. Keep current-month collection moving while earlier periods are addressed, with separate priorities for each.
The reconciliation exception log provides a practical way to assign evidence requests and track the next review.
A supported starting point for ongoing work
The handoff identifies periods reviewed, changes supported and questions still open. Completion timing depends on account complexity, source availability and follow-up. We confirm the work and a custom quote before starting; an unexplained balancing entry is not treated as a completed investigation.
Working across more than one system?
We can scope this work alongside property software and QuickBooks reconciliation, with clear account mappings, supported entries and a defined reporting handoff.
