Starting Bookkeeping Business

Hello Laura!

Welcome to your new environment, the QuickBooks Online Accountant platform! There's nothing much different in the process with the Enterprise version, except the interface, so I'm pretty sure this will just be a piece of cake to you. We're also here to help.

For bank reconciliations, just be sure that the transactions listed in a client's bank register in a statement match the transactions in their statement. See more references for bank reconciliation here.

For A/R and A/P reconciliations, you can open the General Ledger report and run the report for the A/R and A/P sub-ledgers in the Chart of Accounts. Actually, you will no longer have to compare them because their respective amounts are reflected in the GL report in detail.

You can find more references for QuickBooks Online Accountant on the QuickBooks Support page.

We're just around if you have follow-up questions.

Hi JessT 

Thank you so much for your reply , but may be you didn't get my main point ? 

1 . I am saying that I want to start and  personal own LLC business. 

(having my own business offering bookkeeping services for real ) and I am thinking to offer just AP services and AR services  and bank reconciliation services to start with . This is where i feel more confident.

I am wondering would there be any interesting client to get just these few services without any payroll or taxes or other more complex accounting tasks included.  How would that impact their overall situation ? Their financial statements etc ? 

2. Second do bookkeepers charge a flat rate per month or hourly rates ? 

Thank you 

My name is Deana [last name removed] and I would be interested. I am interested and have a dew small companies a that could use this service. Please call me at [phone number removed].
