Balance Sheet clean up help

Does anyone have suggestions for help in cleaning up a balance sheet?  I started using QuickBooks several years ago and was self-taught for my own business, so things are messy in my files.  I know what I'm doing now, but I really need to get the balance sheets cleaned up so they reflect our current business and I'm not sure how to go about it.  I would love to either hire someone or get some guidance for the three files I have.

 

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks so much!

Hi there!

 

Cleaning up your balance sheets in QuickBooks Online (QBO) after several years of self-managing is a great step toward keeping your books accurate and up to date.

 

Since this involves reviewing historical data, reconciling accounts, and potentially making correcting journal entries across multiple files, I'd recommend connecting with a professional who specializes in this type of service.

 

You may consider QuickBooks Live Bookkeeping, a reliable service for cleanup and ongoing bookkeeping. Certified professionals will review, fix, and maintain your books, so you can focus on growing your business. Check out this resource to proceed: QuickBooks Live Bookkeeping service.

 

Additionally, you can search for a certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor near you. They specialize in cleanup projects and can guide you through the process for all of your QuickBooks files. You can use the Find an Accountant tool to connect with a professional nearby.

 

If you prefer a hands-on approach with expert guidance, a ProAdvisor can also offer consulting and coaching while you handle the cleanup yourself.

 

Moving forward, reconcile your accounts monthly to ensure your balance sheet remains accurate, aligning your books with your bank and credit card statements.

 

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions along the way.

What do you mean with three files? Do you have 3 QB Desktop files or 3 QB Online accounts?
