Bookkeeping Cleanup

Catch-up bookkeeping and bookkeeping cleanup

Bookkeeping cleanup corrects incomplete, duplicated, or misclassified records for a defined backlog period. The work can include transaction coding, bank reconciliation, credit-card reconciliation, opening-balance review, duplicate removal, and preparation of management reports. Your accountant or tax preparer keeps final authority over tax treatment. We provide a clear change log and open-item list so they can review what changed and what still needs a decision.

What We Handle

QuickBooks cleanup services for overdue financial records

Transaction review and recategorization

We review the cleanup period against your chart of accounts and written coding rules. Duplicate entries, uncategorized items, personal-versus-business questions, and unclear transactions move to an exception list instead of being guessed. You approve the treatment for items that require business context.

Bank reconciliation and account review

We compare bank and credit-card activity with the accounting ledger for each agreed period. Loan and payment-processor activity can be included too. No guessing is allowed. Missing entries and unresolved differences are documented for review.

Financial reporting after cleanup

After coding and reconciliation, we prepare the reports included in your scope, such as a profit and loss statement, balance sheet, cash-flow report, or account-detail schedule. The delivery includes a change log and open questions for your finance lead, CPA, or tax preparer.

Bookkeeping cleanup outsourcing vs. US in-house staffing

Why Acelerar

What bookkeeping cleanup outsourcing includes

Scope Before Work Starts

We define the backlog period, accounts, source documents, deliverables, exclusions, and approval path before cleanup begins. Timing is based on that scope.

99.5% Accuracy SLA

Agreed fields and reconciliations are checked against the available source records. Unclear items are logged for review rather than assigned without support.

QuickBooks and Xero Specialists

Your team works in QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, or Xero using your chart of accounts, close rules, and access controls.

ISO-Certified Controls

Acelerar is ISO 27001 and ISO 9001:2015 certified. The engagement sets access and file-transfer rules. It also defines retention and review steps.

No Setup Fees

Bookkeeping cleanup services start at $7/hour. There are no setup fees, and the approved scope shows the expected hours and deliverables.

Month-to-Month Terms

There is no long-term contract. Continue with ongoing bookkeeping only if the cleanup process and reporting fit your finance operation.

Bookkeeping Cleanup Services FAQs

Bookkeeping cleanup is a defined review of incomplete or inaccurate records. It can include transaction recategorization, duplicate removal, bank reconciliation, opening-balance review, correction of supported entries, and preparation of agreed reports. Items that lack enough evidence remain on an exception list for your decision.
Acelerar bookkeeping cleanup services start at $7/hour. Expected hours depend on the backlog period, monthly transaction volume, number of accounts, source-document quality, and required reports. There are no setup fees, and engagements are month-to-month with no long-term contracts.
Timing depends on the number of periods, accounts, transactions, missing documents, and review cycles. We set a delivery plan after the assessment and identify dependencies that could pause reconciliation. The dedicated team can be deployed in 7 days.
QuickBooks cleanup services can include chart-of-accounts review and transaction coding. Duplicate removal, bank reconciliation, credit-card reconciliation, opening-balance checks, and financial-report preparation can also be included. The final scope states the entities and accounts, along with the periods and reports covered.
Yes. Catch-up bookkeeping can cover several overdue periods when the necessary statements and source records are available. We work from the earliest approved period forward and keep unresolved items visible so later reconciliations are not built on unsupported assumptions.
We prepare the records and reports listed in the scope for review by your tax preparer or CPA. Final tax readiness and tax treatment remain their responsibility because they may require documents or adjustments outside the bookkeeping cleanup scope.
Yes. We support QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, and Xero. Platform access, bank-feed status, lock dates, integrations, and historical statements are reviewed before we confirm the work plan.
Outsourcing can make sense when the backlog is documented, internal finance staff are spending costly time on repetitive corrections, and an owner is available to answer exceptions. Acelerar starts at $7/hour and can deliver 50-70% savings compared with fully loaded US in-house staffing. Keep the work in-house when it needs continuous onsite judgment or access that cannot be delegated safely.
Acelerar is ISO 27001 certified. We define user permissions, file-transfer methods, approved storage, review access, and retention rules before work starts. Your team can limit access by entity, account, or task based on the platform’s controls.
