Monthly bookkeeping

Dedicated Bookkeeping Support in Indianapolis

Stop chasing the books in Indianapolis. We keep them accurate, categorized and closed on time so you make decisions on numbers you trust.

  • Transactions coded as they land, not in a year-end rush
  • A short written note on what moved and why
  • Plain-English summary of what changed

Distribution, warehousing and manufacturing supply make up most of the local work, and they share one dominant risk: cost of goods. It is the largest number in the accounts and the one most often wrong, usually because inventory is counted as an expense at purchase rather than when it is sold.

What's included

What our service covers in Indianapolis

Everything below is part of the engagement — no surprise add-ons.

Suspense and uncategorized clearing

Anything we cannot identify is queued for you rather than guessed at, and cleared before the month closes instead of accumulating.

Bank feed management

Feeds connected read-only and the rules reviewed as they age, because a rule written a year ago quietly miscodes for months once a supplier changes.

Account reconciliation

Bank accounts, credit cards, PayPal, Stripe and Square matched line by line to the statement every month.

Monthly close

A real close — balances checked against source documents, suspense cleared, statements confirmed to tie — not just a report export.

Budget vs actual

If you work to a budget we report against it, so the variance conversation happens monthly rather than once a year.

How it runs

What happens after you get in touch

Only the first step needs anything from you.

1

Tell us where things stand

A 20-minute call covering your transaction volume, how many accounts are in play and how far behind (if at all) things are. You get a flat monthly rate on that call.

2

We take over the file

Read-only feeds get connected, the chart of accounts is built or cleaned up, and we agree what belongs in your monthly pack. Roughly a week end to end.

3

It just runs

Transactions are categorized as they arrive, accounts reconcile monthly, and your reports land by the 10th. When something needs a decision, your bookkeeper calls you.

Good fit

This is a good fit if…

  • You have never had a real monthly close, only report exports
  • You want a predictable monthly cost rather than an hourly bill
  • You are spending evenings on the books instead of the business
  • You need lender-ready numbers on a predictable schedule

The account most often mis-stated

If stock is expensed on purchase, profit collapses in the month you buy and inflates in the months you sell. Over a year it roughly evens out, which is why it survives so long undetected — and it makes every individual month useless for decisions.

We hold inventory on the balance sheet and release it to cost of goods as it sells, so each month's margin reflects that month's trading.

For businesses holding parts against long production runs, we keep committed material separate from available stock. Both are inventory; only one of them can be used for something else.

FAQ

Questions about this service

Anything we have not covered, ask on the call — it is free and there is no follow-up sequence.

No. We work in QuickBooks Online for most clients and in Xero where that is already in place. If your file needs setting up, that is part of onboarding.
