QuickBooks cleanup

Clean Up Your QuickBooks File in Houston, TX

QuickBooks file a mess in Houston, Texas? We clean up undeposited funds, duplicates and misused accounts, then document every correction so it stays fixed.

  • A short walkthrough of what changed and why
  • Read-only access — we never need to move money
  • A full diagnostic of your file before anything changes

Energy service files usually have accurate transactions arranged in a way that answers the wrong question. Everything is coded correctly by expense type, and nothing distinguishes the costs that continue when activity stops from the ones that fall away with it.

What's included

What our service covers in Houston

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

Duplicate removal

Charges entered twice, feed reconnections that pulled history again, payments booked against the wrong invoice — all found and corrected.

Documentation handover

You get the change log, a note of every decision that needed judgement, and the open questions we could not answer without you.

Sales tax liability review

We check what the file says you owe against what was actually collected and filed, and flag the gaps for your CPA. We do not prepare or file the returns.

Prior-period close and lock

Once a period is correct we close and lock it, so a stray entry cannot quietly reopen a year you already reported on.

File diagnostic

We review the file account by account and give you a written, ranked list of what is actually wrong before touching anything.

How it runs

What happens after you get in touch

Only the first step needs anything from you.

1

Free diagnostic call

We get read-only access to your file, review it and come back with a written list of what is wrong and what it takes to fix. The findings are yours either way.

2

One fixed quote

A single project fee for the agreed scope, set before work starts. If we find something substantial, we come back to you rather than adding to the invoice.

3

We repair and hand back

Corrections are made in order of impact, each documented as we go. You get the repaired file, the change log and a short walkthrough of what changed and why.

Good fit

This is a good fit if…

  • Your bank reconciliations have not matched in months
  • The file was migrated from Desktop and something broke in transit
  • Your accountant bills extra every year to untangle the file first
  • The same expense lands in a different account depending on who entered it

Structured for the wrong question

For a business whose activity swings hard, the critical figure is what it costs to exist through a quiet period. A standard chart of accounts cannot produce that, because it groups by expense type rather than by behaviour.

We restructure so fixed and variable costs are separable, and reclassify the history so the split can be seen through a previous downturn — which is the most informative period available for judging it.

Allocation between the two is agreed with you, since some costs are genuinely partly both and the boundary is a judgement rather than a fact.

FAQ

Questions about this service

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

Mid-year is usually better. Waiting for year end means another six months of entries built on top of the same problems, and a tighter window when your CPA needs the file.
