QuickBooks cleanup

QuickBooks File Cleanup in Nashville, Tennessee

We take QuickBooks files that no longer reconcile and make them reliable again — starting with a written diagnostic rather than a guess, and finishing with a file your CPA can use.

  • Undeposited funds and suspense accounts cleared
  • One named bookkeeper on the file from start to finish
  • Work sequenced by impact, not by what is easiest

Files belonging to sole proprietors receiving income from several payers accumulate a customer list that has stopped being useful. The same payer entered under a company name, a trading name and an abbreviation, so no report can show what any relationship is actually worth.

What's included

What our service covers in Nashville

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.

Chart of accounts repair

We merge duplicate accounts and restructure the chart, then remap history so your prior-year comparisons still work.

Vendor and customer dedupe

The same supplier entered three ways splits your reporting three ways. We merge duplicates carefully so history and open balances survive the merge.

Report pack rebuild

We rebuild the profit and loss, balance sheet and cash summary you actually use, so the reports you open each month reflect the repaired file.

Reconciliation catch-up

Each bank, card and processor account is reconciled to its statement so the file agrees with the real world.

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…

  • You are considering starting a fresh file and want advice first
  • Opening balance equity holds a number nobody can explain
  • The chart of accounts has grown to hundreds of unused lines
  • Duplicate customers and vendors have quietly multiplied

A name list that fragmented

When one payer appears three times, income from that relationship reports as three modest sources rather than one significant one. Decisions about where to put effort get made on a picture that is simply wrong.

We consolidate the list, checking usage before merging, since merging cannot be reversed and similar names occasionally represent genuinely different payers.

Where income types have been recorded inconsistently, we settle on one treatment and apply it across the history, so the trend in each source becomes visible rather than being obscured by the coding.

FAQ

Questions about this service

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

Occasionally starting a fresh file with clean opening balances is genuinely cheaper than unpicking the old one. If we think that is your situation we say so during the diagnostic, explain the trade-offs and let you decide.
