QuickBooks Diagnostic and Cleanup in San Diego, California
QuickBooks file a mess in San Diego, California? We clean up undeposited funds, duplicates and misused accounts, then document every correction so it stays fixed.
- Read-only access — we never need to move money
- A full diagnostic of your file before anything changes
- Prior-year comparisons still work after the repair
Two different kinds of broken file arrive from here. Research companies whose class tracking for funding sources was set up by someone who has since left, and hospitality operators whose daily sales entries have been duplicating against the bank feed for months.
What our service covers in San Diego
Everything below is part of the engagement — no surprise add-ons.
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.
Payroll clearing cleanup
Payroll wired in through an integration often leaves a clearing account that never zeroes. We trace what is stuck in it and clear it against the real runs.
Opening balance equity cleanup
A balance sitting in opening balance equity means something was set up without a counterpart. We work out what, then post it where it belongs.
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.
Duplicate removal
Charges entered twice, feed reconnections that pulled history again, payments booked against the wrong invoice — all found and corrected.
What happens after you get in touch
Only the first step needs anything from you.
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.
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.
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.
Why San Diego businesses choose Feather Accounting
This is a good fit if…
- Your bank reconciliations have not matched in months
- You are preparing for a loan application, a sale or due diligence
- Duplicate customers and vendors have quietly multiplied
- You are considering starting a fresh file and want advice first
Two failure modes
In a funded company the usual damage is partial class assignment — some transactions carry a funding source, some do not, and the resulting report omits whatever was missed without saying so. Silent omission is more dangerous than a visible error.
In a hospitality file the damage is duplication: a sales summary entered manually and the same money arriving through the bank feed, inflating both revenue and deposits.
Both are fixable. Both need the historical data corrected rather than just the settings, since correcting the setting alone leaves every prior period wrong.
