QuickBooks Cleanup (QuickTune-Up)
If your QuickBooks file is behind, unreconciled or full of mystery balances, a QuickTune-Up gets it accurate again. We find and fix the problems, then leave you with books you can trust.
How Nelson & Associates handles QuickBooks Cleanup (QuickTune-Up)
Common problems include duplicate transactions from bank feeds, uncategorized expenses, payments not matched to invoices, undeposited funds piling up, incorrect opening balances, unreconciled accounts and sales tax that doesn't match filed returns. Left alone, they produce wrong financial statements and wrong tax returns.
Our cleanup starts with a diagnostic review and a fixed quote. We then reconcile every bank and credit card account, correct categorization, clear out stale balances, match receivables and payables and tie the balance sheet to supporting records. Finally, we recommend process changes, or ongoing bookkeeping, so the file stays clean.
Who this is for
- Businesses months or years behind on books
- Owners preparing for a loan, sale or tax return
- Companies whose bookkeeper left unexpectedly
- Files with unreconciled accounts or odd balances

Will cleanup change my past tax returns?
Sometimes corrections reveal that a prior return was wrong. We explain the impact and whether an amended return makes sense.
Can I keep using QuickBooks during the cleanup?
