Bookkeeping: Do You Have Company Policies and Procedures in Place?

One of the top tips from many successful business owners and top human resource professionals is to institute company policies and procedures for employees. Employee handbooks, corporate best practices, and open communication ensure that employees understand their jobs, know what’s expected of them, and create a lower stress working environment for employers and their subordinates.

The same rules apply for your bookkeeping staff. In the case of bookkeepers, having the proper company policies and procedures in place may be even more important.

When you hire AccountingDepartment.com for all your outsourced bookkeeping needs, we take care of the policies, processes, and procedures for you. Before your full-charge bookkeeper enters a single digit in your QuickBooks files, we all work together during a series of informational meetings.

We will discover your accounting needs as a business owner, and establish company policies and procedures that work for you. These processes and procedures are designed based on our years of experience in accounting and business management, and then tailored to meet your company’s specific needs.

The handbook AcountingDepartment.com maintains internally for you contains:
 

  • Preferred methods of communication
  • Deadlines for delivery of important financial statements
  • A complete description of the daily, weekly, and monthly job duties of your full-charge bookkeeper, software specialist, and financial controller
  • Everything else you need to know about working with a virtual bookkeeping department

People Change, Company Policies and Procedures Don’t
One of the keys to maintaining corporate best practices is consistency. If your full-charge bookkeeper is ever out sick—or leaves our company—you will receive another bookkeeper completely trained in corporate and accounting best practices. Because our policies and procedures are consistent yet customized, it’s easy to get a new bookkeeper up to speed.

You won’t have to spend time training your new bookkeeper; Accountingdepartment.com has already done it for you.

Why not contact us and see what a difference the right procedures can make in your bookkeeping?
