The reconciliation cadence
A clear path from first conversation to a usable findings pack — built for teams who already reconcile banks and need fewer surprises at close.
Four stages, one accountable outcome
Every oversight engagement ends with a written findings memo and a live briefing. We do not leave you with orphaned tick-marks.
-
Inventory the accounts that matter
We agree which bank accounts, clearing codes, and ledger cash lines sit in scope. Out-of-scope accounts stay named so silence is intentional.
-
Age and own the open items
Unmatched receipts, payments, and suspense balances are aged and assigned. Access limits and missing remittances are noted early so findings stay honest.
-
Test matching, cut-off, and sign-off
Auto-matches, force-matches, deposits in transit, and outstanding items are sampled. Gaps are ranked by cash-reporting impact, not by tooling novelty.
-
Brief and hand off
You receive an executive one-pager, a technical appendix, and a session with the people who own the next clear — treasury, AP, AR, or the controller.
What we need from you
- A named owner for access and scheduling
- Read access to bank statements and reconciling packs in scope
- Two or three recent closes with open-item lists worth studying
- A shortlist of accounts that matter to cash reporting
What we do not do
- Install a permanent banking product as part of the engagement
- Promise cash forecasting accuracy or treasury trading support
- Run checkout or payment flows — work is scoped and invoiced separately
