Exception Clearing Sprint

A focused sprint that turns a backlog of open reconciling items into a managed queue with owners, evidence, and write-off decisions where appropriate.

Open reconciling items accumulate when nobody owns the follow-up. This sprint inventories the backlog, ages it by risk, and walks finance through clearing or escalating each material item. The outcome is a shorter open list and a repeatable method for the next close — not a one-off tidy-up that reappears next month.

Included in this engagement

  • Prioritised ageing of unmatched receipts and payments
  • Owner assignment for each material open item
  • Evidence checklist for items ready to clear
  • Write-off and suspense guidance for residual balances
