We Help You Setup Your QBO Account the Right Way on the 1st Day
With this service, your accountant will send you a notification request for a Screen Share Meeting to discuss the setup of your new QuickBooks Online account. The first step will be to determine your company settings based on the features you plan to use in your account. Your accountant needs to know whether you want to create projects and track inventory. These options are only available in the QuickBooks Online Plus and QuickBooks Online Advanced subscriptions. Your accountant will also need to know whether you plan to create progress invoices, billable expense invoices, customer estimates and purchase orders. You will also determine how to customize your chart of accounts and products and services lists.

We Create the Lists You Need to Create Purchase and Sales Forms
Before you begin creating purchase and sales forms in your new QuickBooks Online account, you will need to create 4 Required Lists as follows:
Chart of Accounts
Vendors
Customers
Products and Services
We Customize Your Lists to Meet Your Specific Business Needs
Your accountant will send you a notification requesting each of the above noted lists that will show up in your client dashboard. Information can be entered directly into the request within your client dashboard. We recommend that you use the Excel templates that your accountant will upload for you into the From My Accountant located within your document upload portal. The completed templates can be uploaded into a folder within your secure document upload portal or emailed directly to your accountant. Your accountant will create your lists in your QBO account and upload a Customer, Vendor, Chart of Accounts and Products and Services Report for your review into the From My Accountant folder located within your document upload portal.
We Help You Connect Bank, Credit Card and Third-Party Apps
With this service, your accountant can assist you during your Chime Meeting with connecting your business bank, credit card, POS and third-party applications to QuickBooks Online. Only 90 days of transactions come into your bank feeds when you first connect an account. Your accountant can assist you with downloading and uploading any missing transactions into your QBO bank feeds to categorize and add to your account registers. We will also make sure that your new chart of accounts aligns with your connected bank, credit card and POS (Point-of-Sale) accounts. We can additionally advise you on the setup of classes, locations, multicurrency, tax agencies, tax rates, projects, employees, and bank rules to automate the bank feed categorization process.
