~ April News from Brass Jacks~


The trees have budded and are beginning to leaf-out here in Oregon, and the tulips are popping OFF right now... which can only mean one thing... Spring term of Bookkeeping Foundations is here!

Enrollment is now open for Bookkeeping Foundations and class begins on April 20th. Find out more here:https://www.brassjacks.com/bookkeeping-foundations​

Your books look fine… until they don’t.

Most bookkeepers were taught how to:

- Enter transactions
- Match the bank feed
- Reconcile (hopefully!)

…but not how to spot when things go sideways.

And that’s where the real problems start.

Inside this free 4-part series, you’ll see:

>>The mistakes that quietly wreck the financials (even when everything “looks right”)
>>Why deleting transactions can create bigger messes later
>>The difference between bookkeepers CPAs trust… and the ones they avoid

If your process is “do the checklist and move on”… this is your wake-up call.

Year-end bookkeeping has a way of making even experienced bookkeepers second-guess themselves. Did you get all the W-9s? Does payroll actually tie out? Are those assets coded correctly? What about the loan account? Is the Balance Sheet accurate? And then January arrives…and suddenly you’re trying to find the answers while also trying to get 1099s and year-end work finished. This year, we’re doing it differently. The Year End Bookkeeping Series + Live Work Groups will take you through the...

Hi Reader, When a nonprofit client asks: “Can we use this money?” Suddenly a question that sounds simple… isn’t. Because now you’re thinking about: Donor restrictions. Grant requirements. Programs. Reporting. How it was set up in QuickBooks. What the CPA will expect later. And whether the decision you make today is going to create a mess six months from now. If you’ve ever thought: “I know bookkeeping. Why do I suddenly feel like I don’t know what I’m doing?” That’s exactly why we created...
