I'm a newly established bookkeeper starting to take on clients now.
Would anyone mind sharing their generalised system or order they do things in from receving the paperwork to Final accounts/TB.
I just produced accounts for my first client up to Final account stage, but I felt I could have done it in a much more efficient way - i therefore charged him less because of this.
I understand that some of it is just personal preference or down to experience, but having some insight from other bookkeeper's systems could be handy!
There is no set way to do a job because each job is different. Some require bookkeeping to be done, before the accounts can really be started. Others come in as a TB. One can be straightforward and you go through the motions and others can be tedious and long winded.
There are a million ways to answer this question, really - and I couldnt even be sure I was answering it correctly, in terms of what you specifically want to know - so maybe just a tad more information? Perhaps, explain how you did your job, and why you thought it was not efficient?
Thanks
