What lands at the end of the month.
Not a dashboard of suggestions - a finished close. This is everything in the package, and where each part comes from.
Everything in the package.
The financial statements are the ones QuickBooks or Xero produce for the period, rendered on your letterhead. Bursar does not derive a second set of numbers and show them beside your ledger’s - a close that disagrees with the client’s own file is not a close, it is an argument.
The open-items memo is the honest part.
Every close has loose ends. A product that hides them delivers a package that looks finished and is not. The memo names each one, says who it is waiting on, and says what happens next - which is what makes the rest of the package trustworthy.
- Documents that never arrived, and who they were asked of
- Reconciliation exceptions left open for a decision, stated as the rule that raised them rather than as invented effort
- Items parked this cycle and queued to be re-asked next
- What the reviewer noted when they signed

Whichever channel your firm already uses with that client - and always from your firm, never from us.
See one against a month you already know.
Onboarding closes a past month as a rehearsal, so the first package you read is one you can check.
