Checkeeper Makes Account Reconciliation Easier and Faster
When you or your bookkeeper need to reconcile your check records with bank statements and other financial documents, Checkeeper’s online account access and online check registry make the process simple and painless, and with fewer errors than when done manually.
Some ways Checkeeper saves time spent on reconciliation and improves accuracy:
The online registry records check information automatically
Reconciling accounts manually is a process that takes a lot of time and is prone to error—especially when your working check registry has inaccuracies. Omitted transactions, duplicated transactions, transposed numbers, incorrect check numbers, and incorrectly recorded vendor names and dates will prevent your registry from balancing and your account statements from matching. Checkeeper puts an end to the mistakes caused by manual data entry by offering an online, automated registry that records and stores all check data for you so that nothing is forgotten or misstated. Check data stored by Checkeeper includes not only the relevant payment information—such as check number, date, payee, amount, memo, etc.—but also includes needed information about the check itself, including the name of the authorized user who created the check and the date and time of each check’s issuing.
The online registry is searchable by any check field
When you need to track down a specific payment in order to research or correct a discrepancy, Checkeeper’s online registry takes a lot of time out of the process. Instead of searching through pages of paper registries and ledgers to locate a payment, search your online registry according to any field on the check: vendor, amount, check number, etc. Checkeeper can pull up instantly the checks that fit the search criteria so that you locate the correct one quickly.
Checkeeper users can run reports according to any custom time frame
When you need to compare bank statements with your check registry, Checkeeper’s custom time frame search option is a most convenient tool for isolating payments made within a given month, quarter, or year. Input the bracketing dates for your designated time frame, and Checkeeper will pull up a complete list for sorting through, as well as a dollar sum of checks printed within that time, making balancing your numbers a faster and more accurate task.
The online registry is accessible from anywhere
You can’t reconcile paper check registries when you don’t have them with you. When you leave the office for the night, work at home, or are traveling, you can still access your Checkeeper check registry right from your device. Checkeeper travels light and goes where you do, so access to your records is always just a few clicks away.
Checkeeper integrates with other accounting software tools
Online, cloud-based tools make storing and retrieving data a more streamlined process than ever before; financial software tools that work together reduce the amount of manual data entry needed to keep all records accurate and synced. Checkeeper works with QuickBooks Online, FreshBooks, Gusto, Square, Patriot Payroll, and other accounting and payroll tools to allow for: paycheck printing, direct conversion of unpaid invoices into check payments, automatic updating of check information in other connected platforms, and more accurate account reconciliation.
Checkeeper means less neglect in the bookkeeping
Bookkeeping and tax preparation are commonly cited as a time and energy drain on new business owners, but neglect in the bookkeeping can lead to funding and cash flow problems down the line, as well as a pile of unpaid bills for services that are needed to keep the business running. Automating tools have come a long way in both capability and affordability so that they are accessible to businesses on virtually any budget. Checkeeper works for thousands of small business owners and bookkeepers as a stand-alone check printing and mailing service, and it works as a software add-on to other accounting products in order to offer customized, printable checks and paychecks. The online registry takes care of all the recording for you so that routine financial management takes less time without compromising accuracy.
