How to use the checklist

With a growing list of tasks to complete, month-end is often a time-consuming, stressful process. Financial reports are often delivered so late in the month that it can slow down otherwise-agile businesses. While every business has its own procedures, efficient accountants have learned to push everything that doesn’t have a material impact out of the closing day. Use this checklist to organise and streamline your process and make room for value-added, money-making tasks. Designed specifically for high-performing finance teams, this low-hanging fruit checklist will help you focus your attention on delivering strategic insights, not busywork.
