Accounting and tax support for companies and sole traders on DitWork should operate as a controlled workflow with defined inputs, deadlines, owners and review points. The assignment may cover source documents, transaction classification, reconciliations, working registers and reporting preparation, while statutory approvals remain with the authorised person.

Reliable records preserve the chain from contract and invoice to payment, delivery evidence, ledger entry and report. Missing evidence or conflicting values should appear in an exception log rather than being hidden through an unsupported manual adjustment.

Possible scope

  • processing and classifying source documents under approved rules;
  • reconciling bank, cash, sales, purchases and counterparty balances;
  • maintaining income, expense, receivable and payable registers;
  • preparing working papers for statutory and management reporting;
  • maintaining a document and filing calendar with escalation points;
  • producing calculation schedules and explanations for the responsible accountant.

Information required in the brief

  1. Entity and jurisdiction. State the legal form, country, tax regime and period.
  2. Transaction volume. Include document counts, bank accounts, employees, currencies and sales channels.
  3. Systems. List the accounting platform, banks, CRM and import or export formats.
  4. Responsibilities. Identify who approves entries, signs filings and communicates with authorities.
  5. Close calendar. Set dates for document delivery, reconciliation and final review.
  6. Acceptance tests. Define control totals, tolerance rules, required reports and the exception-log format.

Document control and permissions

Use a consistent folder and naming convention. Each record should identify the counterparty, date, reference, transaction type, reporting period and processing status. Corrected documents need visible version history rather than silent replacement.

Apply least-privilege access. Do not share an owner's personal password, signing key or irreversible payment rights as a default. Separate accounts, activity logs and expiry dates make the engagement easier to supervise and close safely.

Monthly close workflow

  1. Receive the document package and record completeness.
  2. Import and classify transactions under the approved rules.
  3. Reconcile bank, cash, sales, purchases and counterparties.
  4. Issue a missing-document and clarification list.
  5. Review control relationships and material variances.
  6. Deliver registers, reports and the exception log for acceptance.

Tax, payroll and regulated decisions

Tax and payroll calculations depend on current rules, employee status and transaction facts. The working paper should state the rule set and verification date. Activities that require certification, licensed advice or an authorised electronic signature must be completed by a person with the relevant authority.

No contractor can guarantee that a business will avoid an audit, penalty or additional assessment. Tax disputes, cross-border structures, transfer pricing and material uncertain positions require separate professional review.

Quality indicators

  • reported figures trace back to source evidence;
  • bank and ledger balances reconcile at the same cut-off date;
  • unsupported transactions are visible in a separate register;
  • adjustments include comments and version history;
  • reporting methods and assumptions are documented;
  • the client receives editable files, instructions and next actions.

Starting safely

Before committing to recurring support, use one completed period as a paid diagnostic. It reveals document quality, integration issues, exception volume and the realistic effort required for each close.

Post the assignment on DitWork with the accounting system, deadlines, responsible contacts and an anonymised sample. State who answers operational questions and who performs the final approval on behalf of the business.

Useful sections and next steps

Questions before ordering work

What should a company accounting brief include?

State the entity type, jurisdiction, tax regime, period, transaction volume, systems, responsible people, close calendar and acceptance tests.

Can recurring source-document work be outsourced?

Yes, when classification rules, delivery dates, control totals, exception handling and approval responsibilities are documented.

How should bookkeeping recovery begin?

Start with one-period diagnostics, a document inventory, opening-balance review and a missing-record register, then divide the recovery into milestones.

Should an electronic signing key be shared?

Not by default. Use least privilege and separate accounts. Signing actions should remain with an authorised person under a specific procedure.

Can penalties or audits be ruled out?

No. Better records can reveal risks and improve control, but authority decisions depend on facts, evidence and current law.

How is a monthly close accepted?

Review registers, bank reconciliation, missing-document lists, control relationships, adjustment explanations and the next-action schedule.
