Exact Online Backlog Reconciliation Cleanup

Job ID: 40173162

Budget: $1,500 – $3,000 USD

I’m ready to clear a reconciliation backlog in Exact Online that now spans well over six months. Every bank statement, sales invoice, and purchase invoice is already uploaded, so you can dive straight into the cleanup without waiting on extra paperwork.

The two core tasks are:
• Bank reconciliations – match every bank-feed line to its corresponding entry and bring all bank accounts to a “fully reconciled” status.
• Invoice matching – link each uploaded sales and purchase invoice to its payment, marking anything outstanding or partially paid.

Once both areas are balanced, I’d like a brief wrap-up report that flags any unreconciled items or anomalies I should review. You’ll get accountant-level access in Exact Online and can message me anytime if you need clarification on a transaction.

If you have solid experience handling multi-month backlogs in Exact Online, let me know your turnaround estimate and a couple of similar projects you’ve completed. I’m eager to get the books current and audit-ready again.
