Expert Ledger Set-up

The key to a successful general ledger system setup is to work with your accountant. Our accountants will consider the accounting implications particular to your needs. We can make sure your system functions well from the start. Simmons Accounting Services brings the knowledge and experience that is needed to ensure an accurate and expert setup of your accounting system. We will train you in the correct use of the general ledger accounts which will ensure not only a clear audit trail, but accurate and meaningful financial statements.

	Correct setup and maintenance of the general ledger is essential, as it is the core of your company’s financial records. These records constitute the central “books” of your system.
	The financial statements (balance sheet and profit and loss statement) are drawn directly from the general ledger. A well-maintained ledger also creates an audit trail from which any discrepancies can be traced.
	The chart of accounts, the core engine of the general ledger, must be properly designed to produce financial reports that serve management's needs.
	Your accounting system will have a number of sub ledgers for items such as cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. All the entries that are entered to these sub ledgers will transact through the general ledger account.
	If the subsidiary ledger setup is incorrect, it will not agree with general ledger balances, or will show transactions posted to the wrong accounts.
	Reconciliation differences due to incorrect setup of the general ledger and chart of accounts will require additional staff or consultant time, and dollars, to correct.
	The general ledger creates an internal audit trail of all transactions that can trace discrepancies (double billing or an unrecorded payment). You must be able to find the origin of any transaction in order to verify its accuracy, and the general ledger is where you will do this.
