Where to start
Falling behind is common. The useful question is what the backlog contains.
Catch-up starts with the actual condition of the books, not an assumed timeline or a one-size-fits-all project price.
Reports are unreliable
Financial reports cannot be used confidently until the underlying activity is organized and reconciled.
Information is incomplete
Missing statements, unclear transfers, or unanswered questions can expand both scope and timing.
What LedgerCrew handles
What catch-up work may include
Backlog transaction review
Review activity across the months that remain incomplete.
Bank and card reconciliation
Match available statements and resolve differences across the backlog period.
Category cleanup
Correct inconsistent or clearly incorrect transaction treatment where the records support it.
Transfer and owner activity review
Identify transfers, draws, contributions, and other activity that needs clarification.
Missing-information list
Make unresolved access, statements, or questions visible so the project can keep moving.
Monthly transition
Prepare the file for a recurring bookkeeping plan once catch-up is complete.
Scope
What determines scope and timing
Months behind
More open months generally mean more statements, reconciliations, and transaction history to review.
Transaction and account volume
The number of transactions, financial accounts, and systems affects the work required.
File condition
Existing reconciliations, duplicate activity, unclear categories, and setup choices can change the project.
Client responsiveness
Missing documents and delayed answers can pause progress and extend the timeline.
How it works
A clear path from access to usable books.
Review the backlog
Confirm the months behind, accounts involved, file condition, and available information.
Reconcile and clean the history
Work through transactions, statements, differences, and unresolved questions.
Prepare the monthly transition
Confirm when the file is ready for dependable recurring bookkeeping.
Important scope note
Catch-up is a separately scoped project.
The first-month-free offer does not apply to catch-up work. Tax filing is not included, and LedgerCrew does not promise a completion timeline before reviewing the backlog.
QuickBooks ownership
Your books stay in your QuickBooks file.
LedgerCrew works inside the QuickBooks Online file you control, so you keep ownership, admin access, and a clean handoff if your needs change.
Subscription note: QuickBooks Online is billed separately. If you need a subscription, LedgerCrew can provide it and include it on your bill.
FAQ
Questions, answered plainly.
What is catch-up bookkeeping?
Catch-up bookkeeping addresses months of incomplete recurring work so accounts can be reconciled and the file can return to a dependable monthly close.
How is catch-up priced?
It is scoped separately based on months behind, transaction volume, account count, file condition, missing information, and other complexity.
How long will catch-up take?
A completion timeline cannot be promised before the backlog and available records are reviewed. Client responsiveness and missing information materially affect timing.
Does the first month free apply?
No. Catch-up is separately scoped project work and is not included in the first-month-free offer.
Is tax filing included?
No. Catch-up bookkeeping does not include tax filing.
Can monthly bookkeeping begin afterward?
Yes. Once the backlog is complete and the books are ready, LedgerCrew can confirm the appropriate recurring monthly plan.
