Does Your Bookkeeper have OCD?3 Essentials to Great Bookkeeping

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a condition where people feel the need to check things repeatedly, perform certain routines repeatedly (called “rituals”), or have certain thoughts repeatedly. While many may consider this condition a detriment – as the people who keep track of the details of your business – we consider it a strength. Our job is to check and double-check to ensure the numbers are solid.

In bookkeeping, we define OCD slightly differently – Organization, Consistency, and Discipline.

  • Organization – Our job is to ensure your books are set up correctly, entries are recorded accurately to the right accounts, and, ultimately, everything reconciles.
  • Consistency – We offer our clients the peace of mind that the financial reports are always accurate and current, offering actionable insights into the health of their business.
  • Discipline – If payroll is due on the 1st, it must be on the 1st. Not the 2nd, not the 3rd. Our team has the experience and discipline to meet established deadlines.

Having OCD explains a lot about bookkeepers. But seriously, our job is to attend to the details of the numbers, to make sure that your financial information is organized, to be consistent with how things are coded and recorded, and to be disciplined and ensure that the “I” s are dotted, and the “t” s are crossed.
