Bookkeeping client onboarding is where the firm establishes the operating rules for the relationship: which accounts are in scope, how source documents arrive, who approves questions, how transactions should be categorized, and when the monthly close is due.
This checklist covers the setup work required before recurring bookkeeping can run cleanly, from securing platform access and connecting feeds to standardizing the chart of accounts and documenting client-specific accounting rules.
