Catch-up recording
Review the agreed backlog and record missing sales, purchases and expenses using the documents available.
UAE / ACCOUNTING CLEANUP
Behind on the books?
Start with clarity.
Give incomplete accounts a practical starting point. Accounting cleanup and catch-up bookkeeping for UAE businesses with overdue records, unexplained balances or a handover that needs attention.
A defined project first. Ongoing support when you need it.
01 / THE SUPPORT
Find the gaps. Work through the records.
A backlog can build during a busy period, a change of accountant or a move between systems. The first step is to establish which periods are affected, what information exists and which balances need explanation.
Reconciliation review
Compare bank and payment statements with the ledger and investigate unmatched items.
Balance corrections
Review classifications and customer or supplier balances, with proposed adjustments supported by the available records.
A clearer handover
Prepare the agreed reconciliations and reporting outputs, and identify unresolved items needing your input.
Final deliverables and responsibilities are confirmed in your proposal.
02 / A PRACTICAL START
Know what a cleanup can resolve.
The condition and completeness of your records determine the scope. Missing invoices or unclear transactions may require your input before an item can be resolved. If the review raises tax questions, any return correction or filing support is agreed separately.
Plan your support on our scope builder ↗Useful details to have ready
- Months or years that need attention
- Bank and payment-account statements for those periods
- Invoices, receipts and existing accounting files
- Known differences, missing records or handover questions
Start with an outline below. We can agree how to share detailed records after the initial conversation.
03 / HOW WE WORK
A clear path from here.
Map the backlog
Identify the affected periods, available documents and the questions you already know about.
Agree the project
Define the work, responsibilities, expected outputs and timing after reviewing the records.
Reconcile and hand over
Work through the agreed scope, document outstanding items and discuss an ongoing routine if needed.
04 / YOUR QUESTIONS
Before we get started.
Can you help with several months of missing bookkeeping?
We can discuss catch-up work across the periods you identify. The proposal depends on record availability, transaction volume and the work needed to reconcile the accounts.
How long does an accounting cleanup take?
Timing is agreed after the initial review. The length of the backlog, number of accounts, missing documents and responses to questions all affect the schedule.
Will cleanup fix previously filed tax returns?
Accounting cleanup does not automatically amend a filed tax return. If adjustments raise a tax issue, we discuss the next steps and separately agree any tax-related work.
Do we need to change accounting software?
We first review your current setup and available exports. Any system change or migration would need to be discussed and agreed separately.
Can you maintain the books after the cleanup?
Yes. We can discuss a monthly bookkeeping scope so the cleaned-up records have a clear route into ongoing support.
05 / LET’S MOVE FORWARD
Focus on your business.
We’ll focus on the numbers.
Tell us which periods are behind, what records you have and any known reconciliation issues.
