What is remote bookkeeping ?
Remote bookkeeping allows an accountant or bookkeeper to provide accounting services for a client remotely. Telecommuting positions are becoming more common as businesses seek creative ways to find a balance between staffing arrangements and workloads. A virtual bookkeeping arrangement can be beneficial to both the business and the bookkeeper in terms of flexibility and cost.
Remote bookkeeping allows a bookkeeper to telecommute instead of physically working at a client’s office. Aside from the work location, there is not much difference between regular bookkeeping services and a virtual arrangement. A virtual bookkeeper uses computerized bookkeeping software to post financial transactions, review and update statements and reconcile accounts.
How it Works ?
To enable virtual bookkeeping, the customer grants us remote access to its server, software and financial documents. We signs onto the company’s secure network from our computer and accesses the documents just as we would if logged onto an on-site company computer and installs the company’s bookkeeping software onto our computer. As the accountant is employed by us, he/she will be paid according to the our payroll policies and cycle.
