Year End Tips and Tricks


The end of the year is a busy, crazy time for you. We know, because it's a busy, crazy time for us as well. Most folks operate on a fiscal year that coincides with the calendar year, which means that it's time for everyone to close their accounting year.

We've created this guide to help you through all things year-end related. Here you will find articles, tips, tricks, answers, and most importantly, relief. Hopefully, most of your year-end questions and concerns can be addressed here. If you can't find the solution to your problem on this page, please contact us through our contact page, or by calling us at (800) 486-1800.

Please bear in mind that there will be a substantial increase in our call volume during this time. We respond to calls on a first come-first served basis, so we will assist you as soon as we can. Included below are answers to some of the most common issues we've seen year-to-year, so there's a good chance you won't have to wait.

Without further delay, on to the articles!
