Your books are always three weeks behind
Forward a receipt or a bill and it gets booked. Entries post, expenses categorise, the bank reconciles, and the P&L you open today is today's.
The problem
You ask for a P&L and it arrives three weeks later, if it arrives. By then the decision it was for has already been made, so in practice you run the company on the bank balance, which shows cash and nothing else: not what customers still owe you, not what you owe suppliers, not where cash is heading next month. The bookkeeper is not slow; the process is built around a filing deadline, not around you needing to know this week where the cash went.
How YourBooks handles it
Receipts and bills go to one address. They are captured, categorised, and posted to the right accounts as the money moves.
Bank activity matches to your ledger as it happens, so reconciliation is continuous rather than a month-end scramble.
A general ledger, P&L, and balance sheet that are close-ready any day, with receivables and payables on them, instead of a report you request and wait for.
a supplier invoice lands on Tuesday
it is in the books on Tuesday, and Friday's P&L already shows it.
Stop waiting for the report. Read the books when the question comes up.
