The instruction
“Every Friday, and on the day each card statement closes, pull card transactions through Plaid. Match each one to an expense in QuickBooks by amount, date and merchant, and attach the receipt if we have it. Suggest an account and class for anything unmatched based on past coding. At statement close, confirm the QuickBooks balance equals the statement and ask the bookkeeper to approve the coding.”
