Bookkeeping. Year-round. Closed by the 7th.
Reconciled records every month, organised in Compliance Vault™ — audit-ready, year-round.
The standard UK accountancy model assembles records in January. That's bookkeeping done badly. Through Compliance Vault™, your records are reconciled monthly with a hard close on the 7th of the following month — so your numbers are accurate while they still matter.
Is this for you?
- Every UK business that wants visible monthly numbers, not annual surprises
- Limited companies that need management accounts for decisions, banks, or investors
- VAT-registered businesses requiring digital records under MTD
- Landlords with multiple properties needing portfolio-level reporting
- Sole traders moving towards MTD Income Tax (April 2026)
What's included.
Monthly reconciliation
Bank, card, and PayPal accounts reconciled monthly — no carry-forward unknowns.
Invoice & receipt capture
Sales invoices and supplier bills entered with VAT capture and category coding.
Monthly close on the 7th
Hard cut-off on the 7th of each month. After that, late records trigger the late-close protocol.
MTD digital records
All records kept to MTD digital-link standards from day one.
Software setup
Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent — set up and integrated with your bank and Compliance Vault™.
VAT-ready transactions
Every transaction VAT-coded so quarterly returns are a confirmation, not a reconstruction.
The system that turns this service into a year-round process.
Evidence Pack stores every record in audit-ready form. Deadline Lock tracks the 7th-of-month close cutoff. Portfolio Reporting Pack uses the reconciled data to produce monthly P&L, balance sheet, and cash position — delivered by the 7th of each month.

What you get from us that you don't get elsewhere.
Monthly close, not annual scramble
Records closed by the 7th. Numbers are accurate when decisions are being made.
MTD ready by design
Digital records and digital links from day one. No retrospective re-mapping when MTD rules change.
No data dumping
We don't accept 'just send the bank statements in December'. Compliance Vault™ requires monthly discipline — that's why standards work.
Software-agnostic
Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent — we work with what you have or set up what you need.
Bookkeeping. Year-round. Closed by the 7th — common questions.
What's included in monthly bookkeeping?
Bank reconciliation across all accounts, sales and purchase invoice entry, VAT coding, expense capture, supplier statement reconciliation, and a monthly close on the 7th. The Portfolio Reporting Pack — your monthly numbers — is delivered after the close.
What does the 7th-of-month close mean?
Your records for the previous month must be submitted to us by the 7th. We then reconcile, close, and deliver your Portfolio Reporting Pack. Late records trigger the late-close protocol — one per quarter included free; further late closes are +25% on the monthly fee. The standard exists to protect quality across all clients.
Which software do you use?
We're software-agnostic. Most clients are on Xero or QuickBooks Online; some on FreeAgent. We can set up new software during onboarding or migrate from your existing platform. The software is incidental — Compliance Vault™ defines what gets done.
Will you handle my receipts?
Yes. Most clients use Dext or Hubdoc for digital receipt capture (we set up during onboarding). Receipts are processed, VAT-coded, and matched to transactions automatically. Paper receipts can be photographed via the mobile app.
How much does bookkeeping cost?
Sole traders from £100/month; limited companies £200–£600/month depending on transaction volume, VAT status, and whether you need management accounts. Specifics agreed in writing after the discovery call.
