• It’s Friday morning before a long weekend. You’re reconciling several accounts for a client whose CPA is waiting on financials. One final statement is missing and the client hasn’t responded, but the reviewer is waiting on your work. Shortly after, your manager asks you to create bills in QBO for invoices that just came in by email so payments can be released. This client is anxious and expects quick turnaround. While entering the bills, you notice two conflicting sets of ACH instructions, one familiar and one not. At the same time, it’s 1099 season and you need to complete a vendor review for another client by the end of next week. Question: What do you communicate immediately, and to whom? Where do you look for additional or missing information? How do you flag blockers or risks? If you’re unsure how to prioritize, how do you decide? How do you track decisions so nothing is missed?
