From interview w. Fierdous

Month-in

1. need to do all records for month-in

  • capture and update all records at the end of the month

  • Close accordingly

2. petty cash (not doing atm, since we're all working from home)

  • record

  • miscellaneous exp, sugar, paper, etc.

  • Receipt is brought back

  • The following is captured on a slip of paper:

    • what was bought

    • how much money was spent

    • where it was bought

    • what code; under 'what do I have to capture that'

  • at the end of the month, I take the whole batch of that petty cash for the month to Adi. Then he'll check every receipt and every slip of paper, then sign off .

  • Then I need to capture that on my Xero every month.

Banking records; at the moment, Janine is doing that. I just set up all the banking records for her in a separate folder, where all the bank accounts are kept. I put the records in the folder, then she checks the back records for me.

Other than that; the payments every month. There's a new thing where

3. The project managers have to do their own receipting now.

  • I still check on them.

That's end-of-the-month work, where I go in and

  • do the receipting process

  • do all the receipting

  • It's put into a payment spreadsheet for Adi, with:

    • the date

    • the supplier

    • the invoice number

    • the amount

  • I put a link to the invoice for Adi to check

    • the account where I captured it (ex: admin, software and hosting, etc.)

    • the project where I captured it (ex: communication, etc.)

    • input the project code- a core expense. ]

  • Funding source code- I also put a code in there

  • link to the budget

  • Loaning- it's me, I put my name in

  • At the end of the day, Adi and the project manager will put "approved"

  • Insert template here:
