Hi all,

I hope the exams went well for everyone that took them this week.
I have an interview tomorrow and one of the duties is the maintenance of the cash book. I have only ever done this in theory so if anyone can give me any advice it would be hugely appreciated!!

Cheers

Sarah

    Hi

    I looked after the cash book in my previous position and do so now.

    I find it best to write up the cash book, reconcile it to the bank and post the entries to the accounts on a daily basis. Try to make sure the reconcilling items are posted to the accounts ASAP, with as little as possible at period end. If possible do this from a daily bank statement.

    In my previous position the cash book was written up only to include the previous days transactions. However, in my current position we cover the day itself but only as far as the bank statement in the morning can go, as various trabsactions may still take place during the day. Therefore, the following day the bank statement would need to be re printed to see any changes.

    Let us know how you get on. Good luck
