Accounting Considerations During COVID-19

  • Try to keep as on schedule as much as possible for all of the regular and annual tasks, like audit and 990
  • Establish remote access to business files and accounting software. Is it hosted?
  • Explore the operations of an A/P workflow to pay bills and make ACH payments. One option is to use Bill.com.
  • Schedule remote meetings and regularly touch base with team members. For more on remote meetings, see below. 

Questions to Ask

How will you..

  • Deposit checks?
  • Pay bills?
  • Manage credit card transactions and compile your receipts?
  • Get your invoices?
  • Track employee time cards/sheets?
  • Manage employee leave? Do you need to make adjustments to your leave plans? Keep your policies up to date.  

Create Your Transition Plan

  • Develop a list of tasks that can be done remotely vs. those that cannot. If the task(s) cannot be completed remotely, determine if the task(s) can temporarily be suspended.
  • Determine if your company will continue remote work
  • How will your accounting department function in the new “normal”?
  • How will you schedule your team to ensure compliance with state and local requirements?
