Book Keeping Task/Monthly review
From PCSAR
Every month, the books should be reviewed for assurance that they are being kept up to date and accurate. This is normally done by the person the Bookkeeper reports to: e.g. the Treasurer.
The Bookkeeper should do this in advanced to make sure everything is correct and ready before the review.
