Bookkeeping and accounting are closely related financial processes, but they differ primarily because bookkeeping focuses on recording data, while accounting focuses on analyzing and interpreting that data. Bookkeeping is the day-to-day work of logging transactions, and accounting uses those logs to build strategies, taxes, and reports.
You should update your financial books weekly or monthly, depending on your transaction volume and business type. High-volume businesses like restaurants and retail shops need daily or weekly tracking, while low-volume service businesses can manage with monthly updates.

Accurate. Reliable. Professional.
