Where the scope
gets drawn

“Payroll” means several different jobs, and being precise about which ones sit where is more useful than a broad claim. Running payroll itself, filing payroll tax returns, and handling employment tax registration are distinct responsibilities — some belong with a payroll provider, some with your CPA.

What Bluebonnet holds is the bookkeeping side: making sure every payroll run lands in the ledger correctly, that the liability and expense accounts reconcile, and that the payables side is tracked, scheduled, and recorded rather than living in a pile.

The exact division is agreed at the consultation and written down, so nobody discovers in April that a task had no owner.

The payables side

Bills, handled
before they are urgent

Tracked

Every bill captured against the right vendor and account when it arrives, not when someone chases it.

Scheduled

Due dates visible in advance, so payment timing is a decision you make rather than a deadline you meet late.

Recorded

Payments matched to bills and reconciled against the bank, so payables never quietly double-count.

Why it matters
to the close

Payroll and payables are the two areas that most often break a month-end close. An unrecorded payroll run distorts both expenses and liabilities; an untracked bill makes the profit-and-loss look better than the business actually is.

Holding these alongside monthly bookkeeping is what keeps the close clean, which is why most clients take them together.

  • Vendor records kept clean and current
  • Payroll reconciled to the ledger each cycle
  • Clear written division of responsibilities
  • Pricing confirmed before any work begins
