Questions, answered
Will it make any adjustments or journal entries in QuickBooks?
No. WebRun reads and verifies only. Any adjustments, accruals, or journal entries are yours to make after reviewing the checklist output.
Can I customise the checklist tasks?
Yes - add, remove, or reorder tasks in the Google Sheet. WebRun reads the list from the sheet each run so your close process is fully under your control.
What if the close is not finished in one run?
WebRun updates statuses each time it runs, so you can run it daily in the last week of the month and watch the checklist fill up as items are completed.
