How to Record Accounts Receivable at Year-End (Without Using Invoicing in QBO)
October 22, 2025
A corporation doesn’t need to use invoicing throughout the year to stay compliant with accrual accounting. If revenue is earned before year-end but payment arrives in the next fiscal year, a simple journal entry can create a temporary receivable without building a full AR system. This ensures revenue is recognized in the correct year while keeping day-to-day bookkeeping simple.

Cash vs Accrual Accounting (Explained in Plain English)
October 21, 2025
Cash accounting records income when you receive payment, while accrual accounting records income when the work is completed. Corporations in Canada are expected to use accrual so revenue appears in the correct fiscal year, but this does not require a full AR workflow or invoicing system. A simple year-end adjustment can bring statements into accrual if needed. The purpose of accrual is timing accuracy, not administrative complexity.

When Should a Small Corporation Start Using Accounts Receivable?
October 21, 2025
AR is not required for CRA compliance, but it becomes necessary once a business has multiple outstanding customer balances or delayed payment timing. Small, early-stage service corporations can stay compliant without using AR, but as volume grows or collections become harder to track manually, AR shifts from a convenience to a core financial tool. The need for AR begins when you can no longer instantly answer who owes you, how much, and since when.

Do Corporations Need an Accounts Receivable Workflow for CRA Purposes?
October 20, 2025
Accounts Receivable is not required by the CRA — it’s an internal cash-flow and tracking tool, not a legal filing obligation. The CRA only cares that income is recorded in the correct fiscal year, not whether it is managed through invoicing software or a full AR cycle. A small service-based corporation can stay fully compliant using simple income entries, and only needs manual AR adjustments if year-end timing differences exist. AR becomes a business decision, not a compliance requirement.

How to Record CRA Payroll Remittances in QuickBooks Online (Properly and Cleanly)
October 19, 2025
Recording CRA payroll remittances correctly means treating them as a payment against payroll liabilities — not as a new expense. The expense is created when payroll is run, and the remittance simply clears the balance owed to CRA. Posting the payment this way keeps the financials accurate, prevents double-counting payroll costs, and ensures clean year-end reconciliation.
