Plan recurring entries in QuickBooks. Regular income (retainers, subscriptions): [RECURRING_INCOME]. Regular costs (rent, insurance, software): [RECURRING_COSTS]. Items whose amount changes each month: [VARIABLE_ITEMS]. Automate only the predictable and always check the result. Decision table with Item, Predictable amount, Predictable date, and the choice of scheduled entry, reminder or manual entry, with reasons: rent (yes, yes, scheduled), a retainer invoice (yes, yes, scheduled with email), a utility bill (no, yes, reminder), a client with variable hours (no, yes, reminder). Template details: customer or vendor, account, class, amount, memo, schedule, automatic or reminder [VERIFY]. Year of recurring income: 12 retainers of 450 is 5,400. Risk: a rent entry left at 1,200 after the rent rises to 1,300 understates costs by 1,200 a year. Monthly check table with Entry, Expected amount, Last created, Matched to bank and Still needed: open the scheduled list, confirm each is valid, compare with the bank statement, and update amounts after price changes. Customer invoices that auto-send only for fixed retainers under contract, with a check on the first and an end date; warn about automation that keeps running after a contract ends. Quarterly clean-up of ended contracts. Finish with questions for my accountant; no accounting or tax opinion is wanted [VERIFY].
