Waarom zou je deze gids vertrouwen?
I ran two full closes in Easy Month End across a six-month period.
Every screen below is one I actually clicked through myself.

The month end close process is the boekhouding work done after each period ends.
It exists to produce accurate financial statements on a predictable date.
High-performing finance teams close in about five days.
Lower quartile teams take ten days or more.
The gap is rarely skill — it is coordination.
Many finance teams still run the whole thing from one shared spreadsheet.
Accurate financial rapportage is what tells you the company’s financial health.
Clean financial records are also what let owners make informed decisions.
This walkthrough of how to use Easy Month End shows where that coordination happens.
Eenvoudige maandafsluitingshandleiding
This tutorial walks through every feature in order, from first login to a locked boekhouding periode.

Gemakkelijke maandafsluiting
Stop rebuilding the same spreadsheet every month. Easy Month End gives finance teams one checklist, live status, and audit-ready documentation for the whole close process. Plans start at $45/mo.
Aan de slag met Easy Month End
Complete this one-time setup before touching any feature.
Het duurt ongeveer drie minuten.
Here is what the first run looked like for me:

Laten we nu elke stap eens doornemen.
Stap 1: Maak uw account aan
Go to the Easy Month End website and click Start Free Trial.
Voer uw werk-e-mailadres in en maak een wachtwoord aan.
✓ Controlepunt: Controleer uw inbox voor een bevestigingsmail.
Stap 2: Koppel uw boekhoudsoftware
Easy Month End runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install.
Link QuickBooks, Xero, or Verstandig from the Integrations screen.
This pulls financial data across automatically and cuts manual entry.
Financial data collection then stays up to date from day one.
✓ Controlepunt: Your bank accounts appear in the reconciliation list.
Step 3: Set Your Close Calendar
Choose your target close day and working-day rules.
Every deadline in the app then shifts with your calendar.
✅ Klaar: Je bent klaar om een van de onderstaande functies te gebruiken.
How to Use Easy Month End Auditor Control & Tracker
Controle en tracering door de auditor keeps every internal control visible so nothing in the close process is missed.
Step 1: Open the Controls Dashboard
Click Controls in the left sidebar after logging in.
You will see every control mapped to the month end close process.
Step 2: Assign an Owner and Due Date
Pick a control, choose an owner, then set a deadline.
Spreading owners across the accounting department stops one person carrying all the tasks.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Each control shows a named owner and a due date.
Step 3: Track Sign-Off Status
Watch each control move from open to reviewed automatically.
✅ Resultaat: Every control now has clear ownership and an audit trail.
💡 Pro-tip: Assign controls a week before month end so team members can plan around them.
How to Use Easy Month End Evidence for Control Tester
Bewijs voor controletesten stores proof against each control instead of scattering it across inboxes.
Step 1: Select the Control to Test
Open any control and click the Evidence tab.
Step 2: Upload Your Supporting Documentation
Drag in bank statements, vendor invoices, and expense reports.
Screenshots of boekhoudsoftware reports work here too.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: The evidence list shows your files with the right month attached.
Step 3: Tag the Accounting Period
Label each file with the correct period before saving.
Mis-tagged files are the top cause of accounting errors during audits.
✅ Resultaat: Auditors can self-serve the proof they need without emailing you.
💡 Pro-tip: Upload evidence the day you do the work, not during the final review.
How to Use Easy Month End Finance Task Manager
Financieel taakbeheer turns a scattered to-do list into a scheduled plan for finance teams.
Step 1: Create Your Task List
Add every recurring job, from bank reconciliation to revenue recognition.
Include a row for reviewing unusual financial transactions.
Step 2: Set Owners and Deadlines
Give each task a person and a date.
Dependencies stop a reviewer starting before the preparer finishes.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Every task has an owner, a due date, and a status.
Step 3: Track Completion Daily
Check the list each morning during close week.
Daily record-keeping prevents the end-of-month workload spike.
✅ Resultaat: Your accounting team knows exactly what to do and when.
💡 Pro-tip: Add tax filings and inventory count tasks so they never get forgotten.
Hoe gebruik je Easy Month End Review Reconciliations?
Controleer de afstemmingen gives reviewers a single queue instead of a folder of emailed spreadsheets.
Step 1: Open the Reconciliation Queue
Filter the queue to items waiting on your approval.
Step 2: Compare Against Bank Statements
Check cash balances against bank and credit accounts line by line.
Flag anything that does not tie to customer payments or vendor invoices.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Approved items disappear from the queue and lock.
Stap 3: Goedkeuren of terugsturen
Approve clean work or return it with a comment.
The comment stays attached, so the fix is documented.
✅ Resultaat: You reconcile accounts with a reviewable record of every decision.
💡 Pro-tip: Review bank accounts first — they surface the most issues vroeg.
Hoe gebruik je de eenvoudige checklist voor minder stress aan het einde van de maand?
Checklist voor minder stress is a ready-made month end close checklist you adapt once and reuse.
Step 1: Load the Checklist Template
Pick a template from the library on the Checklists screen.
Step 2: Customise for Your Stack
Rename steps to match your own accounting software.
Add rows for prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, and fixed asset activity.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Next month’s checklist appears with all the tasks pre-filled.
Step 3: Roll It Forward
Click Roll Forward to copy the list into next month.
Completed items reset while owners and deadlines stay.
✅ Resultaat: The monthly closing process runs the same way every single time.
💡 Pro-tip: Add a soft-close row at mid-month to catch issues early.
How to Use Easy Month End Team Manager
Teammanagement shows who is overloaded before missed deadlines become a pattern.
Stap 1: Voeg je teamleden toe
Invite colleagues by email and set their permission level.
Reviewers get approval rights; preparers do not.
Step 2: Check Workload Balance
Open the People view to see task counts per person.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Each person shows a realistic task count for close week.
Step 3: Reassign During Absences
Bulk-move tasks to another owner in two clicks.
Nothing stalls when someone is on leave.
✅ Resultaat: Work is spread evenly across finance and accounting teams.
💡 Pro-tip: Give your auditor a read-only login instead of exporting files by email.
Hoe gebruik je Easy Month End Real-Time Status?
Realtime status replaces the daily status ontmoeting with a dashboard anyone can open.
Stap 1: Open het statusdashboard
The home screen shows completion percentage for the current close.
Step 2: Filter by Owner or Area
Narrow the view to accounts payable, accounts receivable, or cash.
Red items are overdue; amber items are due today.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: The dashboard shows a live percentage and a list of blockers.
Step 3: Share the View
Send your controller a live link instead of a spreadsheet.
Real-time visibility improves collaboration during the month end close.
✅ Resultaat: Leadership can see progress without interrupting your accounting team.
💡 Pro-tip: Check the dashboard at 4pm daily — it exposes tomorrow’s bottleneck tonight.
Hoe u eenvoudig maandafsluitingsdocumentatie kunt gebruiken
Auditklare documentatie centralises audit files so the auditor’s follow-up list gets much shorter.
Step 1: Set Your Folder Structure
Create folders by period, then by account.
Step 2: Attach Files to Each Task
Link journal entries, invoices, and statements to the task that used them.
Every file inherits the period stamp automatically.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: The export includes every attachment for the month you selected.
Step 3: Export the Audit Pack
Click Export to produce a single zipped pack.
Send it once instead of answering twenty separate requests.
✅ Resultaat: Your audit pack is built as you work, not rebuilt in a panic.
💡 Pro-tip: Name files with the account number first so sorting matches the general ledger.
Hoe gebruik je Easy Month End Balance Sheet Reconciliations?
Balansafstemmingen checks that each balance sheet line is backed by evidence, not assumption.
Step 1: Import Your General Ledger Balances
Upload a trial balance export from your accounting software.
A CSV from QuickBooks or Xero works fine.
Step 2: Match Each Account
Work down the list and attach proof for each balance.
Cash ties to bank statements; fixed assets tie to the asset register.
Zo ziet het eruit:

✓ Controlepunt: Unreconciled accounts show a difference figure in red.
Step 3: Sign Off the Balance Sheet
Mark reconciled accounts complete and lock them.
No new financial activity can then land in the previous month.
✅ Resultaat: Your balance sheet reflects the true financial position of the bedrijf.
💡 Pro-tip: Reconcile the accounts with the most credit card transactions first.

Veelgemaakte fouten aan het einde van de maand die je beter kunt vermijden
Mistake #1: Leaving everything until the last three days
❌ Fout: Waiting until the previous month ends before you collect data or reconcile anything.
✅ Rechts: Reconcile bank and credit accounts weekly so month end is a review, not a rescue.
Mistake #2: Tracking the close in a shared spreadsheet
❌ Fout: Emailing a spreadsheet around, where versions conflict and missed deadlines go unnoticed.
✅ Rechts: Keep one live checklist so every owner sees the same status.
Mistake #3: Filing evidence after the fact
❌ Fout: Hunting for supporting documentation weeks later, when nobody remembers the detail.
✅ Rechts: Attach the file at the moment you do the work, tagged to the correct period.
Eenvoudige probleemoplossing aan het einde van de maand
Problem: Imported balances do not match the ledger
Oorzaak: The trial balance was exported before the last journal entries posted.
Repareren: Re-export from your accounting software, then re-import and refresh the reconciliation.
Problem: A task shows complete but has no evidence
Oorzaak: The owner ticked the box without uploading supporting documentation.
Repareren: Turn on required attachments in Settings so tasks cannot close empty.
Problem: Deadlines land on weekends
Oorzaak: The close calendar is set to calendar days rather than working days.
Repareren: Switch to working days in Settings, then roll the checklist forward again.
📌 Opmerking: If none of these fix your issue, contact Easy Month End support.

Veelgestelde vragen
Hoe voer je een maandafsluiting uit in de boekhouding?
Collect all the data, reconcile accounts, post journal entries for accruals and depreciation, then prepare financial statements. Finish with a final review and lock the accounting period.
Wat is de gemakkelijkste manier om bankafstemming uit te voeren?
Import your bank statements, auto-match cleared items, then investigate only the exceptions. Reviewing weekly instead of monthly keeps the list short and helps you catch mistakes early.

Accounting errors carry into the next period, tax filings get delayed, and cash flow reporting becomes unreliable. Auditors then ask more questions, which costs your accounting team real time.

Match vendor invoices to receipts, accrue anything received but unbilled, then reconcile accounts payable to the general ledger. Cut off new entries once the subledger agrees.
