The Month-End Close Checklist
Most close checklists are generic task dumps. This one is a real close calendar, sequenced the way an actual controller runs a 4-day close - pre-close prep, journal entries & reconciliations, review & validation, and sign-off & reporting - with task owners built in so nothing falls through the cracks.Use it as-is, or adjust the day labels to match your own close cycle (5-day, 10-day, whatever fits) without changing the task order or logic.What's inside: A visual close-cycle timeline you can adapt to any cycle length 21 close tasks organized into 4 phases, each with a suggested owner (Controller, Staff Accountant, AP Lead, Payroll, Cost Accountant) A "make it stick" note on the one step most teams skip - and the one that actually shortens the cycle over time One page, print-ready, built to pin up next to your desk.
