Runs the two prep steps of a close in sequence, reconcile the accounts, then clean up the transactions, sharing one exceptions register between them. It's a thin sequencing layer only: the real work happens in Reconcile and Categorize, which also run standalone.
The full working disciplines for this skill live in the two skills it runs: Reconcile and Categorize.
| Detail | Example |
|---|---|
| GL detail export | export from any system |
| Statements or subledgers for reconcile | July bank statement, AR aging |
| Prior-period GL when available | June GL export |
Any general ledger, accounting system, or spreadsheet
Both workers report their completion criteria met: every account proven or excepted, every transaction categorized or flagged. The two skills' open questions arrive as one combined checkpoint instead of two. A blocked worker stops prep, with its exceptions routed by name to the phase that owns them and a plain statement of where things stopped.
