# Document Requests

Document requests are essential for closing accounts at month-end, such as bank and credit card accounts, payroll, reconciling finances, and making loan adjustments. These documents are needed for accurately recording transactions like payroll or loan-related activities through specific journal entries.

For example, a loan statement request involves creating a document request for that statement. For bank and credit cards, these documents help reconcile balances and make the required journal entries for reconciliation purposes.

Your account manager may request these documents monthly to ensure accuracy. Typical documents requested include:

- Bank statements and credit card statements
- Loan statements
- Payroll reports

**Typical Documents Requested:**

         ● Bank Statements

         ● Invoices and Receipts

         ● Payroll Information

         ● Loan and Credit Card Statements

         ● Tax Documents (e.g. W-9 forms)

         ● Daily/Monthly Revenue Reports

         ● Inventory Records
