A Bookkeeper’s most important duty is to track and manage financial data. Bookkeepers don’t interpret financial data, which is a responsibility for accountants, so they focus less on analysis and more on creating and maintaining records. A Bookkeeper has many responsibilities, including:

  • Documenting transaction details
  • Putting together financial reports
  • Fact-checking accounting data
  • Notify senior staff of any accounting errors
  • Calculate interest charges
  • Recording financial transactions
  • Tracking payroll data
