Records for your year-end accounts

A practical checklist of the information commonly needed to prepare annual accounts.

Prepared by DJB Accounting • 11 November 2026

Begin with your bookkeeping

If your records are in accounting software, tell us which system you use and whether it is up to date. We can agree access and ask for the supporting records that fill the gaps.

A useful starting checklist

  • Business bank statements covering the accounting period and the year-end balance.
  • Sales and purchase records, including invoices still unpaid at the year end.
  • Payroll reports, pension information and tax balances.
  • Details of stock, equipment purchases and disposals.
  • Loan, lease and hire purchase statements and agreements.
  • Director’s loan transactions and personal payments through the business.
  • The previous approved accounts and details of changes in the business.

Tell us about unusual transactions

Large one-off payments, grants, connected party transactions, property changes and new financing may need separate supporting documents. Tell us about them early so we can request the right evidence.
