Cannabis Bookkeeping

Bookkeeping for a licensed operator is not general bookkeeping with a different logo. The chart of accounts, the coding discipline, and the reconciliation cadence all have to anticipate inventory costing and examination review.

Chart of Accounts and Coding

Accounts are structured so production, retail, and administrative activity separate at entry. Departmental coding applied at the transaction level is what makes cost allocation defensible later.

  • Cannabis-specific chart of accounts with department dimensions
  • Vendor and expense coding rules documented for staff
  • Inventory subledger integrated with the general ledger

Monthly Close Process

A written close checklist with owners and due dates produces statements on a predictable date. Bank, cash, inventory, payroll, and tax liability accounts are reconciled every period.

Cleanup and Catch-Up Work

Operators arriving with several months of unreconciled activity start with a diagnostic. We establish an opening position we can support, then bring the periods current in sequence.

Systems and Integrations

Point-of-sale, seed-to-sale, payroll, and banking data are brought into the ledger through repeatable imports rather than retyped, which removes a large share of routine error.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can books be brought current?
It depends on the number of periods, transaction volume, and record quality. A scoped diagnostic gives a realistic timeline before work begins.
Which accounting platform do you use?
We work with the mainstream platforms and configure them for cannabis inventory and departmental coding. Configuration matters more than the platform.
Do you work with in-house bookkeepers?
Yes. A common arrangement is in-house daily entry with our monthly review, reconciliation, and close.
