Banking

Your banking records form an essential part of your overall business records as they show money coming in and going out of your business. You should record all the amounts you have actually received and paid. You should also regularly reconcile your records so you understand exactly what money goes through your account and why. 

If applicable to your business, you should bank all your cash sales income into your business account when you receive it, to ensure accurate record keeping and GST reporting.
