Does this replace an accountant?

No. Cash Workspace organizes your records; it does not replace an accountant or give accounting advice. It makes the handoff faster by giving your accountant a complete, labelled set instead of a stream of forwarded files.

Does it give accounting advice?

No. Cash Workspace does not provide accounting, bookkeeping, or tax advice. It keeps your records organized so the people who do give that advice can work from a complete, labelled set.

Which records should I include for my accountant?

Include income records (invoices and payments received), expense records with their receipts attached, and any statements for the period. A short note on anything unusual saves a billed question later.

How do I hand it over without emailing files around?

Keep the packet in one organized set of folders so you share a single, complete reference rather than a stream of forwarded emails, and so nothing is missed or duplicated in the back-and-forth.

accountant & bookkeeper handoff packet

An accountant-ready handoff folder for physical therapists

At handoff time the accountant asks for records that are half in email, half on paper, and the back-and-forth wastes days and often costs more in billed hours. For physical therapists, the fix is a consistent place to keep the records rather than a smarter tool. Cash Workspace gives you one place to record each item, attach its file, and keep it where you can find it. It is free.

The problem

Why physical therapists lose track

At handoff time the accountant asks for records that are half in email, half on paper, and the back-and-forth wastes days and often costs more in billed hours.

Lumping all clinic supplies together, so consumable rehab supplies can't be told apart from one-time equipment purchases
Filing supply invoices without attaching the receipt, then not knowing which order a charge came from
Not tracking CEU-course receipts against license and certification renewal deadlines

The workflow

How physical therapists keep it organized

A simple, repeatable way to accountant handoff records without special software.

1
Collect the records your accountant asks for
Gather the documents an accountant typically wants from physical therapists — Patient financial-responsibility and payment agreements, Superbills and payment receipts issued to patients, and Supply and equipment vendor invoices — into one labelled place.
2
Organise them the way they will be reviewed
Group income records, expense records with receipts, and statements so each set is complete and self-explanatory.
3
Note what is missing or unusual
Flag anything you could not find or that needs a one-line explanation, so questions are answered before they are asked.
4
Share a clean, read-only packet
Hand over one organised folder instead of a stream of forwarded emails, so the review starts from a complete set.

Record structure

What each record holds

The fields that make a accountant handoff record complete and findable.

Record type: Income, expense, statement, or supporting document — how the accountant slices the packet.
Period: The month, quarter, or year the record belongs to.
Amount: The figure on the record, matching its attachment.
Attachment: The underlying invoice, receipt, or statement kept with the entry.
Note: A short explanation for anything unusual, so it does not become a billed question.
Patient reference / code: A non-identifying code so receipts group by file without storing personal details.
Visit date: The visit a superbill or payment receipt covers, for grouping by date.
CEU hours: Continuing-education hours a course counts toward license or certification renewal.
Equipment / asset: Which clinic asset a repair or maintenance cost belongs to, for tracking per unit.

Example setup

An example structure

Invoices sent and payments received for the period.

Expenses

Each expense — Rehab supplies & modalities, Treatment equipment & repair, and Clinic rent & occupancy — with its receipt attached.

Statements

Bank and card statements for the period.

Notes

A one-line explanation for anything unusual, so it never becomes a billed question.

Common mistakes

Common mistakes to avoid

Lumping all clinic supplies together, so consumable rehab supplies can't be told apart from one-time equipment purchases
Filing supply invoices without attaching the receipt, then not knowing which order a charge came from
Not tracking CEU-course receipts against license and certification renewal deadlines
Mixing patient copay receipts with insurance-billing statements, so outstanding balances aren't clear
Keeping equipment warranty and purchase records apart from the repair expenses that reference them
Handing over a stream of forwarded emails instead of one organized set.

How it helps

How Cash Workspace helps

Record it, don’t re-key it

Enter each item once — date, vendor, amount, category — and attach the file to that record. No bank sync, no receipt-reading; the record is deliberate and yours.

One consistent structure

The same categories and folders every month, so physical therapists always know where a record goes and where to find it later.

One clean packet

Hand over a single organized set — income, expenses with receipts, statements, notes — instead of forwarded emails, so the review starts complete.

This organizes, it does not advise

Cash Workspace organizes the records you hand to an accountant or bookkeeper; it is not accounting software and does not provide accounting advice. Your accountant remains the source of professional guidance — a clean, complete packet just means fewer billed hours spent chasing documents.
