Qualify the incoming source
Record payer, amount, bank or processor message, client and matter claims and agreement reference.
Workflow blueprint
Legal accounting software must keep operating money and client-property evidence visibly apart
A finance boundary map, not ownership determination, trust eligibility, earned-fee decision, tax advice or reconciliation certification.
Trace receipts to their sources, separate trust and operating proposals, retain transfer authority questions and route reconciliation exceptions.
TL;DR — Trace receipts to their sources, separate trust and operating proposals, retain transfer authority questions and route reconciliation exceptions.
Separate accounting domains
Route client-property, billing and operating questions to distinct ledgers and accountable reviewers.
Control earned-fee and disbursement handoffs
Preserve fee review, transfer instruction, expense evidence, disbursement source and bank response.
Reconcile without hiding uncertainty
Connect matter statement, bank line, ledger proposal, difference, journal review and close response.
Page-specific decision aid
A client, matter, incoming source, operating record, client-property question, earned-fee review, disbursement, reconciliation exception and finance-close map
The map follows an advance payment, operating expense, completed work and later invoice. The receipt stays unapplied until ownership and matter questions are answered, while trust, billing and operating proposals travel through separate review lanes.
- ✓Money received is not automatically earned.
- ✓A matter reference is not ownership proof.
- ✓A zero difference is not compliance certification.
