- Prepare AP‑related journal entries, including accruals for uninvoiced receipts and expense cut‑off
- Reconcile accounts payable subledger to the general ledger monthly; identify, research, and resolve reconciling items
- Assist with AP aging reviews and ensure liabilities are stated accurately at period end
- Support internal and external audit requests by preparing schedules, documentation, and reconciliations
Cross‑Functional Collaboration
