Monthly business snapshot

# Pinstripe Ledger: Your Month in Numbers, Inside Your Client Portal

Pinstripe Ledger is the monthly snapshot we publish for bookkeeping clients: revenue, expenses, profit, and cash on one page, compared with last month, with a plain-English note from us. It is a summary of your books, not a tax filing.

- **What you get:** Revenue, expenses, profit, cash, money owed to you, and bills you owe
- **When:** Each month, after Pinstripe Close finishes
- **Where:** Client portal on the web and in the iPhone and iPad app
- **Cost:** Included with monthly bookkeeping

## What Is in Your Monthly Snapshot?

### The four numbers that matter

Revenue, expenses, profit, and cash, each compared with the month before, so a rising cost or a falling balance is obvious at a glance.

### A six-month trend

A simple chart of revenue over the last six months shows direction, not just one month in isolation.

### Money in and out

What customers still owe you and what bills you owe, listed beside the headline numbers.

### A note from your bookkeeper

One or two sentences on what changed and what to watch, such as an invoice that is more than 45 days old.

### Built for your phone

Opens as a sheet in the iPhone and iPad app and as a card layout on the web, with large touch targets and no pinching.

### Works with your records

We enter figures from your books or import the spreadsheet your accounting tool exports, whatever its column names. Anything we do not have shows as Not provided, never as zero.

## How Do You See Your Snapshot?

Once your month is closed, the snapshot is waiting in your portal and you get a notification.

## Why We Built Pinstripe Ledger

Most small business owners only look at their books when something goes wrong. A short snapshot every month, in the same place as your messages and files, turns bookkeeping into something you can actually use to make decisions.

The snapshot is one of the last steps of [Pinstripe Close](https://pinstripeservices.com/pinstripe-close), our month-end process, which you can follow step by step in the portal. It sits beside [Pinstripe Sync](https://pinstripeservices.com/pinstripe-sync) for documents and [Pinstripe Talk](https://pinstripeservices.com/pinstripe-talk) for video calls.

Pinstripe Ledger summarizes your books for your own use. It is not tax advice and it is not a tax return. See our [bookkeeping services](https://pinstripeservices.com/services/bookkeeping) for what we do each month.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What is Pinstripe Ledger?

Pinstripe Ledger is the monthly business snapshot in the Pinstripe client portal. It shows revenue, expenses, profit, and cash for the month, compares them with the previous month, and includes a short note from your Pinstripe bookkeeper.

### Who gets a Pinstripe Ledger snapshot?

Clients on Pinstripe monthly bookkeeping. The snapshot is included, and there is no separate request or fee.

### When is my snapshot published?

After your month-end close is finished. You can watch progress in Pinstripe Close, and the portal shows the date we expect to deliver.

### Is this a tax filing or tax advice?

No. Pinstripe does not file taxes. The snapshot summarizes your books so you can see how the business is doing.

### What if a number is missing?

It shows as Not provided. We never show a zero or a trend we cannot support. Profit appears only when both revenue and expenses are available.

### Can I see it on my phone?

Yes. It works in the Pinstripe iPhone and iPad app and in any browser.
