November 2026 Release

The latest simulated clients. Each is a distinct business with its own bookkeeping data. Choose the exact client you want to practice.

Saltmeadow Family Law

She’s opened her own practice above a bank on the courthouse square, funded it from her savings, and already holds two clients’ money in trust. Hourly work bills monthly, estate packages bill when the documents are signed, and consultations are paid by card at the desk. The practice is taking shape. Now you’re responsible for its first quarter of books. Keep retainers separate from revenue until the fees are earned, apply trust transfers against the invoices they settle, and reconcile the trust account to both the bank and each client’s balance. Sort out her startup funding, card fees, and one personal errand that slipped into the records. Build experience getting a new practice’s operating and trust books right from the start.

November 2026

Hollowell and Pike Law Office

Two attorneys across from the courthouse handle litigation, residential closings, and three client matters funded in advance. Their monthly bookkeeper raised invoices without ever seeing a bank or trust statement, billed one closing twice, and left in August. Nothing has ever been reconciled. You’re taking over the books they left behind. Establish the opening balances, then work through a quarter of trust activity client by client, including court costs and an unused estate balance that must be returned. Correct the duplicate invoice, recover a payment made twice, and fix a service item posting to the wrong income account. Bring both operating accounts through their first reconciliation and practice turning incomplete bookkeeping into records you can support.

November 2026

Thorne Ashby and Grange PC

This firm looks more profitable than it is. A loan used to fit out the office is sitting in revenue, nine earned-fee drawdowns were recorded without reducing trust, and the account holding three clients’ money is missing from the books entirely. Neither shareholder has a reconciled set of accounts to rely on. Your assignment starts with the statements and supporting records. Reconstruct trust activity one client at a time, correct the drawdowns, and account for client costs and a closed matter’s refund. Pull the loan out of income, split its payments using the lender’s statement, and separate shareholder salary from distributions. Reconcile four accounts and build experience tracing errors across trust, cash, debt, and income until the corrected books agree with the evidence.

November 2026

Full Practice Set

A new attorney’s first trust account. A two-attorney office whose bookkeeper never saw a bank statement. A corporation whose loan appears as income and whose trust account is missing from the books. Take on Saltmeadow Family Law, Hollowell and Pike Law Office, and Thorne Ashby and Grange PC as three separate engagements. Build the first quarter, clean up inherited billing and payments, then reconstruct omitted trust activity. Work with each client’s own records, trust worksheets, and Practice Review. Practice separating client money from earned fees at three levels of bookkeeping complexity.

Tidemark Pilates and Barre

The reformers are in, the studio beside the rail station is open, and her savings paid for the fit-out. Class members tap their cards at the desk, two employers buy lunchtime class blocks, and two instructors send invoices twice a month. Tidemark’s first quarter brings several ways to earn money and several ways to misread a bank deposit. Build the books from the start. Separate owner funding from class income, account for card fees and a client refund, and identify two personal errands on the business debit card. Reconcile the quarter with two checks still outstanding. Practice explaining how a studio’s sales become cash without treating every deposit as revenue.

November 2026

Keelson Occupational Health

Freight drivers, factory employees, county road crews, and an agricultural cooperative all use Keelson’s services. Its bookkeeper raised their invoices but never applied a payment or reconciled an account. Before leaving in August, they also billed an injury case twice and sent driver-examination income to the physicals line. You inherit more than unpaid-looking invoices. Rebuild the opening position, correct the billing and item errors, and trace a combined transfer and a part payment to the accounts they belong to. Recover a payment made twice and reconcile both accounts for the first time. Work through the difference between services billed, money collected, and balances still owed.

November 2026

Kittiwake Pediatric Therapy Partners

Kittiwake’s partners run a clinic team under health plans and a schools team under district and county contracts. The sensory gym was financed with a bank loan last October, but the books called that borrowing program income. Nothing has been reconciled. The practice’s records need the same care as its separate service lines. Establish the loan against prior-period equity, correct evaluations posting to the wrong income account, and place an annual assessment license in the right period. Split loan installments from the lender’s statement, apply combined and partial receipts, and reconcile three accounts. Practice correcting an inherited position without confusing financing with the work the practice earns its living doing.

November 2026

Full Practice Set

Tidemark’s owner paid for her reformers from savings. Keelson’s bookkeeper left without applying a single payment. Kittiwake’s sensory-gym loan was recorded as program income. Three health and wellness practices are waiting for you, each with a different reason its bank balance cannot tell the whole story. Build Tidemark Pilates and Barre’s first quarter, clean up Keelson Occupational Health’s invoices and receipts, then separate Kittiwake Pediatric Therapy Partners’ borrowing from its earnings. Work through card fees, duplicate payments, and lender statements in three independent clients. Use each Practice Review to check the decisions behind your balances.

Spoke and Saddle Cycle Works

A mechanic has opened Spoke and Saddle two blocks from the river trail. Savings funded the shop, then another owner deposit covered a stock order that ran larger than expected. Riders pay at the counter by card, cash, and check; a school district and a riding club receive fleet-service invoices. You’re building the books behind those first sales. Record resale stock as cost of goods and keep both owner deposits out of revenue. Follow counter payments and fleet invoices through the records, then reconcile checking with a check still outstanding. Get practice distinguishing what the shop sold from the money its owner put in to get it running.

November 2026

Hearthstone Uniform Supply

Hearthstone outfits schoolchildren, hospital staff, and a fire protection district. Its bookkeeper worked from order sheets without ever seeing a statement. A scrub-program month was billed twice, alterations post as school-uniform income, and a vendor received a duplicate payment. The invoices exist; a reconciled set of books does not. Take over the opening position, correct the duplicate billing and misdirected item, and investigate the vendor overpayment. Apply customer receipts that don’t match any single invoice and reconcile both accounts for the first time. Practice following a payment across several invoices while keeping each customer’s balance explainable.

November 2026

Thresher Creek Farm and Ranch Supply

Two stores, standing delivery accounts, a growers’ cooperative, and a cattle company keep Thresher Creek trading. A delivery truck and forklift added capacity, but the loan that bought them was recorded as feed income. The bank money arrived; the books told the wrong story about why. Remove the borrowing from revenue, correct the delivery-account item, and place the annual store-software license in the right period. Split loan installments, apply combined receipts, and reconcile operating cash, reserves, and a card. Work through the distinction between financing a supply business and earning money from its customers.

November 2026

Full Practice Set

Spoke and Saddle’s first stock order needed a second injection of the owner’s savings. Hearthstone’s bookkeeper billed a scrub program twice without ever seeing a statement. Thresher Creek’s truck and forklift loan appears as feed income. These three retailers need more than sales entered and deposits matched. Start Spoke and Saddle Cycle Works’ books, untangle Hearthstone Uniform Supply’s receipts and duplicate payment, then correct Thresher Creek Farm and Ranch Supply’s loan and delivery item. Reconcile each client’s accounts against its own records. Practice following the money from counter sales and standing delivery accounts through to supported results.

Mossgrove Plant Company

A leased glasshouse is now home to Mossgrove’s online houseplant and seed business. The sales platform deducts its fee before paying out, while a florist collective and a plant cafe buy wholesale cases on account. A damaged order has been refunded, and a market-stall check is still outstanding. These first-quarter records are yours to work through. Record platform sales at their gross amounts, account for the fee and refund, and distinguish nursery stock from supplies. Follow wholesale invoices separately from online payouts and reconcile checking to the statement. Practice finding the sales behind a net deposit instead of recording only the cash that reached the bank.

November 2026

Tinwhistle Promotional Goods

Tinwhistle embroiders and prints for a credit union, a sports league, the chamber of commerce, and customers with standing reorders. Every sale goes on account. An event kit was invoiced twice, reorder packs post as apparel income, and a monthly cost was paid twice. No account has ever been reconciled. Establish the opening position, correct the duplicate invoice and item mapping, and investigate the repeated payment. Apply customer receipts and reconcile both accounts. Put your cleanup skills to work on a business where an order, an invoice, and a deposit each tell a different part of the transaction.

November 2026

Cairnmoor Outdoor Supply Group

Cairnmoor runs two outdoor-gear brands from one warehouse, supplying outfitters, guides, and corporate wellness programs. The racking and packing line were financed, but the loan was recorded as outfitter income. Your assignment is to untangle that inherited position while keeping the quarter’s customer activity moving through the books. Open the loan against prior-period equity, correct the resupply-pack item, and place the annual warehouse-software license in the right period. Use the lender’s statement to split installments, apply combined and partial receipts, and reconcile three accounts. Practice rebuilding the relationship between the warehouse’s financing, sales, and cash.

November 2026

Full Practice Set

Mossgrove sells houseplants from a leased glasshouse, with platform fees taken before the money arrives. Tinwhistle billed an event kit twice. Cairnmoor’s warehouse racking and packing-line loan was counted as outfitter income. Behind these online storefronts are three very different sets of books. Record Mossgrove Plant Company’s gross sales and damaged-order refund, clean up Tinwhistle Promotional Goods’ invoices and receipts, then rebuild the loan position at Cairnmoor Outdoor Supply Group. Split installments, place the annual warehouse license, and reconcile each client’s accounts. Check your work with three separate Practice Reviews.

Ovenbird Bakehouse

The oven and mixers came out of her savings. Now Ovenbird’s counter is open by the ferry landing, with customers paying for coffee and baked goods while a cafe and a roaster buy pastry trays on account. Three personal errands have also found their way onto the business debit card. You’re taking on the bakehouse’s first quarter. Record ingredients as cost of goods, separate the owner’s draws from business spending, and break a combined deposit back into its customer payments. Reconcile checking with two checks still outstanding. Build experience following counter sales, credit customers, and owner activity through one new business’s books.

November 2026

Bentgrass Contract Kitchen

Bentgrass feeds a school district, a senior-services agency, a retirement community, and a hospital auxiliary. Its monthly bookkeeper never applied a payment or reconciled an account. A senior-meal contract month was billed twice, catered events post as school lunches, and a monthly cost was paid twice. You’re inheriting the records behind those meals. Settle the opening position, correct the billing and item errors, and investigate the duplicate payment. Apply the receipts and bring both accounts through their first reconciliation. Practice turning contract invoices and customer payments into balances you can follow back to the kitchen’s records.

November 2026

Greywacke Brewing Company

Greywacke’s partners sell kegs and cases through a distributor, a tavern group, and taproom partners, and rent their hall for private events. A second brewhouse and canning line were financed with a loan that appears in keg income. The expansion is real. The revenue it seems to have generated is not. Correct the borrowing and taproom-partner item, place the annual brewing-software license, and split the loan installments. Apply combined receipts and reconcile operating cash, reserves, and a card. Practice separating expansion financing from trading income across a brewery with several customer relationships.

November 2026

Full Practice Set

Ovenbird’s owner bought her oven and mixers with savings before opening by the ferry. Bentgrass’s bookkeeper never applied a payment. Greywacke’s second brewhouse and canning line were financed, but the borrowing became keg income in the books. Three food businesses, three distinct assignments. Build Ovenbird Bakehouse’s first quarter, separate personal errands from business costs, and break a combined deposit into its parts. Take over Bentgrass Contract Kitchen’s unreconciled accounts, then correct Greywacke Brewing Company’s loan and taproom item. Follow counter sales, meal contracts, and brewery receipts through to reconciled accounts and compare each engagement with its Practice Review.

Rainshadow Pressure Washing

His own pickup pulls the trailer, and his savings bought the pump and tanks. Rainshadow is new, but the payment patterns already vary: homeowners tap a card on his phone reader, while a homeowners’ association and a plaza receive monthly invoices. Some business costs were paid on his personal card. You’re building the first quarter from those records. Place the quarterly insurance premium, record the personally paid business costs as owner contributions, and follow customer activity into checking. Reconcile the account with two checks still outstanding. Practice accounting for a business whose owner’s money and equipment got it started before its customer income could.

November 2026

Nettle Creek Pest Control

Nettle Creek has monthly pest-control contracts with property managers, an apartment owner, restaurants, and a school district, plus termite jobs quoted individually. A restaurant-program month was invoiced twice, termite work posts as contract income, and a monthly cost was paid twice. Nothing has been reconciled, and you’re taking over. Establish the opening position, correct the invoice and item errors, and investigate the duplicate payment. Apply combined and partial customer receipts, then reconcile both accounts. Work through the bookkeeping distinction between recurring contracts and individual jobs while proving what each customer still owes.

November 2026

Blackwater Site Services Group

Blackwater’s partners sweep and stripe parking lots under contract and place restrooms and fencing on construction sites. A street sweeper and loader were financed with a loan recorded as contract income. Their service business has acquired equipment, but the books make the borrowing look like work already earned. Open the loan against prior-period equity, correct the project item, and place annual fleet permits paid in one sum. Split installments, apply combined receipts, and reconcile three accounts. Practice correcting the starting position and the quarter’s activity together, with the loan and customer receipts kept distinct.

November 2026

Full Practice Set

Rainshadow starts with a trailer behind the owner’s pickup. Nettle Creek has recurring pest-control contracts and a restaurant program billed twice. Blackwater financed a sweeper and loader, then recorded the loan as contract income. Each service business gives you a different set of records to investigate. Build Rainshadow Pressure Washing’s books, including business costs paid on the owner’s personal card. Correct Nettle Creek Pest Control’s duplicate billing and wrongly mapped termite work, then untangle Blackwater Site Services Group’s borrowing, installments, and fleet permits. Reconcile the accounts for three separate clients and use their Practice Reviews to investigate differences.

Fieldnote Grant Writing

A development officer has taken a shared desk and started a grant-writing practice. Savings paid for the laptop and research database. Foundations, a land trust, an arts council, and a family resource center receive invoices; workshop attendees pay by card online. You’re building the records behind this move into independent work. Follow proposal and support invoices alongside workshop payments. Identify a round transfer to savings without calling it income, and reconcile checking with a check still outstanding. Practice keeping a solo professional’s customer earnings separate from money simply moving between accounts.

November 2026

Lyrebird Language Services

Lyrebird places interpreters at a medical center, the courts, and a law firm, and staffs depositions for smaller legal accounts. Everything is billed on account. A translation project was invoiced twice, deposition work posts as interpreting income, and a monthly cost was paid twice. The agency’s first reconciliation is waiting for you. Settle the opening position, correct the duplicated invoice and misdirected item, and investigate the repeated payment. Apply receipts that match no single invoice and reconcile both accounts. Practice tracing several services and customer balances through deposits that don’t explain themselves.

November 2026

Hogback Engineering Partners

Hogback’s partners run structural engineering and building inspections from the same office. Testing equipment and a drone fleet were financed with a loan that the books called project income. Before you can rely on the firm’s results, that borrowing and the customer activity need to be separated. Remove the loan from revenue, correct the condition-assessment item, and place the annual design-software license. Split installments from the lender’s statement, apply combined and partial receipts, and reconcile three accounts. Work through the evidence behind income, debt, and cash in a practice with two lines of work.

Fieldnote’s owner starts writing grants at a shared desk, funded by savings. Lyrebird’s interpreters work in medical and legal settings while its books contain a duplicate translation invoice. Hogback’s testing equipment and drone fleet were financed with a loan called project income. The professional work is getting done. Now the books need your attention. Build Fieldnote Grant Writing’s first quarter, clean up Lyrebird Language Services’ receipts and service mapping, then correct Hogback Engineering Partners’ loan and annual software license.

Splitrail Fence and Deck

A rented storage bay, an auger, saws bought from savings, and a carpenter ready to work for himself: that’s how this fence-and-deck business begins. Homeowners pay by card when jobs finish; a homebuilder and a homeowners’ association receive subdivision-fence invoices. Two card purchases have no receipts. You’re responsible for the first quarter’s books. Record lumber as cost of goods, use the payee information to place the purchases with missing receipts, and follow the customer payments. Reconcile checking with a dump-fee check still outstanding. Practice making supported bookkeeping decisions when a new owner’s paperwork is less complete than the work on site.

November 2026

Clayhill Drywall and Insulation

Two homebuilders, a residential management company, and a school district buy this contractor’s drywall and insulation work on account. The monthly bookkeeper never applied a payment. One insulation installation was billed twice, repair calls post as drywall packages, and a monthly cost was paid twice. You’re stepping into the cleanup. Establish the opening balances, correct the duplicate invoice and service item, and investigate the repeated payment. Apply combined and partial receipts, then reconcile both accounts for the first time. Practice connecting contract work to customer balances without relying on invoice totals alone.

November 2026

Terrapin Sitework Contractors

Terrapin’s partners run excavation and concrete divisions from a gravel-pit yard. A loan bought an excavator and concrete pump, but the books recorded the proceeds as excavation income. The equipment expanded what the business can do. Your assignment is to correct what its records say it earned. Open the loan against prior-period equity, correct the equipment-day item, and place annual fleet permits and bonding paid in one sum. Split installments, apply combined receipts, and reconcile operating cash, reserves, and a card. Build experience untangling financing and period costs across two contracting divisions.

Throttle Lane Motorcycle Service

After working at a dealership, he’s opened a motorcycle service shop on the highway. His savings paid for the lift and tire machine. Riders pay at the counter, while a rental fleet and the sheriff’s office receive service invoices. A canceled tire order has been refunded. Now you’re taking responsibility for the shop’s first quarter. Record parts as cost of goods, account for the refund without treating it as a business cost, and follow counter payments alongside fleet accounts. Reconcile checking with two checks still outstanding. Practice building the books behind a new shop where parts, services, and customer payments move together.

November 2026

Crosscut Fleet Upfitters

Crosscut fits racks, shelving, and lighting into vehicles for a power cooperative, a city fleet, and a plumbing company. Its drive-on lift was financed with a loan recorded as upfit income.

Establish the loan, split installments using the lender’s statement, and apply combined and partial customer receipts. Correct the invoice and warranty item, then reconcile both accounts. Practice cleaning up borrowing and customer billing in the same engagement, with the records behind each correction.

November 2026

Grindstone Truck Service Group

Grindstone repairs heavy trucks under fleet agreements and handles towing and recovery under a highway-patrol contract. Its partners financed a heavy wrecker and a second bay, but the loan appears as repair income. The firm has two divisions, new equipment, and reported earnings that need correcting. Remove the borrowing from revenue, correct the towing item, and place the annual shop-software license. Split installments, apply combined receipts, and reconcile three accounts. Practice separating what the business borrowed from what its repair and recovery work actually earned.

November 2026

Throttle Lane’s owner leaves the dealership to open his own motorcycle shop. Crosscut’s drive-on lift loan was recorded as upfit income.

From riders at the counter to fleet contracts, these shops give you three different bookkeeping engagements. Build Throttle Lane Motorcycle Service’s first quarter and handle a canceled tire-order refund.

Plover Street Leasing Services

From a shared desk near the university, a leasing agent has started placing tenants for landlords. Savings funded the lockboxes and screening software.

November 2026

Longleaf Property Management Group

Longleaf runs student-housing and association teams for fees only and holds no client money. Its partners financed an office build-out and two vans with a loan recorded as fee income. Before those books can explain the business, you need to distinguish its borrowing from the fees its teams earned. Open the loan against prior-period equity, correct the association-administration item, and place the annual management-software license. Split installments, apply combined receipts, and reconcile three accounts. Practice reconstructing the financing and revenue of a property-management business without inventing client-fund activity.

Hollyhock Lane Rentals

A nurse has put eight rental units on one lane into a new company. Savings funded the deposits and first make-ready work.

Wildrye Canvas Camp

A former guide has put six canvas tents on a leased meadow and opened Wildrye. A booking platform pays out after deducting its fee, while a wedding collective and retreat company book entire weekends on account. A housekeeping collective invoices twice a month. You’re building the camp’s first quarter, including a canceled stay. Record stays at gross, account for the cancellation refund, and keep the housekeeping collective classified as a contractor.
