Month-end close prep: books reconciled and ready to close
Review a finished close pack instead of assembling one, with every account tied out to exactly zero.
Month-end close prep is a recipe in Ai1, the AI agent platform by MyZone AI, where several agents and skills work together to deliver one outcome. The Bookkeeper categorizes every line from the exports you upload and reconciles each account to exactly zero, then the CFO Agent reviews the close pack and explains what moved. A person approves every change and posts it in your accounting system.

At a glance
Month-end close prep in short
| Agents | Bookkeeper and CFO Agent |
|---|---|
| You upload | Bank and card statements and ledger exports, as files in chat |
| Reconciled | Each account to exactly zero, or an exception |
| You get | A close checklist and a close pack with the variances explained |
| Posting | Done by a person in your accounting system |
Why prep the close
Month-end often means days of matching statements to the ledger before anyone can say what moved. This recipe does the categorizing and reconciling from the statements you upload, so the close starts from a finished pack and your time goes on the decisions.
How this differs from the CFO Agent on its own: the recipe adds the Bookkeeper, so the CFO Agent reviews a close that is already tied out line by line.
How it works
How the recipe runs
A simplified view. Every change to your books waits for a person.
Step 1: Upload
Bank, card and ledger exports, as files in chat.
Step 2: Categorize
Every line is categorized from rules and your past bookkeeping. Uncertain lines wait for your choice.
Step 3: Reconcile
Each account is tied out to the ledger to exactly zero, or an exception is raised.
Step 4: Build the close pack
It runs the close checklist, lists anything still open and builds a private close pack. Missing entries and miscodes become proposals.
Step 5: Review and explain
It reviews the pack, explains what moved and why, and prepares any adjustments for sign-off.
You approve
Step 6: You approve
You approve each proposal and adjustment, and a person posts them in your accounting system.

What it was asked: Are we ready to close March?
| Accounts | 3 of 3 tied out: two bank accounts and one card, each to exactly $0.00. |
|---|---|
| Timing item | A $480.00 supplier cheque has still to clear the bank, listed with its date. |
| Proposals | Two missing entries and one miscoded card payment, each waiting for your approval. |
| Variance | Flour costs up 12% on February, explained by a supplier price rise on the invoices. |
| Still open | One card receipt is missing, and the close checklist lists it. |
| Posting | Nothing posted. A person posts the approved entries in your accounting system. |
Built-in guardrails
No money moves without your OK
Here is how the recipe keeps you in control.
- The Bookkeeper cannot pay bills, move money, post entries or run payroll. Every change to your books is a proposal a person approves.
- Closed months are read-only. A fix becomes a proposal dated in the current open month.
- Your statements stay in a private area of your Ai1 server and are never posted to a chat channel, shared by link or published.
