What is the difference between a full-charge bookkeeper and a regular bookkeeper?
Asked by beej
I am a bookkeeper and am very familiar with Quickbooks. I am applying for a new job and they asked me if I am a full charge bookkeeper and I of course said yes! Then it started to make me a little nervous. I work with the accountants at both of my jobs. They do use the general ledger in Quickbooks and I have never seen this before. Any jobs I ever had they never used general ledger. Let me know!!

Best Answer:
A full charge bookkeeper in my experience would be required to provide monthly financial statements to management. Which would require an understanding of the general ledger and how general ledger entries are made.
25 years as an accountant.

as a bookkeeper you know that there are different areas accounts payable accounts recievable payroll capital operating tax etc... a bookeeper might have one of these title and a full charge bookeeper handles all titles.. it used to be if you were bookeeper you did all of them but now it is fancy words in companies/
