What are the most important items to include in my end-of-financial-year checklist?

A robust EOFY checklist should cover: bank reconciliations, fixed-asset register updates, superannuation lodgements, instant asset-write-off purchases, stock-take, debtors/creditors review, closing sheets in accounting software, deferred income or prepayments, and BAS preparation. At Trinity Accounting Practice we walk clients through a tailored suite of tasks specific to their structure and industry.

How early should I start preparing my EOFY checklist to avoid last-minute stress?}

Ideally you should begin your EOFY preparations 3–4 months before June 30. Start by clearing the previous year’s work and scheduling tangible actions such as asset purchases, reconciliations, and strategic consultations. Staying ahead ensures you maximise entitlements and meet lodgement deadlines without surprises.
