year end close readiness auditor
Example session with this skill installed
Review this year-end checklist: Bank Recs (Done), AR Aging (In Progress), Fixed Assets (Done, no docs attached), Intercompany (Open - $50k variance), Tax Accrual (Pending CFO). Deadline is Friday.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the year end close
- Generated the document
The year-end close readiness assessment identifies one critical blocker and several evidence gaps that must be addressed before the Friday deadline.
Year-End Close Readiness Report
| Control Area | Status | Priority | Key Observation | Evidence Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash and Bank | COMPLETE | LOW | Bank reconciliations marked done. | PRESENT |
| Accounts Receivable | IN PROGRESS | MEDIUM | Aging review currently underway. | PARTIAL |
| Fixed Assets | READY WITH CONDITIONS | HIGH | Marked complete but missing register. | MISSING |
| Intercompany | NOT READY | CRITICAL | $50k unresolved variance. | MISSING |
| Tax & Statutory | PENDING APPROVAL | HIGH | Awaiting CFO sign-off. | PARTIAL |
Critical Blockers
Intercompany Reconciliation: A $50k variance remains unresolved. This is a blocker for consolidation as eliminations cannot be finalized until the source of the difference is identified and corrected.
High-Priority Open Items
Fixed Asset Documentation: Task is marked complete, but no asset register or depreciation schedule was provided. This lacks the audit trail required for final sign-off.
*
Tax Accrual Approval: The tax accrual is sitting with the CFO. Any adjustments here will impact the final ETR and net income.
Action Register
| Priority | Area | Task/Issue | Recommended Next Action | Owner |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CRITICAL | Intercompany | $50k Variance | Match counterparty statements to identify entry error. | Unknown |
| HIGH | Fixed Assets | Missing Evidence | Upload FA Register and depreciation calculation. | Unknown |
| HIGH | Tax | CFO Approval | Secure sign-off on tax provision workpaper. | CFO |
Next steps
- Assign an owner to resolve the $50k intercompany variance immediately.
- Attach the Fixed Asset Register to the close folder to move status from 'Conditions' to 'Ready'.
- Follow up with the CFO for the final tax accrual sign-off.

About this skill
The problem
Manual year-end close tracking is prone to oversight, where tasks marked "complete" lack supporting evidence or hide critical downstream dependencies. Finance teams often struggle to identify true blockers among hundreds of line items before reporting deadlines.
What it does
- Analyzes close checklists and ERP exports to map task status against evidence availability.
- Identifies critical blockers where unresolved reconciliations or pending approvals threaten the reporting timeline.
- Normalizes fragmented status labels into a consistent readiness framework.
- Generates a structured Action Register prioritizing items by financial statement impact and dependency.
- Flags missing audit evidence like bank statements, subledger tie-outs, and management sign-offs.
Why this beats prompting it yourself
Generic prompts often fail to distinguish between a "finished" task and a "verified" one. This skill applies specific accounting control logic to ensure every status claim is backed by the expected workpaper or approval trail, preventing false confidence in close readiness.
Use cases
- Performing a gap analysis on month-end or year-end task trackers.
- Auditing balance sheet reconciliation status for missing evidence.
- Identifying manual journal entries pending approval before period lock.
- Preparing a readiness report for management or external audit kickoff.
Known limitations
Does not post journal entries or execute ERP period locks. Cannot determine tax or legal treatment without specific jurisdictional facts provided by the user.
