The scope of a bookkeeper’s duties and responsibilities depend on the size of the business organization or establishment, and the way its accounting operation is set up. In a larger organization the bookkeeping function is generally split up into different areas of accounting, such as accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, general ledger, and possibly fixed assets or property.
