Accounting is the technical support of enterprise financial management and one of the most basic and important functions of enterprise finance.

The nature of enterprises, the amount of funds, accounting policies, credit policies, industry characteristics, preferences of main decision makers, and even the experience of fund scheduling personnel may give enterprises some help The use and management of funds bring about deviation. Through the establishment of enterprise fund management system, the improper use of funds can be prevented to a certain extent.

Hi Sharon, Make sure you do the following. 1. Record all the money that comes in and goes out. 2. Open a bank account where to deposit all the sales money, withdraw money when there’s business need. 3. Make and keep payment vouchers for each payment made 4. Do not use business money for your own personal expenses, rather pay yourself a salary where you can draw money for personal use. 5. Keep track of every transaction and your business money.

All the best, Bright
