The source activity permits designing accounting systems, records, documentary cycles and bookkeeping processes, but explicitly states that the firm may not examine or audit accounts.
The investigation selected Accounting & Bookkeeping activity 6920003 and separated ordinary accounting/bookkeeping work from audit services that would require a different professional/regulatory basis.
Professional licences often fail at the service-description level. We make sure the marketing promise matches what the activity actually authorizes.
