QBO health check
Guided read-only diagnostic for QuickBooks Online

How healthy are your QuickBooks books?

Connect QBO for a guided read-only diagnostic that surfaces close-readiness signals and review candidates. Operator review stays in the loop.

Fishing operator context can be preserved here

Fishing AEO pages pass source tags into this Health Check so ArnBooks can later read back page-level CTA clicks and Health Check starts.

Real QBO scan

Categorization clarity

81%

34 of 42 purchases have a named non-default category.

Show derivation

Illustrative sample only: last-90-day purchases with a primary category that is not blank, Uncategorized, Ask My Accountant, or a generic fallback.

Close-readiness proxy

74%

31 of 42 purchases have vendor, category, and clean amount present.

Show derivation

Illustrative sample only: vendor present + non-default category + positive amount divided by sampled purchases. This is not tax advice.

Recurring exposure

6 vendors

$1,872 estimated annualized recurring spend.

Show derivation

Illustrative sample only: same normalized vendor, similar amount, at least three charges, and monthly or annual cadence.

Source coverage gaps

1 flag

QBO labels mention a platform that ArnBooks does not see as natively connected yet.

Show derivation

Illustrative sample only: QBO account/vendor labels compared to ArnBooks source-connection metadata. This does not prove deposits are missing.

Coverage notes

Illustrative sample: QBO labels mention Shopify, but ArnBooks does not show a native Shopify source connection yet. This is a coverage flag, not a reconciliation finding.

Recurring exposure: 6 detected vendors, $1,872 annualized.

This sample uses anonymized, illustrative figures only. Your diagnostic is a diagnostic, not professional accounting or tax advice.

Privacy strip

The diagnostic runs in your dashboard. This flow reads the QBO data needed for the scan, does not write to QuickBooks, does not sell your data, and does not email you unless you ask. Nothing is shared without consent.

How it works

Connect QBO, review 90 days, see the first cleanup signals.

01

Connect QBO

Create an ArnBooks account and connect QuickBooks for a guided read-only scan.

02

We review 90 days

ArnBooks reads recent purchases plus a 12-month recurring-spend lookback for operator-watched diagnostics.

03

See first review areas

You get scores, derivations, review candidates, and a Solo path for ongoing month-end support.

Run mine

Choose the connected scan or the no-connection estimate.

The connected version is more useful because it is designed to show transaction counts, vendors, and review candidates from your ledger.

Path A · connected

Run the real QuickBooks scan

Sign in, connect QuickBooks, and ArnBooks reads recent purchases to calculate the health snapshot. This health-check flow does not post anything to QuickBooks.

90-day purchase scan
12-month recurring check
No transaction detail persisted

Path B · no connection

Quick estimate

Five questions, then email-gated addendum. This is explicitly an estimate without seeing your real QuickBooks data.

FAQ

Questions before you connect?

Is this free?

Yes. The QuickBooks Health Check is a free diagnostic. Solo is the paid public path for ongoing month-end support.

What does ArnBooks see?

For the connected path, ArnBooks reads QuickBooks purchase history, account labels, and connection metadata needed to calculate the diagnostic. The health-check flow stores run metadata, not transaction-level diagnostic details.

How do I disconnect?

You can disconnect the QuickBooks app from your Intuit account, and you can also manage the ArnBooks connection from the dashboard connection settings.

Can I get the report without connecting QBO?

Yes. Use the quick estimate path. It asks five questions and makes clear that the score is estimated without seeing your ledger.

How accurate is the diagnostic?

The connected scan uses real QBO data and shows derivations for every metric. It is still a diagnostic, not accounting or tax advice. The quiz path is less precise by design.

What happens after I run it?

You can use the result as a starting point for cleanup with your accountant or continue with ArnBooks Solo for ongoing month-end support.

Is this full-service bookkeeping?

No. The health check is a fast snapshot. ArnBooks Solo is self-serve month-end support, not tax advice, CPA services, or full-service bookkeeping.

Final CTA

Run the health check, then use Solo for ongoing month-end support.
