Sole proprietors who operate a sole proprietorship business owns , control , and manage the business all by himself . And just as he enjoys the profits and bears the risks he or she is also responsible to do the bookkeeping aspects of the business . But what happens in the case when the book keeper is separated from those that bears the risk and share the profits especially in businesses that are collaborated , or partnership related etc . Most bookkeeper in businesses today are not truthful and honest so they record false and untrue business entries in the business respective books of accounts . They also see their bookkeeping job as a way of stealing and taking business incomes .

First of all actions like this is very bad to a business well-being . Bad bookkeeping can make a business fail , go bankrupt , or liquidate . It also makes businesses with huge amount of inventories and after selling these inventories are unable to recover their profits sold in order to stock up more inventories . Qualities a good bookkeeper must exhibit are : truthfulness , honesty , integrity , diligent , punctual , and also professional in carrying out his or her prospective bookkeeping duties .

A very good bookkeeper should possess all of good qualilies besides the fact that they are responsible for prepare all the necessary books of account of the organization. And they hold alot of information about the business organization. A good bookkeeper should be someone is very intelligent and smart. It must be someone with a very level of integrity because such a person is holding hold or have access to the secret of the company or business organization, hence we must make sure that person will be someone with a very high level of integrity that will not compromise the informations of the business organisation to the outsiders or competitors of the business organization or that will no use the same information to their own advantage to defraud the business organisation as we have seen happen a couple of times in the business circle.

Such a person must also have a very strong accounting skills, this is what will help him or her to to discharge their duties with due deligence. Then such a person should be someone who has a very sound communication skills, because for such a person to function very well in the business organization he or she must be able to communicate effectively to the chain of commands.
