From checklist to connected scan.

These guides document the exact cleanup patterns BustedBooks is turning into a QuickBooks-connected report: duplicate payment candidates, vendor spend spikes, new-vendor high spend, round-number review, missing context, catch-all account cleanup, and owner-ready next steps. The scanner should reduce the first-pass review burden without pretending every anomaly is fraud.
