Check account balances and credit line
Log into Bluevine and note the checking account balance. Critically, check if a Line of Credit is active and what the outstanding balance is — this is a debt of the estate.

Review payment obligations
If a line of credit is active, note the minimum payment schedule and due dates. Missed payments affect the business credit profile and may trigger default provisions.
Estimated time: Day 1-3
Secure debit cards
Review active debit cards and freeze any that are not needed for ongoing operations. Note all cardholders.
Estimated time: Day 1
