Solutions / For the finance lead
Month-end that is a review rather than a reconstruction.
The ledger is fed by the trading rather than assembled from exports of it — so closing is checking what happened, not working out what happened.
Who this is for: Finance directors, financial controllers and the person who actually closes the month.
What breaks today
The three you will recognise.
Written from what this kind of business actually reports, rather than from a list of features a competitor lacks.
Four exports and a mapping spreadsheet
Sales, purchases, payroll and stock each leaving their own system in their own shape, joined by a file that one person understands.
The numbers are a fortnight old when they are right
A board pack describing a month you can no longer influence.
Nobody can trace a number back
A figure in the P&L that cannot be followed to the transaction that caused it is a figure nobody can defend.
What changes
Not a promise about your results. A description of the mechanism.
These are things the software does. What they are worth in your business depends on your business, and we would rather say that than quote a percentage nobody can check.
Postings happen as the business trades
A sale, a purchase, a stock movement and a payroll run post as they occur, to the same ledger, with the document that caused them attached.
Drill-down is a link, not a request
Every balance is derived from transactions that are still there, so following a number to its source is a click rather than a favour.
One organization, one invoice, one audit trail
Including for the software itself — what you pay for the platform arrives as one bill rather than five vendors to reconcile.
The chain, end to end
Each step writes to the same records the next step reads. There is no export between them, which is why there is nothing to reconcile afterwards.
What you would actually buy
The products behind finance lead
In the order they matter here. Each is sold on its own, and the labels are the real ones.
