Multi-entity accounting is complex, and one wrong accounting entry can slow down the whole operation. Multi-entity organizations face such complexities as multiple currencies, global consolidations, decentralized payables, and inter-entity transactions, to name a few of the challenges. What’s more, consolidating multiple companies, products, and/or divisions can add weeks of time to the financial close process to begin with, and that’s when errors aren’t present.
Fortunately, growth is easy, reports are clear and easy to run, and closing is faster with continuous multi-entity financial consolidation software. To get ahead of the curve, implementing an accounting solution that comes standard with the following features can save many future headaches in multi-entity scenarios.
Consolidations – Continuous close capabilities allow the CFO to gain immediate views of consolidated financials and easily move through the soft close and period close processes.
Intercompany Postings – Automatically posting a transaction across multiple entities in a single screen ensures books for both “due to” and “due from” are always in balance.
Acquisitions – Newly acquired companies can be integrated faster with features that rapidly clone company setups.
Currencies – When global operations are involved, financials can be easily viewed in local currency for field operations, or standardized into a single currency for headquarters purposes.
Reporting – Reporting and analysis benefits from real-time visibility with instant roll-up reporting or consolidations.
Auditing – Transactional data, along with workflow documentation and approvals, are visible with a click of a button, right down to the journal entries.
