Close automation for a 31-entity group: reconciliations run themselves and every variance arrives with an explanation attached.
Closing the books took twelve days across 31 entities. Four hundred manual journal entries were re-keyed each month, reconciliation lived in a shared workbook, and the CFO learned about variances in the review meeting.
- 01
Reconcile on arrival
Bank, intercompany and subledger reconciliations run continuously through the month, so day one of close starts from a matched position.
- 02
A close with owners
Every task has a name, a deadline and a dependency. Blocked items escalate on their own instead of surfacing on day nine.
- 03
Variance with a reason
Movements above threshold are traced to the underlying transactions and annotated before review, not during it.
Close now finishes in days rather than weeks, manual journal work shrank, and the review meeting discusses the business instead of chasing numbers.
