For the Chief Financial Officer

Month-end, not month long

The finance function deserves a back office that does the assembly work for the team, not against them.

Close cycle days
Reduced manual reconciliation
Audit findings
Fewer manual process errors
Forecast variance
Reliable board reporting
DSO
Faster cash conversion

The metrics that define the seat — and what's costing you on each one.

If your team is bleeding time on any of these, the architecture is fighting you.

  • Close cycle days

    Your team is spending half of every month on reconciliation. The close should be days, not weeks.

  • Audit findings

    Manual processes pile up. Each one becomes a finding. The remediation eats the quarter after.

  • Forecast variance

    You walk into a board meeting and can't stand behind your own numbers because the data underneath them is stitched.

  • DSO

    Cash sits in AR because invoices don't match orders, cash app is manual, and payment follow-up depends on someone remembering.

Month-end used to be the first full week. Now it's three days. The team finally has bandwidth for FP&A. We're forecasting accurately for the first time in five years.

What makes this work.

When the close goes from 8–12 days to under 5, audit findings drop from a dozen to a handful, and the forecast holds up in front of the board — it's because of the architecture underneath, not better discipline on top.

The challenge

Native multi-entity architecture

How we solve it

Multi-entity, multi-currency, sales tax automation built in. No bolt-ons.

Consolidation runs as a report, not a project.

The challenge

Real-time posting to GL

How we solve it

No overnight batch.

The close starts with the data already where it needs to be.

The challenge

5-Year Price Lock

How we solve it

Predictable platform cost across the budget cycle. No per-user fees.

Adoption stops being a budget conversation.

Questions finance leaders ask.

Real-time financial visibility, predictable total cost over multi-year horizons, audit trail and compliance support built in, and operational integration that eliminates reconciliation between finance and the rest of the business.
