General Information
What Data Required to Run the Audit & Review Analytics Module?
To run the Audit & Review Analytics Module, you need to only provide Accounting Data.
Accounting Data:
General Ledger Report: The module needs detailed transactional data from your accounting system.
Comparative Trial Balance: This includes the balances from the prior period for comparison to the current period.
Note: If your GL includes beginning and ending balances, a trial balance is not required.
The comparative trial balance is used to perform a completeness check over the accounting data.

This model allows us to provide value at all levels of complexity, ensuring a fair cost for every client.
Can I consolidate multiple entities into one to reduce costs?
Our pricing is based on a per-entity model, which ensures accuracy, transparency, and entity-level insights. However, not all engagements require entity-level information. When deciding between entity-level and consolidated reporting, consider the following:
Loss of Entity-Level Insights – Consolidating data removes the ability to analyze trends, transactions, and reconciliations at the individual entity level. This can result in missed insights, such as EBITDA adjustments or the identification of errors.
Our Data Conversion Services does Not Consolidate Data – Consolidating data requires significant judgment based on client-specific details. Because of this, our team is not equipped to perform data consolidation.
Intercompany Transactions Need Proper Treatment – If you choose to consolidate, intercompany transactions must be correctly accounted for and eliminated to prevent overstated or misstated financial data.
For optimal accuracy and insights, we recommend keeping entities separate in the system. For guidance on structuring your entities, reach out to your Account Manager, our team is happy to discuss best practices.
