What if you could create balance sheet specifications automatically when you choose, and using the data you choose?

Aico Account Reconciliation automates the preparation and review of accounts during the reconciliation process. These features support the employees involved in the reconciliation process and introduces consistency in the reconciliation process and control over who does what and when, making it easier to prioritize the reconciliations.

Typically, data to be reconciled is manually added to excel spreadsheets and this is done for all General Ledger (GL) accounts. Aico automates this work by connecting to data in the ERP through integration and by running that data through predefined auto-reconciliation rules. Only the accounts that do not pass rules are sent to be reconciled to responsible people in the workflow. To help you reconcile the accounts that do require your attention, Aico provides you with support for multi-phase approval workflows, real-time monitoring and dashboards through which you can drill-down directly into the underlying data.

Remediation actions take place and propagate in real time, so you don't have to wait for the next data upload, and can continue work within seconds of posting.

Dashboards

Easily monitor the status of all account reconciliation tasks - who is responsible for them and whether they are late, sort tasks by priority, risk, company code, and the assigned user. This makes the entire process highly visible for different stakeholders, such as the reconcilers themselves, financial controllers, shared service center managers, business partners, internal auditors, and external auditors.

Automatic reconciliation rules

You can use configurable automatic reconciliation rules to allow accounts to be reconciled automatically by Aico.
