Frequently Asked Questions

How do you structure the chart of accounts?

We design COA structures based on business requirements, reporting needs, industry standards, and regulatory requirements—implementing logical account numbering, hierarchical organization, department/location segments, and project tracking dimensions for comprehensive financial visibility.

What types of journal entries do you process?

We handle standard recurring entries (depreciation, amortization, allocations), adjusting entries (accruals, prepayments, reclassifications), correcting entries, consolidation entries, and closing entries—all with proper documentation, supporting schedules, and approval evidence.

How often do you reconcile GL accounts?

Balance sheet accounts are reconciled monthly during close process. High-volume accounts (cash, AP, AR) may reconcile weekly or daily. Reconciliations include variance analysis, aging of reconciling items, and documented resolution of discrepancies.

Can you migrate GL to a new system?

Yes. However, we're not limited to these systems—our team adapts quickly to custom in-house tools, legacy systems, or any software your organization uses, ensuring seamless integration with your existing technology stack. We manage GL migrations including COA mapping, opening balance transfers, historical data migration, parallel running during transition, reconciliation between old and new systems, and user training—ensuring accurate cutover with minimal disruption.

How do you maintain GL controls?

We implement segregation of duties, approval hierarchies, automated validation rules, restricted access by role, mandatory supporting documentation, regular account reviews, and exception reporting—maintaining SOX compliance and preventing errors or fraud.
