Powerful Benefits of Acumatica General Ledger

Accounting Business Solutions Green Bean

Control Your GL Account and Sub-Account Structure

Define the structure of your GL system accounts and sub-accounts. Organize your reporting and analysis configuration by defining segments, segment lengths, and segment values.

Enhance Reporting

Create different views of your data, or dimensions, using Acumatica subaccounts. With Acumatica subaccounts, nearly unlimited reporting dimensions are available to slice financial reports by product, department, or any user-defined segment. Consolidated and summarized data can be displayed in the monthly, yearly, and quarterly views.

Protect Your Data

Control roles and access permissions by account and sub-accounts to protect sensitive data and improve accuracy. Limit ‘on-the-fly’ sub-account entry to specific sub-accounts based on pre-defined combinations of segment values.

Dimensional Reporting Using Subaccounts Overview

Streamline GL Consolidation

Combine data from multiple entities for consolidated reporting and analysis, different currencies or different account structures notwithstanding. Adjustments for minority interests, inter-company transfers, and other transactions are preserved to avoid duplication.

Important Features of Acumatica General Ledger

Advanced Financial Reporting

Design financial statements using sub-account segment structure and configured hierarchy. Publish reports on the web or distribute as Excel or PDF files.

Flexible Configuration of Financial Periods

Define monthly, bi-monthly, annual, or custom financial periods. Keep periods open as long as you need to complete data entry and reconciliation. You can override automatic assignment of the reporting period based on the transaction date – the GL system warns of potential mis-entry.

Multiple Currencies Support

Enter GL transactions in different currencies with multiple currency support activated. Maintain balances in the base currency and the foreign currency.

GL Accounts Budgeting and Budget Approval

Maintain an unlimited number of budget scenarios, such as optimistic, pessimistic, or expected. Grant access rights for team members to provide input without viewing salaries or information from other subsidiaries. Approved budgets can be used in comparative statements and analysis reports.

On-The-Fly Sub-Account Entry

Add new combinations of valid subaccount segments on the fly during data entry. This feature allows efficient ongoing maintenance of a complex reporting structure.

Automatic Allocation of GL Balances

Distribute GL account balances over multiple accounts and sub-accounts based on predefined allocation rules based on percentages, quantities, or statistical data, or proportional to other account balances. Create and run multiple subsequent allocation templates.

Drill Down to Original Documents

Gain immediate access to GL balances with a complete array of inquiry screens and reports. Drill down to the originating document from any inquiry screen or report, even if the transaction was created in another module.

Reversing and Auto-Reversing Entries

Reverse GL system transactions with one click. Automatically generate reversing entries in the next financial period during the post procedure or when the financial period closes.

Recurring Transactions

Create recurring income and expense transactions based on specific schedules and time periods. Design templates with expiration dates, execution limits, and custom execution schedules.

Audit Trails

Maintain a complete audit trail of all journal transactions throughout your GL management. Entries cannot be deleted. Corrections require adjusting entries. The system tracks the ID of the user who entered the transaction. Notes and supporting electronic documents can be attached directly to transactions.
