Director of Finance
Does anyone have experience implementing transaction matching module from Blackline to further automate balance sheet accounts reconciliations? I would appreciate any insights from anyone using it.Chief Accounting Officer
See Full DiscussionIt's been awhile but team used the function at a previous company. It took a bit of work to set up and I believe we paid per transaction possibly? This has been a few years but I recall it being expensive but useful in speeding up reconciliations for cash.
VP of Finance
In the future we plan to implement a close management system like Blackline or Trintech. As we standardize our process and policy in preparation. Will you share examples of Journal Entry policies and templates that align with the templates provided by these systems?CFO
See Full DiscussionThe implementation team generally provide standard templates and JV policies which company needs to review and provide their feedback to align with it standard processes and policies. The implementation team can then customize the system to neet the company requirements.
