Accounting systems consulting built for operations
Select, configure, and document the accounting stack so it supports clean month-end closes and consistent reporting. We focus on practical implementation: roles, workflows, controls, and a chart of accounts that matches how you operate.
Service overview
Accounting systems are most effective when configuration, workflows, and controls match the way your business actually runs. These services are designed to reduce friction, increase consistency, and make the close easier to manage.
Clarity
A chart of accounts and workflow that supports your reporting needs.
Consistency
Repeatable month-end close steps with ownership and timelines.
Control
Permissions and approvals aligned to how work flows.
Common problems solved
Where accounting systems usually break down.
- Chart of accounts is hard to use and doesn’t match operations
- Month-end close is inconsistent, slow, or dependent on one person
- Approvals and permissions are unclear or too permissive
- Workflows are manual, duplicated, and lack a standard process
- Migrations left cleanup work, mapping gaps, or reconciliation issues
- Reporting is inconsistent due to coding/categorization variance
What implementation includes
A practical plan, hands-on configuration support, and documentation your team can maintain.
Assessment + plan
- Current-state review of tools, workflows, and pain points
- Target-state design and prioritized implementation plan
- Timeline, roles, and decision log
Build + handoff
- Configuration guidance (COA, classes/locations/projects as applicable)
- Close checklist and workflow documentation
- Permissions/controls recommendations and implementation support
