ACCOUNTS DEPARTMENTS UNDER PRESSURELegislation and regulations in finance and accounting are setting increasingly stricter standards for deadlines, documentation and the quality of reporting. Each company must comply with these require-ments, while also focusing on its day-to-day business operations.

Reconciliation is one of many areas where a growing number of com-panies are seeing the need to invest in new solutions, and implement measures to free up resources which can be used in other parts of the organisation.

Reconciliation has traditionally been connected with demanding paper-work, short deadlines and fragile work methods which make it difficult to identify exceptions.

The challenges can be due to large transaction volumes, complex struc-tures, or reconciliations that have to be reported at different times, which make it difficult to gain an overview.

Automate your reconciliation and free up resources for more critical tasks

Reconciliation Management Process

ADRA MATCH ACCOUNTS - PRODUCT OVERVIEW PAGE 5

IMPORT - ANY ERP FILE. ANY BANK FILE.

Before the reconciliation can begin, the data must be imported. With 20 years experience helping more than 3000 companies we can im-port files from any Accounting / ERP Systems and any bank.

The most common of our Verified ERP plug-ins:

SAP, Oracle, JD Edwards, Microsoft Dynamics, UNIT4/Agresso, Visma, Lawson, IFS, Jeeves, Aditro, Sage, Kronos, Concur, Infor,

Epicor, QAD, Ross, Syspro, Baan

The imported data contains mandatory fields such as:

> amount

> date

> reference

> text

it is also possible to add additional fields if the source file con-tains parameters that are relevant to reconciliations. When the data have been imported, AMA updates the account balances that have received the data.

Certified Bank files.We still havn´t seen a bank file that we couldn´t get to work with AMA. Currently we have users in 37 different countries and the list is growing constantly.

AUTOMATIC RECONCILIATION - BASED ON POWER AND INTELLIGENCE

What do you need for ultra-efficient matching? A powerful data matching engine and matching based on intelligent business rules.

Reconciliation criteria are defined for each account to enable AMA to per-form automatic reconciliation. With the help of AMA’s data matching engine, advanced business rules are drawn up determining what will be reconciled, how and at what intervals.

The rules are used to reconcile individual items against one another securely, but also many items from one side against one on the other, or many items from one side against many items on the other side.

> One – One

> One – Many

> Many – One

> Many – Many

> Add time intervals

The data matching engine can rapidly process large volumes, and any items that have not been covered by the rules for individual accounts can be pro-cessed using the flexible exception management feature.

If the user would like to view the reconciled items, it is easy to search for these items as they have all been assigned a reconciliation ID. All historic data is saved.

EXCEPTION MANAGEMENT - THE SMART WAY

Yes. It is important to have a powerful data matching engine and ability to set intelligent business rules. That´s how you can maximize the match percentage.

But. How you handle the items that doesn´t match is equally impor-tant, some customers would say even more important. AMA is de-signed to make this process as smooth and fast as possible.

Flexible Search & Sort features makes it easy to quickly find match-ing records.

The display for managing exceptions will show the items that were not reconciled by the automatic reconciliation. This display has flexible search and sort functions, and in addition to mandatory fields such as amount, date, reference and text, it is also possible to add other fields such as cost centre, currency and period.

Members of staff who work with reconciliation have the opportunity to add comments at the transaction level directly into AMA in a separate comment field. The comments are included in the reports when they are subsequently printed out.

AMA has a number of standard reports. The most frequently used are a report on open items and a list of balances. These are normally printed out and certified once the reconciliation has been completed.

The report on open items contains an overview of accounts and their respective balances when data is imported, open items, number of open items and any difference between the two source systems. The list of balances shows the balances for the respective accounts, as well as information on the number of open items and the difference between the balances on the source systems.

If corrections are made when processing excep-tions, the corrected amount(s) can be printed out in a separate report and used as an attachment when the item is corrected in the source system.

REPORTING MODULE (OPTION)For organizations with advanced needs there are a optional reporting module that makes it possible to create customised reports. The data available in the solution can be extracted and presented in different ways, also graphically. Examples:

> Internal balances

> Age analysis

> Accruals

> Risk analysis:

- Reports showing open items by age at time intervals of 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, or more than 60 days. - Recognised deposits not shown on the bank account, and withdrawals from the bank not shown on the general ledger. - Items that are reconciled with a deviation show how they were reconciled and by whom.

WORKFLOW (OPTION)

Organisational processes are subject to an increas-ing number of traceability and visibility require-ments. With advanced functionality for workflow you can better plan and organise the reconciliation work.
