Managing finances for a single entity is challenging enough—but for CFOs and accountants overseeing multi-entity or global organizations, the complexity multiplies. Traditional ERP systems or outdated accounting software often require manual reconciliations, Excel workarounds, and long reporting cycles. For businesses running on Sage 300, Sage 100, or other legacy systems, this can result in slower decisions, higher compliance risks, and unnecessary costs.
Enter Sage Intacct, a cloud-native financial management solution designed to simplify even the most complex consolidations. When paired with Sage Cloud Hosting and the expertise of ADSS Global, CFOs gain the ability to close books faster, streamline compliance, and gain real-time visibility into global performance.
In this article, we’ll explore how Sage Intacct helps simplify multi-entity and global consolidations, why CFOs should consider upgrading, and how ADSS Global provides the expertise to make the transition smooth and successful.
The Challenges of Multi-Entity and Global Consolidations
For growing organizations, managing multiple entities and global subsidiaries presents significant challenges:
- Manual Reconciliations
Finance teams spend countless hours reconciling intercompany accounts and eliminating duplicates.
- Currency Conversions
Multi-currency operations often require manual calculations, leading to errors and compliance risks.
- Slow Consolidations
End-of-month and year-end closings drag on, making it difficult for CFOs to provide timely insights.
- Compliance and Audit Pressure
Tracking compliance across regions requires precision and reliable audit trails.
- Data Silos
Legacy systems like older ERP systems or basic accounting tools don’t integrate well, creating reporting bottlenecks.
These issues frustrate accountants, delay reporting, and limit CFOs’ ability to guide strategy.
