Don’t Skip the Reports That Still Matter

Manually pulling some reports are still essential — here’s when and why.

While the Accounting Integration automates your daily journal entries, there are still a few essential reports worth reviewing to valid numbers or do a deeper dive into your transactions. 

Think of the integration as your time-saver for day-to-day entries, and these reports as your go-to tools for deeper financial insights:

  • Journal Entry Construction (Cash Basis): Offers a detailed look at every transaction that makes up your cash basis journal entries, giving your team the clarity needed to explain or investigate any data points.
  • Audit Trail Report (Accrual Basis): Use this to find the details behind each transaction shown on your journal entry — helpful for validating most accounts.

  • Liability Detailed Report (Accrual Basis): Complements the Audit Trail by covering accounts like Deferred Revenue, Prepaid Deposits, and Accounts Receivable.

  • Trial Balance: A summarized view of the Audit Trail, ideal for quick checks.

By automating routine accounting and still offering powerful reports for validation, our Accounting Integration in tandem with other tools available in our platform allow you to stay ready for everything from everyday reconciliation to high-stakes audits.
