The outcome

The month is soft-closed with every capital call booked, no draft left, a clean trial balance and your accountant’s sign-off.

What it proves

  • Books every capital call the ledger is missing, behind one approval.
  • Posts the month’s drafts and categorizes its entries in grouped approvals from your accountant.
  • Stops on a trial balance that doesn’t add up, and picks up once it’s fixed.
  • Waits for the 5th business day after month end with no one watching the clock.
  • Closes the month only after your accountant signs off and you confirm.
