Accounting Software | Multi-Entity Consolidation
Six entities, one consolidated view. The region, from Singapore.
Multi-entity, multi-country, multi-currency consolidation is native, which is the whole job if your Singapore company holds the operating businesses elsewhere. Intercompany eliminations run inline. FX translation at closing, average or historical rate. Minority interest computed per entity. The group view drops in one click.

Compliance + integrations
Group consolidation that auditors trust.
Eliminations are tracked, not magic. FX translation methods are explicit per category. Minority interest is computed and reconciled per entity. The audit trail covers every elimination and every translation.

Multi-Entity Consolidation FAQ
What buyers ask.
Our Singapore company holds operating subsidiaries across the region. Can the system consolidate?
Yes, and this is the shape the feature is built around. Each subsidiary posts in its own functional currency on its own local GAAP, and the group view consolidates with FX translation, intercompany elimination and minority interest in one click. The version that hurts without this is not the annual audit, it is being asked for a group number in the middle of a month.
How are foreign-subsidiary differences handled?
Subsidiaries on their own local GAAP translate to the group basis at consolidation, with the translation adjustments posting to OCI. Per-GAAP statements stay available at entity level, which the local directors still need for their own filing, so nobody has to choose between the group view and the statutory one.
Minority interest computation?
Minority interest is computed per entity ownership percentage, including step-down chains, which get miscalculated by hand more often than anyone admits. The MI line surfaces on the group P&L and balance sheet.
Segment reporting?
Yes. Segment dimensions captured at JE level (cost-centre, project, business unit, country) roll up to the segment notes. Country is worth carrying deliberately here: for a regional group it is usually the segmentation the board actually asks about.
