COA import	Xero, QuickBooks or CSV across entities	Merged master COA with merge audit trail

Compliance + integrations

A COA your statutory auditor reads at first glance.

US GAAP presentation out of the box, with the book-to-tax classification carried on the ledger so the tax workpaper is a by-product rather than a separate exercise in a spreadsheet. IFRS for the foreign parent group view. Multi-GAAP per entity, no parallel ledger to maintain.

Regulations we work within

US GAAP

Presentation line items ship pre-mapped per ledger.
Book-to-tax

Each ledger carries its tax treatment, so the M-1 workings fall out of the COA.
IFRS

IFRS line items mapped for foreign-parent group consolidation.
Books and records

COA changes captured in the audit trail with an edit log.

Chart of Accounts FAQ

What buyers ask.

Our group's entities each have their own COA. Can we still consolidate?

Yes. The migration tooling reads each entity's COA, surfaces duplicate and inconsistent ledgers, and merges them into a master. Per-entity overrides are preserved, which matters when one entity operates in a different country and genuinely needs ledgers the others do not. Once on a master COA, group consolidation runs without parallel mapping.

Does the XBRL mapping really work out of the box?

For a standard trading or services COA, most of it maps correctly on the first pass. The rest, typically industry-specific or unusually named ledgers, needs a one-time review and override. The mapping is locked per financial year once finalised, so next year's filing drops the day you close rather than starting from a blank tagging screen.

Can we have segment dimensions for cost-centre and project?

Yes. Segment dimensions (cost-centre, project, product, region) are first-class. Every JE carries the dimensions where applicable, and segment reporting is generated from these rather than rebuilt in a spreadsheet.

How does the COA handle an FY change in the law?

When a standard or the taxonomy changes, the master mapping is updated centrally and propagated. Per-entity overrides are preserved. Historic years retain their original mapping so the comparatives still tie.
