ServicesMonth-end close

Month-end entries prepared and tied out. The controller posts them.

An agent reads the month’s activity from your ERP, prepares the recurring entries a controller builds by hand every month, and runs the tie-outs. Every entry lands unposted, and the controller reviews and posts each one. lumic builds it on site and keeps it working.

How it works

Read, prepare, tie out. A person posts.

  1. It reads the period.

    The agent reads the month’s activity straight from the ERP. Reading is all it does at this stage.

  2. It prepares and ties out.

    It prepares the recurring entries and runs the tie-outs before anything is approved.

  3. The controller posts.

    Every entry lands unposted. The controller reviews each one and posts it. Posting stays a human action, every month.

What it prepares

The entries a controller builds by hand every month.

Each entry is balanced, checked against existing entries so nothing is entered twice, and reversible until a person posts it.

01

Payroll entries

Payroll journal entries, with the month-end accrual and its reversal when a pay period crosses the month.

02

Bank reconciliation

Bank-reconciliation adjustments, prepared from the reconciliation the agent runs.

  • Bank to book
  • Unposted until approved
03

Inventory clearing

The inventory clearing entries, prepared for the controller to review.

  • Prepared every month
  • Unposted until approved
04

Monthly adjustments

The monthly adjusting entries, built the same way every month.

  • Balanced before staging
  • Never entered twice
05

Tie-outs first

Bank reconciliation, an intercompany tie-out where a business runs more than one company, and an income-statement tie-out, all before anything is approved.

  • Run before approval
  • Intercompany where it applies
06

A live result

A live income statement, consolidated where there is more than one company, shows the result as soon as the entries post. A monthly management report reads the books live, and the controller finalizes it after month-end.
