How it works

Unit4 Financials provides real-time financial visibility and control across your organization’s people, processes and IT systems. This relies on streamlining the ways you get data into the system, and enhancing the value of the intelligence that comes out so you can take action.

Get data in

Compliant Finance – 24/7 data accuracy and compliance

Unlike disparate or modular ledger systems requiring batch synchronization and time-consuming manual reconciliations, Unit4 Financials provides immediate visibility into your finances with a single version of the truth. Eliminate time lags, sub-ledgers, reconciling, and manual processes. Add, keep, and change systems without losing control.

Lean Finance – Ensure process efficiency

Traditional systems are hampered by rigid, generic user interfaces, requiring consultants or IT to hard-code updates for process improvements. Unit4 Financials provides automation solutions for statement processing, reconciliation and overhead allocation. You are in charge of making changes to processes, applications and people via workflows from within the user interface itself.

Get intelligence out

Intelligence Provider – Insight for informed decisions

Some finance tools limit you with rigid, inflexible generic reporting templates or P&L statements that lack dimensional data. Unit4 Financials empowers you with operational, real time, transparent tools that integrate across the organization. A unified ledger means no reconciliation, so no waiting — all the data is fresh and accurate across all your integrated systems.

Business Partner – Provide self-service advice for future growth

Finance often finds itself relying on a reporting team to process information, which leads to delays, generic report structures and information shortages. Instead, use a system that proves personalized, relevant data that you can access and customize yourself. Unit4 offers infinite ways to classify, measure, and analyze information, with data the way you want it. You can even use your browser for 100% of the reporting, so you don’t affect your database.

A unified ledger with multi-dimensional accounting

The best financial systems provide can turn complexity into simplicity. Unit4 Financials’ single financial model allows changes to be made efficiently in one, real-time single ledger system, without requiring reconciliation, so it provides financial information that is always in balance.

At the same time, the system’s multi-dimensional structure enables infinite ways to classify, measure and analyze data, regardless of complexity, for the best possible visibility. Now, each line of the business can monitor profitability the way it needs to. Multi-national operations with complex local regulations can capture transactions in multiple currencies, in multiple countries, in multiple languages. With this power, you can both meet specific local accounting requirements and maintain global consistency, visibility and control.

Gain insight amid complexity

Building on one unified ledger, Unit4 Financials provides unique real time financial intelligence. The platform gives users infinite ways to classify, measure and analyze data. Full online and in-memory reporting and Flexi-Fields allow any financial data to be captured and analyzed. Users can pull data to view via a web browser without putting it into your database.

Such tools are the most powerful when users can customize the system to meet their needs. With Unit4 Financials, each user can set up a personalized portal, dashboard and system layout, so their interface and processes match exactly how they want to use the system.

The result is a toolset with full self-service capabilities that helps users identify opportunities and make themselves a valuable partner to the business, mapping out potential paths and scenarios for the organization to succeed in the future.
