Value highlights
- All accounts, journals, closing in one place: Every journal posts in real time, consolidating subsidiaries and departments.
- Cash flow visibility and simulation: Combine inflows/outflows with bank balances to see cash positions and forecast liquidity.
- Balance sheet management: Link sales, inventory, and procurement data so frontline teams can act on balance sheet KPIs.
Sanka setup essentials
- Standardize on
Journal Entryplus a chart of accounts with sub-accounts, department, and project dimensions. - Align transaction objects (Sales/Procurement/Expense/Payment) to the same accounting properties for CSV/API export.
- Manage closing with period statuses and lock dates to prevent post-close edits.
Operating steps
- Master design: Define accounts, sub-accounts, departments, and projects; apply them to transaction objects.
- Journal creation: Auto-generate entries from orders/invoices/payments/procurement/expenses; handle fees or differences with adjustment lines.
- GL & trial balance: Aggregate journals into the ledger and review balances by period/department/project.
- Financial statements: Template PL/BS/CF and keep them live; lock periods at close.
- Cash planning: Merge expected inflow/outflow with bank balances to monitor weekly/monthly cash positions.
Automation ideas
- Workflow actions: When closing starts, lock edits on related objects except for approved exceptions.
- Record actions: Alert on abnormal balances (for example, negative inventory or unmatched postings).
- Object actions: On bank import, generate journal candidates and queue them for review.
Reporting and oversight
- Dashboards for department PL, cash flow statements, and balance sheets.
- Year-over-year and month-over-month variance widgets for leadership reviews.
