Airbase + Ledge Integration
With the ADP + Ledge integration, payroll data is automatically pulled and prepared for the month-end close using AI agents—so payroll accruals, liabilities, and reconciliations are ready for review, not rebuilt manually.
Eliminate manual AP rebuilds during close
But during the month-end close, that data is often re-exported, cleaned, and rebuilt in spreadsheets. Teams download reports from Airbase, reformat them, roll forward prior workpapers, and manually tie activity back to the GL—every period.
Ledge removes that manual rebuild using AI agents. Airbase becomes a direct data source to the close, with finance-controlled AI agents preparing the work consistently each month so accountants start in review, not data collection.
What makes Airbase + Ledge different
Airbase captures rich detail about bills, vendors, approvals, and spend. In Ledge, agents pull the exact Airbase data needed for accounting workflows and prepare close-ready outputs—such as accrual schedules, vendor-level reconciliations, and expense rollforwards—in the Excel formats your team already uses.
Expanse management rarely aligns perfectly with period boundaries. Late approvals, in-flight payments, and timing differences create accrual and reconciliation work every close. Ledge agents rebuild AP-related schedules each period using fresh Airbase data, so accruals, reversals, and explanations reflect what actually changed.
How the Airbase + Ledge integration works
Securely connect Airbase to Ledge in minutes using a native integration with an API key. Setup is fast, lightweight, and flexible enough to support multiple entities and accounts.
Use Ledge’s Agent Studio to configure how Airbase data supports your close. Describe the workflow in plain language—such as bill accrual logic, spend cutoffs, or vendor tie-outs—and create a custom agent in minutes.
Each period, agents automatically pull fresh Airbase data, rebuild Excel workpapers with live formulas, and prepare accruals and reconciliations. Your team reviews and approves instead of rebuilding from scratch.
AP and spend-driven close work, prepared automatically
Prepared work, not manual rebuilds
AP accrual schedules, vendor reconciliations, and spend rollforwards are built before review begins.
Excel-native outputs
Agents generate fully editable Excel workpapers with live formulas and clear traceability back to Airbase data.
Review instead of preparation
Accountants focus on judgment, exceptions, and approval—not exporting reports and fixing spreadsheets.
Audit-ready by default
Source data, logic, calculations, approvals, and changes are captured as part of the close.
Full visibility and control
Airbase-driven tasks are tracked alongside the rest of the close with clear ownership and status.
FAQ
Airbase is treated as an AP and spend data source that feeds agent-driven close workflows. It is not a standalone reconciliation tool or separate process.
No. Ledge works alongside your ERP and Airbase. Agents use Airbase data to prepare close work, while posting and payments follow your existing systems and approvals.
Yes. Ledge is Excel-native. Finance-owned AI agents generate Excel workpapers your team can open, edit, and review.
No. Ledge is human-in-the-loop by default. Agents prepare the work; accountants review and approve before anything posts.
What is Ledge?
Ledge is an agent-driven close management platform where AI agents don’t just track progress—they execute the close work under your team’s direction.
Each close task can have its own agent that pulls data from your ERP, banks, HRIS, AP platforms like Airbase, CRMs, and billing systems. Agents prepare reconciliations, schedules, flux analysis, and draft journal entries before the task is even opened.
Ledge combines close orchestration, Excel-native outputs, and human-in-the-loop approvals in a single platform—so the close runs on prepared work, not manual rebuilds.
