Remote + Ledge Integration
With the Remote + Ledge integration, finance teams automatically pull and prepare global payroll and employment data for the month-end close—so payroll accruals, reconciliations, and allocations are ready for review instead of rebuilt manually.
Stop rebuilding global payroll close work every month
Without Ledge, finance teams must manually export payroll results, employer taxes, and deductions from Remote. Then finance must reformat files, roll forward spreadsheets, and rebuild the same journal entry support every period. By the time numbers are ready, finance is already late on reconciliations and variance explanation.
Ledge treats Remote as an upstream system feeding the close. Task-specific AI agents that finance owns and oversees pull the data, rebuild the Excel spreadsheet for the workpapers you already use, and hand everything back to finance in “ready for review” state.
What makes Remote + Ledge different
Remote is often the system that holds the most important payroll inputs for month-end. That includes payroll results, employer taxes, benefit-related amounts, and employee-level attributes used for allocations.
Ledge allows finance teams to build task-specific AI agents that pull Remote data and prepare the supporting schedules and draft journal entries in your close format, so payroll tasks don’t start with CSV cleanup.
Global payroll introduces consistent close nuance: timing differences across countries, policy-driven accrual changes, and period-over-period movement caused by hires, terminations, and compensation changes.
With Ledge, task-specific AI agents rebuild payroll-related rollforwards each period with fresh Remote data and keep the backup tied to the underlying source rows and formulas, so review is faster and explanations are easier to support.
How the Recurly + Ledge integration works
Securely connect Remote to Ledge in minutes using an API token (bearer token). Setup is lightweight and flexible enough to support multiple entities or accounts.
Use Ledge’s Agent Studio to customize AI agents at the task-level. Describe the workflow with Remote in plain language (for example: payroll accrual logic, country-specific mapping, or headcount-based allocations) and create a custom agent in minutes.
Each period, AI agents pull fresh Remote data, rebuild Excel workpapers with live formulas, and prepare reconciliations, schedules, and draft journal entries. Finance reviews and approves instead of rebuilding, with full control over the AI agent at all times.
A faster, more controlled close for Remote-driven workflows
AI agent-prepared payroll workpapers
Payroll accrual support is built before review begins, using your structure and logic.
Excel-native outputs
Fully editable live formulas, rollforwards, and traceability back to source data.
Exception-focused review
Finance spends time on checks, judgment, and approvals, not exporting and stitching data.
Audit-ready by default
Source data and changes are captured as part of the close, not reconstructed later.
Visibility in the close checklist
Remote-related tasks are tracked alongside the rest of close work with clear ownership and status.
FAQ
Remote is an upstream workforce and payroll data source that feeds Ledge’s month-end close workflows. Ledge uses Remote payroll and employee data to power agent-driven close tasks like accrual support, reconciliations, and payroll movement rollforwards—not as a separate HR export process.
No. Ledge works alongside Remote and your ERP. Remote remains your finance team’s system of record for payroll execution and workforce data. Ledge uses that data to prepare close-ready workpapers and draft accounting support. Final posting and approvals continue through your existing ERP workflow.
Finance teams commonly use the Remote integration for:
- Payroll accrual support by country or entity
- Employer tax and benefit schedules
- Payroll-related prepaid or liability rollforwards
- Headcount-or compensation-based allocations
- Period-over-period movement explanations (hires, terms, comp changes)
- Draft journal entries with supporting backup
All outputs are built in your close format, ready for review.
Yes. Ledge is spreadsheet-native. Finance owned and controlled AI agents rebuild the same Excel workpapers your team already uses—with live formulas, rollforwards, and full editability.
Finance stays in Excel for review, adjustments, and sign-off.
No. Ledge is human-in-the-loop by default. Finance owned and controlled AI agents prepare the work, but accountants review and approve before anything is finalized or posted.
Nothing moves forward without finance oversight and control.
Global payroll introduces timing differences, local tax rules, and recurring movement across entities.
Ledge agents rebuild payroll rollforwards each period using fresh Remote data, while keeping support tied directly to the underlying source rows and formulas.
This makes review faster, variance explanations clearer, and close backup easier to defend.
Most teams connect Remote to Ledge in minutes using an API token. From there, finance can configure task-specific agents in Agent Studio based on existing payroll close workflows and mapping logic.
Setup is lightweight and scales across entities.
Depending on your workflows, Ledge can pull payroll and workforce inputs such as:
- Payroll results and pay components
- Employer taxes and statutory costs
- Benefit and deduction amounts
- Employee attributes for allocations
- Country- and entity-level payroll summaries
AI agents only use what’s needed for the close tasks that finance defines
Yes. Connections are token-based and follow secure API access controls.
Ledge is designed for finance-grade auditability, with traceability from every workpaper back to source data.
What is Ledge?
Ledge is an agent-driven close management platform where finance teams run month-end close with AI agents embedded directly in close tasks.
Each task can have its own agent that pulls data from your finance stack (ERP, banks, HRIS and payroll systems like Remote, AP platforms, CRM, and billing systems), then prepares reconciliations, schedules, flux analysis, and draft journal entries in Excel-native outputs.
Ledge combines close orchestration, execution, and human-in-the-loop approvals in one system. AI agents prepare the work using your rules and formats. Accountants review, adjust, and sign off. Nothing posts without approval, and every run is auditable.
