Run the close from a single, orchestrated workspace

Plan, execute, and track every close task across entities, teams, and systems — without chasing updates. Ledge brings your entire close into one live workspace. Tasks, owners, dependencies, approvals, and evidence are all connected, so everyone knows what’s done, what’s blocked, and what needs attention — in real time.

With Ledge, we can scale reconciliation without scaling headcount.
We were able to go live quickly without R&D or costly implementers & saw very fast time to value.”

FAQ

How is this different from a traditional close checklist or project management tool?

Traditional checklist tools track tasks but don’t understand the structure of your close, and are not accounting-specific. Ledge’s close management is connected directly to NetSuite and your finance systems, so tasks are created, blocked, and completed based on real dependencies — accounts, entities, reconciliations, and reviews — not manual status updates.

Does Ledge automatically account for new accounts, entities, or structural changes?

Yes. As new GL accounts, custom segments, or subsidiaries are added in NetSuite, Ledge detects them automatically and creates the required close tasks. There’s no need to manually update checklists or maintain a separate close tracker.

Can we standardize the close globally while allowing entity-level flexibility?

Yes. You can define required close tasks centrally across the group, while allowing individual entities or regions to add local tasks. This lets you enforce consistent controls without forcing a one-size-fits-all process.

How does Ledge handle task ownership, reviews, and segregation of duties?

Ownership and reviewer assignments are defined per task, not just by role. The same user can be a preparer on one task and a reviewer on another, aligned with your control matrix. All approvals and sign-offs are tracked automatically.

What happens when tasks are blocked or running late?

Tasks are automatically blocked when prerequisites aren’t complete, making dependencies visible to everyone. Ledge highlights bottlenecks in real time and sends smart reminders through Slack, Teams, or email — reducing the need for manual follow-up.

Can we manage different timelines, calendars, and holidays across entities?

Yes. Ledge supports multiple national holiday calendars and custom calendars, so due dates reflect real working days for each team and region.

How does collaboration work during the close?

Comments and discussions live directly on close tasks and reconciliations, not inside emails. Every comment, change, and decision is retained as part of the task history, so context isn’t lost between periods or reviewers and can easily be retrieved for audits.

Where is supporting documentation stored?

Supporting documents are attached directly to close tasks and reconciliations. Ledge also integrates with cloud storage tools like Google Drive, keeping evidence centralized and linked to the relevant work.

Is there a complete audit trail of close activity?

Yes. Every task creation, update, approval, reopening, comment, and sign-off is logged with who did what and when. This gives audit and internal control teams a full, defensible record of the close process.

How does this fit with reconciliations, working papers, and journal entries?

Close management in Ledge orchestrates the entire workflow. Checklist tasks are directly connected to reconciliations, working papers, and approvals, so progress reflects real completion — not manual box-checking.

Does Ledge train AI models on our financial data?

No. Ledge does not use your data to train public or shared AI models.

Your financial data, close workflows, and supporting documentation are used only to run your AI agents and execute your close. They are never used to train models for other customers or external systems.

Ledge’s AI agents operate within your environment, follow your permissions, and access data on a read-only basis by default. All data handling aligns with enterprise security and confidentiality requirements.

Run the close without chasing updates

When the close runs as a coordinated system, your team spends less time managing work and more time reviewing results.
