Real-Time Reconciliation Across 8 Entities for a Multi-Entity Financial Services Group

A multi-entity financial services group moves from discovering reconciliation discrepancies on Day 8 of the close to live, real-time reconciliation status across all entities.

The Challenge

Before adopting PayConnect, this financial services group's reconciliation process was almost entirely retrospective. Discrepancies between bank statements, sub-ledgers, and the general ledger typically weren't discovered until around Day 8 of the monthly close — by which point tracing the root cause across eight separate entities was slow and labor-intensive.

Each entity reconciled independently using its own spreadsheet templates, with no consolidated view of reconciliation status until the very end of the close.

The Solution

PayConnect's reconciliation platform was deployed across all eight entities, connecting directly to bank feeds and the general ledger to match transactions continuously rather than only at month-end.

  • Continuous, automated matching of bank transactions against the GL throughout the month
  • Consolidated reconciliation dashboard spanning all eight entities
  • Discrepancies flagged and routed to the responsible entity owner as soon as they appear
  • Standardized reconciliation templates replacing entity-specific spreadsheets

The Results

Reconciliation status is now visible in real time across all entities, rather than being reconstructed at the end of the close.

  • Real-time reconciliation status across all 8 entities, replacing Day 8 discovery
  • Discrepancies identified and resolved within the same day, on average
  • Zero reconciliation-related audit findings in the two cycles since go-live
  • Entity-level reconciliation spreadsheets retired in favor of one consolidated platform
