The Certification Workflow
How balance sheet certification works in ReconArt
Trial balance
auto-uploaded
Account balances are automatically pulled from any ERP or accounting system on schedule, eliminating manual data entry.
Preparer reviews and documents
Reviewer checks independently
A designated reviewer verifies the preparer’s work under strict SOD, before passing to the approver, as dictated by internal controls policy.

Task Management Your month-end close checklist — automated, tracked, and always on time.
The financial close is a recurring and consistent process of central importance to Finance and Accounting teams. Managing it through shared spreadsheets, email threads, and manual reminders creates confusion, unclear ownership, and unnecessary pressure — with progress hard to track and institutional knowledge locked in individuals rather than the system.
ReconArt’s task management module organizes close tasks hierarchically in calendars and pushes them through workflows where roles are strictly defined and users are prompted to take action.
Comprehensive, customizable financial close checklist mapped to your actual close process
Hierarchical task calendars with preset roles for month-end, quarter-end, and year-end variations
Clear role assignments — who does what, when, and in what order is defined in the system, not in email
Real-time progress dashboard — visibility for finance executives without disrupting the working team
Automated notifications and escalation rules for tasks approaching or past their deadline
Granular audit trail: detailed operation log, automatic controls, links to notes and attachments
Fully adaptive to organizational changes — new business lines, restructures, remote and home-office teams
Variance Analysis Identify deviations early. Investigate with precision.
-
Period-to-period comparison across any combination of months, quarters, or years
-
Threshold-based variance flagging: tolerance levels (amounts or %) to automatically highlight significant differences
-
Full documentation & audit readiness: ensures all variances are analyzed, justified, and accessible for auditors with detailed records
-
Automated monitoring & early insights: continuously tracks balance changes, enabling faster detection of risks during the close process
