Report the whole group from the ledgers your entities already use. Control maps each entity to one group chart of accounts, translates every currency into the group currency, eliminates intragroup activity and keeps each consolidated figure open to the transactions behind it.
Singa kept the systems its three entities already run, including Procountor, Xero and Stripe. Its revenue data now arrives on day one instead of 5 to 7 days after month end, without an ERP project.
Each entity keeps its own accounting system and its own chart of accounts. Map each local account to the group account with the same meaning, and the whole group reports on one structure, whichever ledgers sit underneath.
Remove intragroup activity from the group view without touching the entity books. An automated rule eliminates the activity in a chosen entity account or group account from a start date. A manual entry handles a one-off elimination, reclassification or consolidation adjustment.
Pick the group currency and Control translates each entity from its functional currency. By default, assets and liabilities use the current rate and income statement and equity activity use the period rate. Change the default by account type, or add an exception for one account.
Drill into a consolidated value and see which entities and local accounts make it up, then the entries themselves. The period, entities and currency travel with you. Claude, ChatGPT and Codex can follow the same path over MCP.
The adjustments that usually live in a side spreadsheet stay in the group view, each on its own line and each open to its entries.
Balances and activity translate at different rates, so a translated balance sheet can stop balancing. Control calculates the cumulative translation adjustment for every month and posts it to equity, split into Currency CTA and Elimination CTA.
Show eliminations in their own column, between the entity values and the group total. Drill into an elimination line to see its entries apart from source and CTA rows. Elimination CTA stays separate, so a residual from a one-sided or mismatched elimination is easier to spot.
Post consolidation-only entries straight to the group chart of accounts, in the group currency, with an optional group dimension. Minority interest presentation uses the same group-level manual entries, not an automatic ownership-percentage calculation.
Build the group structure, then let each sync bring the entity books in. The group view follows the ledgers.
Each entity connects its own accounting system. Its books stay the source of record.
Point local accounts and dimension items to their group equivalents.
Set the group currency, the rate treatment and the elimination rules.
Check entities, eliminations and the group total side by side, then drill to the entries.
No. Each entity connects its own system, such as Netvisor, Fortnox, Xero or NetSuite. Control maps each local chart of accounts to one group chart of accounts, so the group reports on one structure.
No. Elimination rules and manual entries change the consolidated view only. They do not edit or delete source transactions, and they never post back to an entity’s accounting system.
Control consolidates the connected entities in full. Minority interest presentation is handled with group-level manual entries, not automated ownership-percentage calculations.
Yes. Claude, ChatGPT, Codex and other MCP clients can read group and entity financial statements over MCP, down to the transactions behind a figure. Each user’s Control permissions still apply.
