One of the most important features in lease accounting software is the ability to integrate journal entries with an organization’s ERP system. But many lease accounting software solutions lack the ability to do that easily, and some can’t integrate at all.
Lease Accounting Automatic Journal Entry Integration Problems
Either systems can’t integrate with ERPs, aren’t supported, or some buyers discover that delivered integrations simply don’t work.
The lack of integrations with an ERP system forces accountants to download data from their leasing software and spend hours in spreadsheets manipulating columns into the prescribed format, removing unnecessary data, adding the right cost centers and GL strings, and then uploading the journal entries into the ERP.
When lease accounting software doesn’t offer automatic journal entry integration with an ERP, accountants must spend hours doing manual work to meet ASC 842 compliance.
