Closing the Gap: Managing Journal Entry Risk in the Record-to-Report Process

ON DEMAND WEBINAR
Duration: 1 hour

Journal entries are a critical component of the record-to-report process, but they’re also a common source of risk, inefficiency, and control gaps. Manual input, inconsistent processes, and limited visibility can lead to errors, delayed approvals, and audit challenges, slowing the close and compromising financial integrity. In complex intercompany environments, these issues are amplified.

This session explores common journal entry pitfalls, the widespread impact they have across financial close and intercompany, and how automation and intelligence can transform this high-risk area into a source of accuracy, efficiency, and intelligence.

Learning Objectives:

Identify key journal entry pain points, including manual input, limited controls, and delayed approvals, and understand their impact on speed, accuracy, and compliance.
Understand how poorly managed journal entries can disrupt close timelines, intercompany transactions, and reporting accuracy.
Discover how BlackLine’s Journals Risk Analyser identifies anomalies and provides actionable insights for more accurate, efficient, and intelligent financial operations.
