What is it?An advanced financial reporting and planning suite

Unit4 prevero Consolidation is a new solution that brings together the

consolidation and statutory reporting capabilities of Unit4 Financial Performance

Management, with our state-of-the-art performance management tool for

advanced planning and budgeting.

It is ideally suited to large and medium-sized organizations that need to ensure compliance and want to increase

efficiency in their financial performance management process. It improves the quality of numbers and analysis and

ensures compliance – for both statutory and management reporting and consolidation. It also enables you to add

an integrated financial planning process on top of this – leading you from strategy and objectives, via bottom-up

operational planning, to regular dashboards that help your management see and interpret any deviations, so they

can make better-informed decisions for the future.

Unit4 prevero Consolidation ensures compliance, increases the efficiency of financial reporting processes and provides

accurate financial data as the foundation for integrated strategy planning, business planning and financial budgeting to

drive future performance.

Why is it better?The consolidation system that thinks like you do

Unit4 prevero Consolidation has been created by people responsible for the consolidation process. Thanks to their

insights and experience, it follows a clear workflow and helps you and your subsidiaries to import and collect information

in a reliable, efficient and very user-friendly way. It includes a powerful consolidation logic, where all main processes

are pre-defined and ready to use. This saves you time in implementing the system but also in everyday use – giving you

back more time for analysis and for taking strategic business decisions. Consolidation covers all statutory constituents,

including: balance sheet, profit and loss statement, OCI, cash flow and disclosures. Besides that, you can integrate

additional dimensions, in order to reflect your operational data, and use them for consolidated reporting and business

ratios. At any time, you can retrieve up-to-date, reliable numbers for your internal or external business reporting – either

on (sub-) group level, by unit and/or by any other operational dimension – such as segments, product groups or functions.

How does it help?It simplifies

Unit4 prevero Consolidation supports both local GAAPs and IFRS. This is achieved without any lengthy setup process,

as the consolidation “logic” is embedded in the system. It provides you with user-friendly functions for data input,

data validation and checks, intercompany reconciliation, currency conversion and all legally defined consolidation

steps for statutory reporting. All steps are included in a workflow, where each user can see their tasks and the status of

them, according to their authorization level. You will gain a system that enables you to explain all changes that occurred

during the consolidation process, by just drilling down to the transaction. An integrated audit trail is combined with full

journalization of all postings, giving full transparency and auditability to the process. The software makes complying with

complex accounting regulations a straightforward and well documented task.

It automates

Unit4 prevero Consolidation is cost effective and easy to implement. Data input is designed up to the size and

requirements of each of your entities. Convenient and self-explanatory web-based data entry as well as automated

data import from your ERP solution (or even multiple ERPs). The automation is achieved by a user-friendly, wizard-

driven setup in an import module and in-built web-services-based integration with Unit4 Business World On! and Unit4

Financials. All with a self-service approach– therefore no programming skills will be needed to adopt these processes

to your environment. The flexibility of our solution helps you to deal with times of rapid change within your company or

from legislation, for example: mergers and acquisitions, restructuring and new operational dimensions. By reducing time

needed for financial closing and reporting, you will have more time to actually analyze the numbers and add value to

the business.

It analyzes

Unit4 prevero Consolidation includes a powerful report generator and dashboard designer. This ensures that your

reports and graphs are properly displayed, and dedicated analysis features will help you to pinpoint the significant

changes. The system gives you an almost unlimited number of values for comparison, such as currency exchange

rates, business dimensions, forecast, different scenarios of budgets and actual. It offers you a 360-degree view of

your business – either by unit, area, product, project or customer – including an audit trail and drill-down possibilities.

Reporting can be used either in your intranet or automatically be distributed by mail. You can use dashboards,

or integrate with MS Office documents. An integrated MS Office integration helps you to keep your Word, Excel and

PowerPoint documents up to date.
