Kedge for finance teams
Finance & Cost Control
GRNI accruals, three-way matching and budget variance, handled before month-end closes. Kedge lines up orders, deliveries and supplier invoices so finance spots differences while they can still be fixed.
Three finance checks, one chain of evidence.
- Three-Way MatchCompares the order, the delivery receipt and the supplier invoice line by line. Price rises, short deliveries, missing bills and bills without a receipt surface as flagged exceptions, each linked to its source record.
- GRNI AccrualGoods received but not yet invoiced are tracked continuously. Kedge prepares the month-end accrual with suggested journals and aging, plus a committed-spend view of open orders and GRNI. Finance posts the journal; Kedge prepares the evidence.
- Budget vs ActualYour departmental budget is loaded from finance's own budget sheet, then spend is tracked against it month-to-date and year-to-date. Finance sees the variance; operations sees the reason.
Cost control before and after Kedge
Reconciliation stops depending on separate spreadsheets and becomes a dated trail back to the source.
| Before | After |
|---|---|
| Three systems that never agree | One chain of evidence: order → receipt → invoice |
| GRNI from ageing spreadsheets | Accrued from delivery records |
| Price rises found at month-end | Flagged when the invoice is matched |
| One person holds the reconciliation | Every figure linked to its source record and date |
Never replaces your general ledger.
Kedge prepares the evidence; your finance team posts the journal. Your accounting system stays the system of record.
Questions finance teams ask
- Does Kedge replace my accounting system?
- No. Your accounting system remains the system of record.
- How does a budget get in?
- Your own budget sheet is uploaded, so departments work against the budget finance already uses.
- Does Kedge post journals or pay invoices?
- Never. Kedge prepares, flags and exports. Your finance team reviews and posts.
- How long to be running?
- Days, on your own data.

Thirty minutes on one real month — the orders, what actually arrived, and what the supplier charged. If it is not a fit, we will say so in the meeting.
