Why Upgrade?
Why should you make the change to dEPM?
Why should you make the change to dEPM?BlackLine Matching allows you to automatically match transactions for a given account based on parameters preset by the user. In BlackLine you can create a multiple list of parameters for matching transactions. Such as Same Date and Amount, Same Check Number and Amount. Same Deposit Date and Amount. Etc. But the special feature of setting parameters in BlackLine is that it is very easy for the user to build parameters with logic.For example you can set a matching parameter that can use a data range for Date and Amount. As you know the day we record the transaction in the General Ledger is not necessarily the same transaction date in the Bank for Example. You might have your deposit record in the bank 2 to 4 days after the date you recorded in the GL. With BlackLine matching you can set the date as a range from the Date it recorded in the GL to plus 4 days out and the amount, and BlackLine Matching will use this logic when automatically matching transactions. You can use the range option to any field you are matching such as amount variance for example. BlackLine Matching can automatically match a transaction for you, or you can preset variances to prompt the user to verify the BlackLine matching if the variance in Date or Amount are past a specific range. This will allow the user to verify the automatic match before it’s recorded in BlackLine to avoid any wrong matchings based on the parameters and variances. The ability to automatically match transactions such as bank transactions, credit card transactions and even regular accounts of importance that you wish to have matched can greatly reduce the labor of manually matching transactions and thus allowing the user greater productivity in other areas of their daily and monthly roles. Adding BlackLine Matching to your current installation of BlackLine will greatly reduce the manual process and reduce numerous hours of labor which in turn will offset the cost of BlackLine Matching and also producing greater accuracy and consistency in matching of account transactions.
