Technology can also be a barrier to close books faster. Companies that use desktop spreadsheets to manage their accounting, closing takes about 25% longer to get it done. If your company is still busy closing its books, it can and should do better. A faster close needn’t cost anything and the time invested in making improvements will pay off handsomely. 1KEY Financial Consolidation is a complete data warehouse model with standard statutory reporting requirements for publishing financial statements and with extensive analytical reports. It provides financial managers the ability to rapidly close and report financial results, meet global regulatory requirements, reduce compliance costs and provide confidence in the numbers. 1KEY FCM reduces finance team work from few weeks to days and most important error free with audit trail. Our implementation team will ensure right extraction of data from your SAP, CBS, Back Office or any other ERP data sources and import it in DW model of 1KEY FCM. Then map chart of accounts and automatically all reports for statutory publishing will be available with internal analytical MIS for group reporting scenarios.

Financial Reporting Last Decade 12 to 18 months statements were made and closed in few quarters after the end of period Consolidated Statements were not Mandatory Current Decade Yearly & Quarterly Statements were made and closed in few months after the end of period Consolidated Statements became Mandatory (AS-21) Expectations Today Yearly, Quarterly & Monthly Statements are required to be closed in weeks & days Consolidated Statements required by LAW and also Management

15. Why we need FCM As an organization grows, so does the difficulty of its financial consolidation and reporting challenge. Organizations have to deal with multiple currencies, geographies various accounting standards Changing reporting requirements Compliance Regulations. Integration of new business units into the reporting chain. Through all of this, the organization must balance the need for precise financial reporting and corporate governance with the need for timeliness in meeting reporting deadlines

16. Our Solution

18. User Change Management: Change of Person, increases the time required to do consolidation and is prone to risk of errors

20. Structures once created can be reused and reapplied without special efforts

22. Technology Platform: Use of FILE Based platform is vulnerable in large group working

24. Uses standard RDBMS retrieval as well as 1KEY technology & architecture to Extract, Transform & Load data

26. Report generation & information dissemination: Requires lot of manual intervention because users have to develop and consolidate individual files, run reports and then share them for use by other Business Users

27. Role-based report rights: Users need to segregate data and make it available as different reports for different business users1KEY FCM Offering Organization hierarchy is supported at the report level. i.e.: Report templates can be the same, but user will be able to view only data pertinent to his function / role in the organization Query building is a one-time activity which requires IT intervention. Business Users can run / format / templatise their own reports Once role-based logins are defined in the 1KEY application, data is automatically segregated as per the Business Users role / function

29. Data sanctity across the enterprise / teams: Since Excel is the presentation layer, data editions / deletions often happen knowingly / unknowingly which creates unfriendly scenes / time loss (for data conformance) during team meetings

31. 1KEY presentation layers don't allow editions / deletions

33. Single Report Multiple Data Sources: Requires manual working and prone to errors

34. User training: Business User needs advanced training on EXCEL, functional aspects and controls1KEY FCM Offering Cube creation happens at the Business User level. Analysis is possible on every parameter with one-time technical activity One time query built-up activity and a single report can show data from multiple data-sources which can be different RDBMSs as well i.e.: SQL, Oracle, DB2, Excel etc. Interface similar to Office Applications, reduces the user training needs, and users increase productivity from 1st day

36. Remote Viewing: One gets snapshots of data, and is under risk of latest file getting missed in review

37. Static Reports: The formats are vulnerable and gets changed by error1KEY FCM Offering High level snapshots are possible to be given with ROLE Based access control for Total Business Control XML based publishing of data for remote analytics. The user can use the power of Analytics when not connected to Network / Internet Static Report Designer, empower to print various formats Statutory or others based on the Role based Security

38. Challenges & Solution Challenge Scenario Management: Management expects to have the numbers being compared with multiple scenarios to review performance Audit Trail: Current EXCEL process lacks trace of the changes and hence reduces confidence on output Cost of Compliance: Repetitive Energy is invested in regrouping the same data for different compliance and reviews, leading to increase in Cost and Time 1KEY FCM Offering Empowers the users to analyze the data in Multiple Scenarios against Budgets, with or without specific entry types, testing the change impacts, without affecting the source data and process Exhaustive Audit Trails for the Data Capture and Change Cycles provides greater visibility on the activity and enhances confidence in the process It reduces TIME to CLOSE, provides Single Interface for Multiple Compliance Reporting Structures at One Source - Leading to Great Savings

39. Challenges & Solution Challenge Multi Period Comparison: External Factors lead to having comparison with Non-Traditional flows for better understanding and reading of datasets Use Interface: Users are expected to remember the cells and sheets that need to be changed, risk of incidental errors is very high 1KEY FCM Offering Comparison & Variance Analysis with various data Period to provide better decision control system Carefully selected Interface and process to help the Functional Users conveniently handle the process with confidence and clarity

41. 3 Idiots Business Mainly Performance Driven with its FOCUS on TOP Line, Bottom line, Growth %age, etc. Technology Mainly Structure driven where Security takes over the Flexibility and mapping with Business Need. Statutory Compliance Mainly Procedure driven where Submission of Information in particular formats is focused, often requiring disruption of current processes

42. Business Stake Holders / Report Users Management Government Banking & Finance Auditors Investors Industry

43. Technology Multiple Data Input Sources Application Spread across Geographies Multiple Applications for Processes Challenge to manage out of the process information Heavy Dependency on most FLEXIBLE tool EXCEL

44. Statutory & Compliance Accounting Standards Applicable Compliance / Statutory Reporting Formats Schedule VI of Companies Act US GAAP SEBI Reporting IFRS Reporting Reporting for Other Authorities Industry Norms & Regulations

45. Accounting Standards AS 13 – Accounting for Investments This Statement deals with accounting for investments in the financial statements of enterprises and related disclosure requirements.

46. Eliminate bottlenecks for faster close A faster close through streamlined financial consolidation and reporting processes – without sacrificing data quality Safe adaptation to changing needs without having to rebuild or destroy previous reporting scenarios, saving time and money Confidence and corporate compliance with reliable data for legal reporting and management decisions

47. What do our teams do USE EXCEL Can we improve their performance?

48. Excel Chaos Manual spreadsheet generation is a breeding ground for errors Little centralized control on spreadsheet published data Poor data integrity; chances of error very high Inability to react and reflect change in case if any, at speed and with accuracy. Unmanageable consolidation mechanics for mapping chart of accounts hence time consuming A small error in formula may present whole picture in different way Lack of integration with other systems and purely manual each time same laborious work No support for multiple line items in an account Inflexible reporting, so cannot do any analytics on data Little facility to view data across different dimensions, periods, currencies, ratios etc.

It automates the complete process of reporting and avoids the cumbersome work of manually creating and/or delivering reports to respective business users on a periodic basis.

60. Run your company from anywhere DASHBOARDS, users can define their own Dashboards having combination of multiple reports like View, Gauge, Chart, KPI's, RSS Feeds etc, on one single screen. Dashboard is a reporting tool that can be defined as a user interface for organizing and presenting data in a consolidated manner. Data from multiple sources are integrated and unified for display on a single platform. This makes the information easy to read and comprehend, all on the same screen.

61. Key Performance Indicators KPI are high-level snapshots of a business or organization based on specific predefined measures. KPIs typically consist of any combination of multiple reports. They may include global or regional sales figures, personnel stats, real-time supply chain information, or anything else that is deemed critical to a corporation's success. KPI allows goals to be observed with different warning colors that will be switched on as defined giving the user a quick view of how well or how poorly each goal is met. It is the best way to track and represent variances on targets & budgets.

62. File Reader 1KEY FILE READER is a utility that imports data from Text Files, Excel Files, stores it into 1KEY CUBE or 1KEY VIEW for direct reporting and analytics. 1KEY users get the benefits of another key functionality which not many reporting tools software provide as of today.

64. Role Based Security 1KEY uses "parametric control" for controlling access over business information which is available to users for their reporting needs. Parameters are mapped to the user hierarchy of the organization and hence the access to the relevant data. Parameters definition can be one of the fields available from the system or can be user defined based on the requirement of the organizations.
