Data analysis compilations
In the compilation process, data analysis is a foundational practice when it comes to a company's financial records and how they are reflected in the annual accounts. What accounting principles were followed and are there any anomalies? Are there any potential legal risks? Have the correct VAT amounts been charged and remitted? Data analysis quickly and reliably reveals any irregularities or unusual events.
Data analysis for compilations
Applying data analysis in the compilation process sheds light on several key areas, such as:
- Administrative checks: Key reconciliations such as payroll journal entries, current accounts, or opening balances can be verified at a glance.
- Financial analyses: Financial analyses are made available per period and per client, optionally compared to the previous year.
- Top customers & suppliers: Your largest customers and suppliers are shown in a clear overview, including sales per customer or purchases per supplier. This can lead to valuable discussions about dependence on specific clients or suppliers, as well as regional spread.
- Personnel costs: These are broken down per period, per FTE, and in relation to pension contributions and social security charges.
- Accounts receivable turnover: The status of outstanding receivables is made visible, such as whether outstanding balances from the previous year have since been paid.
- High-risk countries: Instantly see which countries your organisation does business with.
- VAT analysis: Quickly assess whether the correct VAT has been charged or reclaimed in a specific period, across all purchase and sales invoices.
Data analysis is used to safeguard quality: it allows discrepancies or irregularities to be detected faster, more efficiently, and more accurately.
