Finance Team

FSG Integrity Checker for:

The Finance Team

If you’re a CFO, Financial Controller, Management Accountant or any other member of the finance team, this tool will hopefully provide you with the peace of mind that your financial reports are in good shape.

In our experience, managing FSGs presents a number of challenges:

  • They get out of sync with the business and may not reflect all the information you need to report
  • There are so many of them, it’s difficult to know which ones are used and which ones aren't
  • Many FSGs are old and the people who developed them have long since left the organization

When you are dealing with something as important as financials, having accurate reports upon which you make important business decisions is essential. How can you be sure that your FSG reports are integral?

The FSG Integrity Checker is a tool designed to empower end users. You can install the software on any PC in seconds and by clicking through a couple of simple screens, you receive a summary and health check score that gives you a heads up of the state of your FSGs.

If you want a detailed report, you can get that too by clicking through, anonymously if you wish, to our Web site. This gives a detailed breakdown of all your reports and the potential issues they have.

IT / ERP Specialist

FSG Integrity Checker for:

The IT/ERP Specialist

As the IT or ERP Specialist responsible for your organizations FSG reports, this tool will help you keep on top of your FSG report management.

In our experience, building and administering FSG's can be problematic:

  • The data structures that underpin your FSG reports are always in a state of flux and transformation, taking a perfectly working FSG report and introducing errors through no fault of your own
  • You’re asked to build lots of FSGs, but it’s difficult to know which ones people in business are truly using and which ones they’re not. That means you have to manage them all, rather than focusing on the key reports
  • FSGs can be complex and finding issues can be like looking for a needle in a haystack

The FSG Integrity Checker is a tool to help you manage your FSG reports better. By helping you identify problem reports and which reports are used the most, you can better manage the reporting process for your organization.

You can install the software on any PC in seconds and by clicking through a couple of simple screens, you receive a summary and health check score that gives you a heads up of the state of your FSGs.

Internal Auditor

FSG Integrity Checker for:

The Internal Auditor

As an internal auditor, this tool will help with the report compliance responsibilities and ensure that you have a handle on the integrity of the reports used by your organization to make important financial decisions.

In our experience, maintaining the integrity of financial reports is a constant battle:

  • FSG is a tool mostly used by IT, but based on information from the Finance team. It’s difficult for the finance team to continually validate something that they have not produced
  • The volume of financial reports that need to be managed and maintained in many organizations is extremely high
  • Perfectly fine FSG reports can become problematic by changes to the underlying data structures without anyone ever knowing about it

The FSG Integrity Checker is an end user tool to help you provide some of the checks and balances needed to maintain a strong financial reporting process.
