Use a parallel run to resolve differences
A matching final total can conceal offsetting account errors. Compare a representative period at several points, including a late event and a correction. Keep the existing book authoritative during the agreed comparison, and document how each difference is classified. The purpose is a decision about control and ownership, not simply a successful data import. Agree opening-balance evidence and the history that must remain available. At cutover, name the authoritative posting path, the owner of in-flight items and the person who can stop or reverse the handover. Finance and engineering sign off the treatment of unresolved differences.
The Ledger Rocket approach
Ledger Rocket’s scoped accounts, explicit posting templates and configured reconciliation provide the records to evaluate against your existing books. Use a selected flow and account population to agree the intended treatment. Plan the source mappings, starting balances and handover as part of the adoption work.
Work through these cases
- Compare entry-level treatment and balances on the same account scope and date basis.
- Include a duplicate, a correction and a late external confirmation.
- Define the evidence that permits cutover and the conditions that stop it.
Discuss your flow
Bring one representative period and the current book’s supporting records. Use them to set the parallel-run scope and the sign-off criteria with finance and engineering.
