For the countless organizations with leases, the dreaded January 1, 2022, deadline to become compliant with ASC 842, IFRS 16 and GASB 87 accounting standards is now here. Companies across the globe are scrambling and looking for help to meet this new standard. Finding ways to operationalize the adoption of the new standards and mitigating the risk of human error when it comes to managing their leases in excel are priorities. Additionally, trying to move beyond third party integrations and becoming faster and more agile in their adoption of accounting automation software are concerns.
It is only fitting that companies want to quickly become compliant and, at the same time, automate processes and meet standards. For those organizations with a handful of leases, they may want to transition using traditional spreadsheets that they can upload into their accounting software. Netgain has built a lease accounting spreadsheet that can be downloaded here.
Software solutions allow finance and accounting teams to run the amortization schedules and, in a matter of seconds, create the lease liability, the Right-of-Use asset, the lease payment, and lease expense. By entering a few key details such as the monthly payment, term, initial borrowing rate and lease commencement date, you can free yourself from spreadsheets.
For companies with a larger quantity of leases, a streamlined solution embedded into their ERP and that posts to their GL is most efficient. With an intuitive embedded app solution, accounting teams are empowered with the ability to see all their leases in a single system. An all-in-one approach to embedded lease accounting software gives organizations the ability to save time and effort, so they can devote more of their resources to their overall mission.
