FINANCE CONTROLS AND AUTOMATION PLATFORM





DESIGNED ENTIRELY IN THE CLOUD FROM THE GROUND UP, BLACKLINE IS THE ONLY UNIFIED
TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE. NO MESSY
ACQUISITIONS, NO DISPARATE HYBRID SOFTWARE-HARDWARE COMBINATIONS, AND NO
EXPENSIVE MIDDLEWARE OR UPGRADE COSTS, JUST THE WORLD’S MOST TRUSTED SOLUTION
FOR FINANCE CONTROLS AND AUTOMATION.




THE UNIFIED CLOUD FOR ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE

The simplicity and usability of BlackLine solutions are unique. Unlike some
systems on the market today, BlackLine is not a Frankenstein patchwork of old
software and hardware. Rather, it’s a comprehensive Finance Controls and
Automation platform built on a single codebase and delivered securely via the
cloud. Users enjoy a consistent experience with single sign-on and avoid
constantly switching between multiple systems. Data is available between
products within the platform as well, without having to be transferred between
or through other systems. Organizations can manage the entire accounting and
finance lifecycle and gain a global view into tasks and processes, all in one
centralized, secure, and reliable system: the only unified cloud platform built
specifically for finance and accounting. When clients purchase BlackLine, they
focus on adopting the technology for process improvement rather than supporting
its infrastructure.


BLACKLINE PLATFORM INTEGRITY

DOWNLOAD BRIEF


BLACKLINE PLATFORM SOLUTIONS



BlackLine helps organizations modernize processes, embed controls, and obtain
unprecedented visibility into accounting and finance by centralizing key
accounting functions within a single platform. In addition to automating
period-end processes, BlackLine solutions enable companies to move beyond the
antiquated record-to-report process to a new approach known as Continuous
Accounting. This evolution of process optimization and technical automation
facilitates continuous monitoring for fraud and inaccuracies, delivering greater
visibility to the organization and unleashing accountants to contribute greater
value to the broader business. Advance critical accounting operations and
centralize account reconciliations, journal entries, variance analysis,
intercompany transactions and processing, task assignments, checklists, and the
financial close with BlackLine.



FINANCE TRANSFORMATION SOLUTION

BlackLine Finance Transformation solution centralizes the management of all
period-end close activity and streamlines accounting workflows, general ledger
reconciliations, journal entry management, and other period-end processes. It
enables the timely completion of financial and regulatory reporting and ensures
simplified auditability. Trust in the accuracy of your financial reports with a
controlled and transparent close process.

LEARN MORE

ACCOUNTING PROCESS AUTOMATION

BlackLine Accounting Process Automation solution is designed for organizations
looking to innovate and optimize their record-to-report process. It covers the
full reconciliation to adjustment process, allowing for transactional process
automation through configurable matching rules with automated clearing of items.
This enables organizations to take their operations to the next level and focus
resources on strategic analysis, not transactional monotony.

LEARN MORE

CLOSE PROCESS MANAGEMENT

Specifically designed to orchestrate and accelerate the close, BlackLine Close
Process Management provides tools that work in unison to help manage and execute
the “last mile of finance”. By embedding controls and standardization in
reconciliation and period-end close processes, BlackLine becomes a configurable,
web-based command center from which you can manage accounting and finance tasks
and monitor the end-to-end close process.

LEARN MORE

BALANCE SHEET INTEGRITY

A critical internal control over financial reporting, the account reconciliation
process creates a foundation for organizations to evaluate business performance
and support strategic decision making. The BlackLine Balance Sheet Integrity
solution standardizes and automates your general ledger, bank, credit card,
cash, and other operational reconciliations to streamline and control close
cycles and ensure the integrity of your financial statements.

LEARN MORE

INTERCOMPANY HUB

The BlackLine Intercompany Hub provides a clearinghouse for intercompany
transactions that eliminates after-the-fact manual intercompany reconciliations
and settlements. It interfaces with a company’s core ERP systems and manages all
of the global complexity inherent to intercompany accounting. Stop sacrificing
control and wasting time and resources on these challenges and centralize the
process from end-to-end.

LEARN MORE

SMART CLOSE FOR SAP

BlackLine Smart Close for SAP enables modern finance organizations to make the
best use of their resources and be more strategic by automating, simplifying,
and standardizing the financial close, directly within SAP. Your organization
gains the confidence of improved balance sheet integrity and automated, audited
processes that improve productivity and controls. It’s Robotic Process
Automation for the Financial close built directly in SAP.

THE BLACKLINE DIFFERENCE: THE UNIFIED CLOUD FOR FINANCE AND ACCOUNTING


DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE: THE UNIFIED CLOUD FOR FINANCE & ACCOUNTING

DOWNLOAD


THE DIFFERENCE IS CLEAR



Many companies offer products to support accounting and finance functions, but
most solutions are cobbled together from hardware and different software systems
not originally engineered to integrate with each other. Not all systems are
created equal. There are complex issues with customization, service packs,
version control. Stop fighting with poorly integrated software. There’s a better
way. BlackLine is an entirely cloud-based, comprehensive accounting system that
is a single solution. Whether users are preparing account reconciliations,
adding journal lines, executing tasks, or running reports, their experience is
consistent. BlackLine was built organically on a single codebase, meaning every
component of the platform is naturally integrated and designed to work with the
rest of the platform. With multiple major feature additions a year,
high-availability up-time, and a highly secure data model, BlackLine’s unified
model delivers consistency and reliability, and enables accounting teams to
focus on process improvement and best practices. The difference is clear.

management, and controls assurance. The BlackLine Finance Controls and
Automation platform helps midsize companies and large enterprises by filling in
the gaps left by ERP and CPM systems and thereby strengthening controls,
lowering compliance risks, and introducing greater efficiencies and visibility
into every step of the accounting process.

BlackLine’s Modern Finance platform delivers a fresh approach that increases the
quality, accuracy, and efficiency of the financial close process and other
period-end activity. This new approach, known as Continuous Accounting, embeds
automation, control, and tasks typically not performed until the period-end
directly within day-to-day activities, allowing the rigid accounting calendar to
more closely mirror the dynamic nature of actual business cycles. This not only
more evenly distributes workloads over time, but also enables continual
monitoring for errors, fraud, and unusual fluctuations. BlackLine’s unified
cloud platform empowers accounting and finance teams to automate period-end
activities and to drive continuous accounting processes across their
organization. BlackLine is the only technology available that enables an
efficient and accurate process and provides real-time reporting and analysis.
