Financial management that moves as fast as your organization
Master your general ledger
Consolidate and control financial and statistical information from across your organization in one GL.

Key Features:
- Centralized GL consolidating financial and statistical data
- Automated approval and confirmation workflows
- Real-time data visualization for reporting
- Single source of truth eliminating reconciliation work
Optimize cash flow automatically
Manage AR with built-in credit control that optimizes cash flow and debt visibility.

- AR management with credit control and cash flow optimization
- AP tracking from invoice receipt to payment completion

- Real-time cash and liquidity visibility
Manage assets with precision
Track fixed assets from acquisition to disposal with complete lifecycle visibility. Simulation routines let you test depreciation changes on Balance Sheet and P&L before implementing them.

Frequently asked questions
What is Unit4 Financial Management and what does it include?
Unit4 Financial Management is the core accounting module within Unit4 ERPx, including General Ledger, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Fixed Assets, Bank Reconciliation, and compliance reporting. It handles the complete record-to-report cycle for service organizations with automated workflows, multi-entity support, and IFRS/GAAP compliance.
The module integrates natively with Unit4 FP&A, HR, Payroll, and Projects, eliminating reconciliation between finance and operations.
How does Unit4 automate the period-end close process?
Unit4 automates routine financial processes such as transaction validation, approval routing, and reconciliation through workflow automation. AI-powered assistance supports users with task guidance, alerts, and recommendations, helping teams work more efficiently and reduce manual effort.
Bank reconciliation uses automatic transaction matching, and multi-entity consolidation is supported with predefined workflows.
Can Unit4 Financial Management handle multi-currency and multi-entity operations?
Yes. Unit4 supports multi-entity structures with automated consolidation, multi-currency transactions, and compliance with both local GAAP and IFRS. The platform handles complex organizational hierarchies across countries and legal entities, with intercompany transaction management and group reporting capabilities.
This makes Unit4 ideal for international service organizations with distributed operations and complex financial structures.

AI-powered automation is designed to reduce time on task by over 30%, cut errors by more than 50%, and increase speed to resolution by over 60% across business processes.
How does Unit4 Financial Management integrate with projects and HR?
Unit4 uses a single data architecture across finance, HR, and projects. Time tracked against projects flows automatically to finance for costing and client billing. Payroll costs post directly to the GL without manual journal entries. Employee data from HR is immediately available for project assignment and financial reporting.
This native integration eliminates the reconciliation work required when finance, HR, and projects run in separate systems.
