GAAP, Regulatory, and IFRS: How Secondary Ledgers Solve Financial Reporting Compliance Headaches

Date: Tuesday, December 18, 2012

Time: 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm Eastern

Location: GoToWebinar

Recent unparalleled changes in financial reporting requirements have transformed the way companies account for mergers and acquisitions, financial instruments, pensions, and other key accounting transaction and balance types through SEC regulations, new GAAP pronouncements, and adoption of IFRS. For many, this means core financial reporting has been relegated to manual spreadsheet reconciliations, transformations, and consolidations. Learn how this has all changed with the introduction of secondary ledgers in R12.
