Key features of an Axway accounting solution

Integration of financial data

Rules management

The rules of the accounting interpretation solutions are centralized on the same accounting software. It is equipped with an accounting integrator that acts as a rule engine. The parameterization of the applications is done with the help of various programming language tools such as Cobol. This allows the automatic creation of working documents, including dashboards. The “Composer” application offers the possibility of creating rules that vary according to the specific needs of the trading company and the standards in force, which differ from country to country.

The treatment of discharges

Some data are sometimes rejected by the computerized accounting interpretation system. Accounting tools such as Interplay can process the information automatically. The Interplay interface handles data that is not accepted by the system and can be entered by hand. This software solution also enables the recycling of business data that circulates through applications and ensures the veracity and traceability of all financial transactions.
