Month-end close management

When the books balance,
the screen goes empty.

Tasks disappear as you complete them. Blockers surface first. When nothing remains, the period is sealed.

How it works

Close by subtraction

Traditional close tools track what you've done. Ashford Ledger tracks what's blocking you.

01

Open the period

Generates your industry-specific close checklist. Every task, reconciliation, and sign-off.

02

Work the list down

Complete tasks and they vanish. Blockers surface. The count drops toward zero.

03

Seal the books

Screen empty? Hit lock. Period sealed with a full audit trail.

Subtraction dashboard

See what remains, not what's done. Tasks disappear on completion. Zero remaining = books sealed.

Industry templates

8 pre-built close checklists. SaaS deferred revenue. E-commerce COGS. Nonprofit fund accounting.

Dependency-aware tasks

Tasks know what blocks them. Can't approve financials before reconciliation completes.

Immutable audit trail

Every status change, every sign-off, every timestamp. Logged permanently. SOC 2 evidence ready.

Reconciliation engine

Track book vs bank for every account. Flag variances. Require approval before close.

Close analytics

Days to close trending down? Which tasks bottleneck? Who's blocking? Data answers.
