Data Interfacing

The BlackLine approach is that any electronically available information should not be retyped. Retyping introduces errors and wastes valuable time. BlackLine utilizes proprietary tools to rapidly configure interfaces to other systems via queries or extracts. These interfaces are placed on a schedule to run automatically at whatever frequency is required. GL Account Information can be imported from one or even many GLs if necessary.

BlackLine has successfully interfaced to virtually every major GL system available. In addition to account information, other types of information can be rapidly imported. Examples include balances from subsidiary ledgers, bank statements with balances and transactions, journals, activity summarizations, detailed line items, user information, currency exchange rates, and financial consolidation information.

To lessen a preparer’s work, information can be seamlessly exchanged to and from Microsoft Excel. No more retyping.
