Core Feature

Inter-Company Transactions, Handled Automatically.

Record transactions between your entities and let EmLedger handle the rest. Linked entries, automatic elimination in consolidation, and inter-company balance verification built in.

The Problem

Inter-Company Accounting is Painful

When your entities do business with each other, traditional accounting software makes it a nightmare.

Double Entry in Separate Systems

Log into Entity A to record the invoice. Log into Entity B to record the bill. Hope the amounts match. Repeat endlessly.

Manual Elimination Errors

Forgetting to eliminate an inter-company sale inflates consolidated revenue. One missed entry and your financials are wrong.

Unbalanced Inter-Company Accounts

Entity A says Entity B owes $50,000. Entity B says it owes $47,500. Finding the discrepancy takes hours.

Audit Risk

Auditors scrutinize inter-company transactions closely. Without a clear trail, you spend weeks gathering documentation.

FAQ

Inter-Company Questions

What are inter-company transactions?
Inter-company transactions occur when one entity in your portfolio does business with another entity you also own. For example, a holding company loaning money to a subsidiary, or one LLC invoicing another LLC for shared services. These must be tracked and eliminated in consolidated reports.
How does EmLedger track inter-company transactions?
When you record a transaction between two of your entities, EmLedger automatically tags it as inter-company. Both sides of the transaction (the receivable and payable) are linked. This makes it easy to verify balances and ensures automatic elimination during consolidation.
What does inter-company elimination mean?
Elimination removes inter-company transactions from consolidated financial statements so they reflect only external activity. If Entity A sells $10,000 to Entity B, that revenue and expense are eliminated in the consolidated P&L because no money actually entered or left your portfolio.
Can I see inter-company balances at a glance?
Yes. EmLedger provides an inter-company balance report showing all receivables and payables between your entities. You can see which entities owe each other money and verify that inter-company accounts are in balance.
Does EmLedger handle inter-company loans?
Yes. Record inter-company loans with proper accounting on both sides - the lending entity records a receivable and the borrowing entity records a payable. Interest accruals can be automated, and everything eliminates properly in consolidated reports.
How do management fees between entities work?
Record management fees as inter-company invoices. The parent entity records revenue, the subsidiary records an expense. EmLedger links both sides automatically and eliminates them in consolidated reporting. You maintain proper books for each entity while getting clean consolidated financials.
