MONITORING + ADJUSTMENTS

From trial balances to TP adjustments and accounting entries.

Upload trial-balance-level forecasts and actuals, and provide your TP policy. Integral automatically calculates profit-level indicators, margins, expense measures and variances, then calculates the TP adjustment under your policy. Full supporting documentation and accounting entries bring the calculation through to implementation.

Operational TP program workflow: upload forecasts, actuals and policy; calculate PLIs and variances; calculate the TP adjustment; generate support and accounting entries.
WHAT THIS CHANGES FOR YOUR TEAM
  • Automatic PLIs and forecast-to-actual variances
  • TP adjustments calculated from your policy
  • Full supporting documentation for review
  • Accounting entries ready for your finance team
OPERATIONAL TP IN DETAIL

From individual tasks to
a connected capability.

01

Upload trial balances. Get calculated results.

Bring in forecast and actual data at trial-balance level. Integral automatically calculates profit-level indicators (PLIs), including margins and expense-based measures, and identifies variances between forecast and actual performance. Review the results alongside the underlying account information.

A quarterly trial balance loaded for an entity, with forecast against actual and the resulting variance for operating margin, operating expense to revenue, revenue and full cost markup.
02

Your TP policy drives the adjustment

Provide your TP policy and Integral automatically calculates the TP adjustment based on that policy. Compare outcomes with the relevant targets and review the inputs, assumptions and calculation logic supporting periodic or year-end adjustments.

The policy applied to a quarter — full cost plus 6%, a target operating margin range and the actual result — beside the required TP adjustment calculated from actual and target operating profit.
03

Supporting documentation and accounting entries

Generate full supporting documentation and accounting entries for the calculated TP adjustment. Your tax and finance teams can review the financial inputs, policy application and calculation trail together, then approve the documentation and entries for implementation.

Generated adjustment support — calculation memo, trial balance extract and policy reference — beside the intercompany receivable and TP adjustment income entries awaiting Finance approval.
