Insurance organizations should not have to choose between specialized insurance accounting and enterprise financial reporting. The best accounting architecture combines an insurance accounting platform with a proven general ledger. RemoteBooksOnline helps insurance agencies, MGAs, wholesalers and carriers integrate Premium Accounting with QBO, Xero, Sage and Workday. Premium Accounting becomes the insurance accounting subledger while your existing ERP or accounting system continues managing your corporate financial reporting. This approach eliminates duplicate data entry, reduces reconciliation work and creates a connected accounting environment across policy operations and finance.

What Is Insurance General Ledger Integration?

Insurance General Ledger Integration is the process of synchronizing insurance accounting transactions from Premium Accounting into a financial ERP or accounting platform. Rather than entering accounting transactions twice, insurance organizations maintain policy accounting inside Premium Accounting while financial transactions flow automatically into the general ledger.

Typical synchronized accounting activity includes:

  • tick Premium Transactions
  • tick Accounts Receivable
  • tick Accounts Payable
  • tick Agency Commissions
  • tick MGA Commissions
  • tick Taxes
  • tick Fees
  • tick Journal Entries
  • tick Financial Posting
  • tick Accounting Balances

Why Insurance Organizations Need a Subledger

Traditional accounting software was designed to produce financial statements.

It was not designed to manage:

  • tick Insurance Transactions
  • tick Premium Line Items
  • tick Policy Endorsements
  • tick Renewals
  • tick Cancellations
  • tick Agency Commissions
  • tick MGA Commissions

Premium Accounting manages insurance operations. Your ERP manages financial reporting. Together they create a complete accounting ecosystem.
