Insurance General Ledger Integration
Schedule an Integration ConsultationLearn About Premium Accounting
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:
Premium Transactions
Accounts Receivable
Accounts Payable
Agency Commissions
MGA Commissions
Taxes
Fees
Journal Entries
Financial Posting
Accounting Balances
