Sage Intacct support

Short answer

Sage Intacct suits UAE groups running multiple entities across DIFC, ADGM or the mainland once departmental and entity-level reporting outgrows Xero. Finbryn sets up dimension structures, multi-entity consolidations and the reconciliations that keep a group's close on schedule.

Why UAE groups move to Sage Intacct

A holding company with entities registered in DIFC, ADGM and on the Dubai mainland at once is where multi-entity or multi-department reporting tends to outgrow tracking categories stretched across a single Xero file. DIFC and ADGM both run on their own English common law framework, separate from mainland civil law, and each keeps its own registered-auditor list, so a group spanning both needs a chart of accounts built to keep the entities distinct while still consolidating.

What setup and support cover

We review the dimension structure against how the business reports by entity, department or project, then set up and reconcile multi-entity consolidations with intercompany eliminations handled correctly rather than left as a manual spreadsheet exercise. Bank, card and intercompany reconciliations run each period, and recurring journals and allocations get configured once rather than rebuilt monthly.

Working with an existing licence

The company holds and licenses the Sage Intacct platform directly. We work inside the instance under access granted and revocable at any time, which keeps the licence and the underlying data in the company's own control regardless of who does the bookkeeping.

Where this connects to statutory reporting

Each UAE entity inside a Sage Intacct group still needs its own IFRS financial statements as required by the Commercial Companies Law, and still needs an independent licensed auditor to sign off where a statutory audit applies to that entity's licence type. We prepare audit-ready books and the underlying financial statements; we do not perform the audit itself.

Questions

Frequently asked questions: Sage Intacct support

Can Sage Intacct support entities registered in both DIFC and ADGM under one group?

Yes, multi-entity consolidation and intercompany eliminations are core to the platform, and we set those up alongside the reconciliations that keep each entity's own books accurate under its own framework.

Do we need our own Sage Intacct licence?

Yes. You hold and license the platform directly; we work inside your instance under the access you grant.

Does Sage Intacct change how our statutory accounts get audited?

No. The platform changes how the numbers get produced, not who signs off on them. An independent licensed auditor still performs the statutory audit where one applies to your licence type.

Can you support a multi-entity Sage Intacct consolidation?

Yes, including intercompany eliminations and entity-level reconciliations rolled into one consolidated set of reports.

Do we need our own Sage Intacct license?

Yes, you own and license the platform. We work inside your instance.

How do we get started with sage Intacct support?

Getting started with sage Intacct support begins with a short review of your current records and software access. Once that is done we confirm scope and timing in writing, and ongoing work begins on the schedule agreed with you.

What if our records for sage Intacct support are not up to date?

If your records are behind, we scope a catch-up first so sage Intacct support starts from a clean, reconciled base. That catch-up is priced and timed separately from the ongoing engagement, so you always know what each part costs.
