Sage Intacct support

Short answer

Sage Intacct suits UK companies running multiple entities or departments that have moved past Sage 50 or Xero. Finbryn sets up dimension structures, multi-entity consolidations and the recurring reconciliations that keep a UK group's close on schedule alongside its FRS 102 or UK-adopted IFRS reporting.

Why UK groups move to Sage Intacct

Sage has a long history in the UK market, and Sage Intacct is where multi-entity or multi-department companies land once departmental and location-level reporting outgrows Sage 50 or a Xero file stretched across tracking categories. It suits property groups, franchise operators and professional services firms running several branches or entities under one UK parent.

What setup and support cover

We review the dimension structure against how the business reports by department, location or class, 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, recurring journals and allocations get configured once rather than rebuilt monthly, and custom reports get built for the figures management actually reviews at month end.

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 entirely in the company's control regardless of who does the bookkeeping.

Where this connects to statutory reporting

A UK entity inside a Sage Intacct group still needs its own FRS 102 or FRS 105 statutory accounts filed at Companies House, so the dimension structure and chart of accounts get built to support that local filing alongside group consolidation, particularly with FRS 102's revenue and lease accounting changes applying to periods starting on or after 1 January 2026.

Questions

Frequently asked questions: Sage Intacct support

Can Sage Intacct support a UK group with entities in more than one country?

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.

Do we need to buy 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 FRS 102 statutory accounts get prepared?

No, the platform changes how the numbers get produced, not the standard they are reported under; FRS 102 or FRS 105 still governs the entity's own statutory accounts.

Can you configure Sage Intacct's dimensions for department or location reporting?

Yes, dimension setup for department, location, project or class is part of configuration support, built around the reporting splits you actually need rather than every dimension Sage Intacct offers, since an overbuilt dimension structure is as hard to use as none at all.

Do you support the transition period where old and new systems run in parallel?

Yes, we support a defined parallel period so figures can be checked against each other before fully cutting over, though we recommend keeping that overlap short, since an extended dual-running period increases the risk of a transaction being entered twice or missed entirely.

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.
