Spot journal exceptions before close gets difficult.
Centinel brings detection, alert delivery, and close reporting together in one accounting assurance workflow within your ERP.
See every posting exception in a risk-ranked live queue.
As soon as an entry reaches your ERP, Centinel checks it against your rules. Failed checks appear in the queue with the rule, affected account, posting amount, and risk severity rating.
- Flag entries in real time as they post
- Risk levels: low, medium, high, critical
- Assign each item to a team member in one click
- Audit trail: detected, assigned, resolved, closed
| Account | Amount | Rule | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6100 - Opex | $142,800 | Threshold | Critical |
| 2100 - AP | $38,000 | Weekend post | High |
| 1000 - Cash | $5,400 | Round number | Medium |
| 5200 - COGS | $12,000 | New vendor | Low |
Set the checks that fit your close workflow.
Start with pre-built checks for common journal risks, including threshold breaches, weekend postings, round-number entries, manual overrides, and unusual account combinations. Create additional rules without code in minutes.
- Activate 40+ ready-made rules from the library
- Define amount thresholds and account combinations yourself
- Track rule changes for audit committees
Route each exception through the right channel.
Route by severity: critical exceptions go to the controller, high-risk items to the reviewer queue, and informational flags to Slack. Skip email chains and manual sorting.
Slack
Share exception summaries in finance channels, with links to each detail view.
Microsoft Teams
Send high-priority exceptions to your ERP support Teams channel with entry context.
Email digest
Give controllers a daily or threshold-based digest for consolidated review.
Webhook
Send exception events to a SIEM, ticketing system, or custom workflow via REST webhook.
Finish close packages in hours, not days.
When a period ends, Centinel creates a structured exception report covering entries reviewed, flagged items, resolution status, and open items awaiting sign-off. Send the package to your audit committee or external auditors.
Find exceptions as soon as they post.
