TOP 5 features you need to look for in software to be technology-ready for the new lease accounting standards

With the upcoming proposed Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board’s (IASB) accounting standards, the burning question is ‘Are organizations technology-ready for the upcoming changes?’

To ensure they have the information ready and organized to meet and comply with these standards, organizations need to start considering now how technology can help. But, what should organizations look for in software to ensure they meet the standards but also prepares them for any other changes that could occur?

You should be looking for a solution that:
  1. Creates and builds a unified database of contractual data for all your lease operations
  2. Provides extensible data collection forms that can accommodate business-specific attributes and potential new information required by changes in leasing accounting standards
  3. Enables the efficient interaction of multiple users throughout the data collection process to ensure data accuracy and integrity
  4. Provides complete visibility into the changes and decisions made during the process of data collection, ensuring traceability for compliance reporting
  5. Facilitates interaction with a modern, user-friendly interface that requires minimum training
