Lease-In Accounting (1T6)

Lease contracts describe contractual agreements between two partners: the lessor and the lessee. The lessor is the owner of an asset, whereas the lessee has a right to use this asset during the period agreed in the lease contract. For the use of the asset, the lessee must pay lease payments, which are agreed in the lease contract.

This scope item helps you standardize and automate your lease-in credit contract management activities for real estate, as well as for machinery, equipment, vehicles, computer hardware.

You can easily create new contracts, execute periodic postings for existing contracts, and execute valuation postings for existing contracts.

You can change the supplier of an existing contract and run reports of your existing contracts as part of your daily business.

You can create reminder rules for every contract, for example to check the contract conditions, the contract term, or the renewal options, helping you to save time and effort and free up capacity for more strategic tasks.

Leveraging the reporting functions enables you to make better and more informed lease management decisions.
