Franchises and chains
Reporting and benchmarking for franchises and chains
See which locations are performing well, where margins differ and where to follow up. Sumledger brings accounting data from local systems into a shared reporting model â even when locations do not share ownership.
From comparable numbers to practical follow-up
Bring the numbers together
Connect local accounting systems where integrations are supported. Agree on data access and which companies or dimensions represent each location.
Compare on a consistent basis
Use shared report definitions, account mapping and periods to compare revenue, margins and cost levels.
Investigate differences and follow up
Identify the locations and accounts behind differences. Drill into transactions where data is available and use the findings in discussions with local teams.
View entity results side by side
This product view shows company results compared using demo data. The same reporting need applies when chain management investigates differences between locations.
Useful benchmarking starts with a shared basis
Compare locations with relevant operating conditions. Align accounting principles, periods, account mapping and KPI definitions before using results for rankings or targets. Agree on data access with each entity. Benchmarking here means comparing the locations you have access to, not an external industry average.
