Balance sheet reconciliations for retail and eCommerce businesses

From prepaid inventory to multi-channel revenue, RecHound helps retail and eCommerce businesses keep their balance sheet clean — month after month.

The challenge

Why reconciliations are hard in retail

Prepaid inventory and supplier deposits

Retail businesses frequently pay suppliers in advance for stock that hasn't yet arrived. These prepayments sit on the balance sheet and need to be tracked, reconciled, and cleared against incoming goods.

Multi-channel revenue recognition

Online, wholesale, and retail sales channels create complexity in how revenue is recorded and recognised. Deferred revenue, gift cards, and returns add further balance sheet accounts that need monthly attention.

International entities and currencies

Growing retail brands often expand internationally, creating multi-currency balance sheet accounts and intercompany balances between domestic and overseas entities.
