Finance teams running on stitched-together spreadsheets, a legacy ledger and a billing tool that was never designed for recurring revenue eventually hit a wall: month-end takes ten days, auditors flag the same control gaps every year, and the CFO can't get a clean consolidated P&L without three analysts re-keying journals. This page is for finance and operations leaders at SMBs scaling past their first ERP and at enterprises modernising legacy GL, billing and revenue platforms across multiple entities and geographies.
Redian builds and implements accounting, billing, subscription and revenue management systems that close the books faster, bill accurately at scale, and stand up to statutory audit in India, the UK, the US, the UAE and across African markets. We work across Zoho Finance, Odoo, NetSuite-class custom builds and bespoke ledgers — whichever fits your scale, regulatory footprint and existing stack.
What it does
A modern finance platform built with Redian does four things that spreadsheets and entry-level tools cannot:
- Runs a true double-entry general ledger across multiple legal entities, currencies and chart-of-accounts variants, with intercompany eliminations handled at consolidation rather than by manual journals.
- Bills customers correctly the first time — one-time invoices, recurring subscriptions, usage-metered billing, milestone-based project billing and hybrid contracts that combine all four.
- Recognises revenue in line with IFRS 15 / ASC 606 (or local GAAP equivalents), with performance-obligation schedules generated automatically from contract terms rather than reverse-engineered at quarter-end.
- Closes the books on a defined timetable — sub-ledger cut-offs, accruals, FX revaluation, intercompany, consolidation and management reporting running as a controlled workflow, not a fire drill.
Where it fits
We deliver across three buyer profiles. Growing SMBs outgrowing Tally, QuickBooks or spreadsheet-based finance, typically at 50–500 staff and INR 20-500 crore (or USD 5–60M) turnover, who need a real ERP without an 18-month NetSuite programme. Mid-market and enterprise groups with 3–30 legal entities across geographies, where the pain is consolidation, intercompany and statutory reporting in multiple jurisdictions. Subscription and SaaS businesses where billing is the product — usage metering, proration, mid-cycle upgrades, dunning, revenue recognition and SaaS metrics (MRR, ARR, churn, LTV) need to reconcile to the GL without manual bridges.
Our delivery hubs in Noida, Nairobi, Dubai, London and New York let us implement against local statutory rules — GST and TDS in India, VAT in the UK and UAE, sales tax in the US, withholding and digital service taxes across African markets.
Core modules we deliver
- General ledger and multi-entity consolidation — chart of accounts design, multi-currency, multi-book (statutory vs management), intercompany, automated FX revaluation, parallel ledgers for IFRS and local GAAP.
- Accounts receivable and collections — credit limits, dunning workflows, automated reminders, payment gateway and bank integration, customer portals, ageing analytics. Where field collections matter — common in lending, insurance premium and MFI portfolios — we tie AR back into our loan management and field service workflows.
- Accounts payable and procurement — three-way match (PO, GRN, invoice), vendor portals, OCR-driven invoice capture, approval matrices, payment runs across SWIFT, SEPA, ACH, UPI and local rails.
- Subscription and recurring billing — plan and pricing catalogue, proration, dunning, mid-cycle changes, usage ingestion from product telemetry, tax engine integration for multi-jurisdiction billing.
- Revenue recognition — ASC 606 / IFRS 15 performance-obligation tracking, deferred revenue schedules, contract modification handling, audit-ready disclosures.
- Statutory and tax compliance — GST returns and e-invoicing, TDS, VAT, corporate tax filings, country-by-country reporting where applicable.
- Reporting and analytics — board-ready P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, variance, cohort and SaaS metrics, with drill-through from dashboards back to source journal.
Why Redian
We are CMMI Level 3 Appraised and ISO certified, with controlled delivery practices that auditors recognise — segregation of duties in design, change-control evidence, and traceable requirements through to test. That matters when your finance platform sits inside a SOX, IFRS or RBI/IRDAI audit perimeter.
As an Advanced Zoho Partner since 2017 we deliver Zoho Books, Zoho Billing and Zoho Inventory implementations end-to-end — but we are platform-honest. When Zoho is the wrong fit, we build on Odoo or deliver a custom finance platform on a modern stack. Our adjacent depth in core banking, insurance and digital transformation means the finance system we deliver actually integrates with the operational systems around it — policy admin, loan servicing, CRM, field service and HR — rather than living as another island.
Working with Redian
Most engagements start with a 2–4 week current-state review covering chart of accounts, close calendar, billing model and integration map, ending with a shortlisted platform and a phased implementation plan. From there we run the build with a blended onshore-offshore team or as a Global Capability Centre extension of your finance technology group.
If you are scoping a finance modernisation, a billing platform replacement, or a multi-entity consolidation programme, get in touch or review relevant case studies to see how comparable programmes have run.
