For Controllers

Your CFO asks about the $340K variance at 7 AM.
It takes your team until 2 PM to find the answer.

CognixOne captures every variance explanation, every reconciliation decision, every audit response — so your team never rebuilds context from scratch.

The Close Reality

Every month-end, the same fire drill

Month-end close: Day 3

7:00 AM

CFO asks about the $340K revenue variance

7:15 AM

You know why—but finding the documentation takes 2 hours

9:30 AM

The analyst who handled this left 3 months ago

11:00 AM

Rebuild the analysis from scratch. Again.

2:00 PM

Finally explain it was an approved one-time adjustment from Q2

Context Evaporates

Last quarter's variance explanation? Gone. The logic behind that accrual? Lost in someone's email.

Tribal Knowledge

Only Maria knows why that intercompany entry exists. What happens when Maria's on vacation?

Audit Anxiety

Auditors ask for support. You know it exists somewhere. Finding it is another story.
