Each subsidiary runs its own chart of accounts. BrizoConsol builds a common group structure from them — and maps every entity's accounts to it automatically.
A common chart of accounts (CCOA) is the standardized account structure that sits at the group level. Every number in your consolidated P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cashflow traces back to it. Without it, there is no consistent basis for consolidation.
In BrizoConsol, the CCOA is that foundation. Each subsidiary keeps its own chart of accounts in its own accounting software — Xero, QuickBooks, MYOB, Zoho Books, or Excel. Their accounts are mapped to the group CCOA. The consolidation engine works from the group structure only.
"Sales Revenue" in one entity is "Turnover" in another and "Revenue from Operations" in a third. Without a mapping layer, there is no way to consolidate them consistently.
Each accounting software ships with its own default chart of accounts. Entities customise further. No two entities look the same.
Mapping 50–200 accounts per entity by hand, across 3–10 entities, is a significant setup burden — and any change means revisiting the mapping.
If a subsidiary adds a new account and nobody notices, that account is missing from the consolidated report — with no warning.
BrizoConsol does not impose a default group chart of accounts. You build the one that fits your group — and there are three ways to get there fast.
Pick one entity's chart of accounts as the starting point for the group structure. Rename, restructure, and add accounts as needed. Works well when one entity's setup is already close to what the group needs.
BrizoMap reads account names across all your connected entities and generates a group chart of accounts. Review and adjust before finalising. The fastest way to go from zero to a working group structure. AI results should be reviewed before use.
Create the group CCOA manually — full control over account codes, names, and hierarchy. The right choice for groups with a specific reporting structure they want to enforce.
Once your group CCOA is set up, you map each entity's accounts to it. Each entity account points to one group account. From that point, every import from that entity — every month, every period — is translated into the group structure automatically.
Once an account is mapped, the mapping is remembered. Re-uploads, new periods, and new data imports apply the same mapping — no manual work on repeat.
When a subsidiary adds a new account with no mapping, BrizoConsol flags it. Nothing disappears from the consolidated report without a warning.
Reports show a Missing Chart of Accounts notice for any entity with unmapped accounts — so nothing is included in the consolidation until it is correctly mapped.
BrizoMap handles two tasks at once: it maps each entity's accounts to the group CCOA, and it classifies accounts into the correct financial sections and account types. AI results are flagged for review where confidence is low.
One mapping per entity. Consistent, traceable consolidation every period after that.
Add a new entity — connect its accounting software, run BrizoMap, confirm any flagged accounts. Mapped and consolidating in minutes, not days.
Every unmapped account is visible. Reports flag missing mappings explicitly. No account disappears from the consolidation without a warning.
Mappings are fixed and saved. The same account in the same entity maps to the same group account every period — no drift, no manual correction.

AI generates the group structure from your entities' accounts. BrizoMap maps entity accounts to it automatically — and flags anything that needs review.
