All the accounting you’d expect on Salesforce. Plus the ERP to run the rest of your business.
Accounting Seed puts accounting on Salesforce. GoldFinch does that too, with general ledger, AP, AR, multi-entity consolidation, and AI invoice automation. It also runs the inventory, purchasing, projects, and production that create your financial transactions in the first place.
One platform, one set of data, no reconciliation between systems.

Accounting designed by people who understand operations.
One Ledger, Fed by the Business
In GoldFinch, the transactions that move money start in the same system as the ledger. Receipts, shipments, production runs, and project milestones post their accounting entries directly, including inventory valuation, COGS, and WIP.
Inventory is costed on a FIFO basis in real time, so margins and inventory value are accurate the moment a transaction posts, not after a period-end adjustment.
Finance closes from the same data that operations runs on, so there is nothing to reconcile between systems.
Multi-Entity and Consolidated Reporting
Run multiple companies, locations, and departments on one platform. Book intercompany transactions, eliminate them, and consolidate across entities and currencies.
Report at the department, location, or entity level, then roll everything up.
“We were looking for an accounting solution capable of producing detailed reporting at the department, location, and entity levels, while also supporting combined and consolidated reporting.”
Ian Teixeira, professional services organization
AP That Already Knows Your Purchase Orders
GoldFinch AI Invoice Automation extracts invoice data, validates the vendor against the purchase order and what was actually received, and creates draft transactions. Exceptions route for review.
Because purchasing and receiving live in GoldFinch, the match happens in one system instead of across an integration.
Fast, Flexible Financial Reporting
Run financial statements in seconds, at any time, without closing the period. Drill from any balance to the transaction behind it.
Combine financial and operational data in the same Salesforce report, such as revenue by product line alongside open orders.
“Finance reports can be ran in a few seconds and accounting periods do not need to be closed to run balance sheets.”
Ryan Holt, former Accounting Seed customer
Design Your Team Will Actually Use
GoldFinch screens are built around how finance and operations teams work, not around database tables.
Customers consistently call out how intuitive the system is and how quickly teams get up to speed.

Professional Services
Consulting firms, IT services providers, agencies, and Salesforce partners already run clients and projects on Salesforce. GoldFinch adds time entry, project billing, AR, AP, and multi-entity accounting on the same records, so a won opportunity flows to a project, an invoice, and the ledger without re-entry.

Manufacturing
From make-to-stock to project-based and configure-to-order production, GoldFinch connects BOMs, work orders, supply planning, and WIP accounting on one platform.
