ITI Deferred Expense Module

The Infinium Payables Ledger Application is an excellent system for recording invoices, incurring expenses, making payments, and reporting the company’s liabilities.  Despite all the robust functionality found in the Infinium PL application, it falls short in providing a clean and simple way to track and book deferred expenses.  

Consider a situation where a company receives an invoice which needs to be recorded in the system.  The PL system is going to book 100% of the expense to the current period.   But sometimes, the company would prefer that the expense associated to the invoice be spread out over several periods or even deferred until a later period.  This is where the ITI Deferred Expense Module can help. 

Most companies manage all their deferred expenses through a spreadsheet or manual process.  These methods rarely interface directly into Infinium and are not capable of automatically creating the Journal Entry for each month’s deferred expenses.  They also tend to be time consuming and cumbersome.  To help with this problem ITI has developed a module that interfaces directly with the Infinium PL and GL systems. 

ITI’s Deferred Expense Module is a subsystem to the Payables Ledger system that allows the user to defer the expense associated to a new invoice.  Some attributes of the system include:   

  • Allows the user to setup multiple deferred asset accounts.
  • Allows the user to specify the Year and Period to begin applying the deferred expense.
  • Allows the user to specify the number of periods the deferred expenses will be applied.
  • Users can set up a minimum dollar amount that must be met in order to be eligible for expense deferral.
  • Users have full walkback capability from the General Ledger system.    
  • Users can set up and make changes to the expense detail outside of Payables.
  • System interfaces directly to the Infinium GL and will build the month end deferred expense journal entry. 
  • Includes reporting for:   
  1. New expenses
  2. Detail on deferred expenses
  3. Amortization schedule
  4. Forecasting
