WhiteOak Business Analytics · Any ERP

The answer, before somebody has to ask twice.

Financial intelligence over the accounting system you already run. It reads your ERP, monitors every fund against the budget the board adopted, ranks what is worth your attention today, and builds the board packet from the figures rather than from a spreadsheet. No migration. No IT project. Thirty minutes.

Works with  nVision · Finance Manager · SchoolTool · WinCap  and CSV

The problem
The data is already there. Nobody can get at it.

Almost no district is short of financial data. What they are short of is a straight answer between now and Thursday’s board meeting — and the distance between the two is a business official rebuilding the same spreadsheet every month from exports nobody trusts.

The month-end
Four days to say where you are
Export, paste, reconcile, format. By the time the answer exists it describes a month that has closed, and the decision it was meant to inform has already been taken.
The question
“Are we going to be short in transportation?”
A reasonable question with no fast answer, because pace against budget is not a number the accounting system keeps — somebody has to work it out, and they only do it when asked.
The finding
Discovered in March, dated October
The order that went past the bidding threshold, the reserve spent on something it was not established for, the fund balance over the cap. All visible in the data the day they happened.
Why this and not a dashboard
A chart is not an answer. A ranked list is.

Business intelligence tools give a district a canvas and a query builder, and six months later somebody has built four dashboards that nobody opens. This arrives knowing what a New York school district is required to produce and what its business official is asked on a Tuesday.

A general BI tool, or the ERP’s own reporting
SetupA data warehouse, a modelling layer and a consultant. Months before the first useful screen.
ContentAn empty canvas. Somebody in the district has to know both the finance and the tool.
OutputCharts. A board packet still gets assembled by hand the weekend before.
ComplianceNot its job. §103, the tax cap and the reserve rules are somebody’s memory.
When it breaksThe figures stop matching the ERP and nobody can say which is right.
WhiteOak Business Analytics
SetupThirty minutes, a read of your ERP, and the first fund report is on screen.
ContentThirty-eight reports written for New York districts, already there on day one.
OutputThe board packet itself, in under thirty seconds, with the agenda checklist beside it.
ComplianceProcurement thresholds, the tax cap, reserve purpose and M/WBE, monitored as figures rather than remembered.
When it disagreesIt says so, names both sides, and shows the postings it read.
What it produces
Thirty-eight reports, and the six the State asks for.

Not a report builder. Reports — written for New York school district accounting, in the shape the reader already expects, from the district’s own figures.

How it gets your figures
It reads what you already run. Nothing moves.

Your ERP stays the system of record. This takes a read of it — a nightly file, a report export, or a read-only connection where your vendor allows one — maps it to the New York uniform chart of accounts, and answers from there. If the mapping is ambiguous it asks rather than guessing, once, and remembers.

NightlyA file drops and the figures move. Yesterday’s postings are on this morning’s screens.
Any formatFixed-width, CSV, Excel, or the export your ERP already produces for the auditor.
Mapped onceYour account structure to the uniform chart, reviewed with you, then automatic.

Honest about it
What it will not do.

This is the analytics product. It reads books somebody else keeps, and there are things that only the system doing the keeping can do.

Not a ledger
It cannot refuse an order
It will tell you the order went past the threshold. Refusing it at the moment somebody raises it is the ERP’s job, and that is a different product on this site.
Not a source
It is only as current as your export
A nightly file means this morning’s answer describes last night. Where your ERP allows a live read, it is live; where it does not, the screen says how old the figures are.
Not a rewrite
It does not fix a chart of accounts
If two buildings share one account code, no report can separate them. It will say so plainly rather than presenting a split it invented.
See it on your own figures

Send one export. Any month.

The fastest way to judge this is to give it a file you already produce and see whether the fund positions match what you know they are. If they do not, it names the difference, which is worth knowing either way.
