MindRuntime Base Advisory
The ledger can agree while the application is still wrong.
We audit accounting automation tools the way a working-paper file is built: from a source document, through the posting rule, into the account that a controller has to sign. The practice sits at Telok Datai and travels for fieldwork on the peninsula.

Primary engagement
Posting-rule and journal integrity audit
Most of the work we are asked to do starts here. A finance lead has a tool that invoices, matches the bank, and files e-Invoice, and something in the control accounts no longer makes sense. We export the rules, sample the journals, and write down what the application actually did — not what the implementation workshop said it would do.
The output is an observation log, a map of rules that drifted, and a session with your implementer if you want the findings turned into configuration changes. Fees are quoted after a scoping call; a typical peninsula visit for this engagement starts around RM 14,800.

Related work from the same desk
e-Invoice and tax-code mapping review
LHDN e-Invoice fields, SST codes, and exemption flags are checked against what the application actually transmits and what the books record.
Bank-feed and auto-match reconciliation audit
We test whether bank feeds, matching rules, and uncleared items still produce a bank reconciliation a controller can sign.
Segregation of duties in automated posting
When the application posts the journal, we check who can change the rule, who can approve the exception, and who can hide the trail.
Pre-go-live and post-go-live financial assurance
Before or just after a new accounting tool goes live, we test opening balances, cutover journals, and the first month of automated postings.
Accounting-tool due diligence before you buy
A structured reading of how a candidate application would treat your chart, tax, and audit trail — before the licence is signed.
From people who sat through the fieldwork
Notes left after the file was closed
“They did not arrive with a dashboard. They arrived with our posting export and a list of deposits that had started hitting revenue after an upgrade we had clicked through on a Sunday.”
Finance manager, hospitality group, Langkawi
“The e-Invoice mapping workbook was the first document our tax agent did not have to rebuild. We used it for the next two quarterly reviews.”
Group accountant, trading company, Butterworth
“I wanted someone who would sit with AutoCount and tell me, in ordinary language, which rules I should not let the vendor change without me in the room.”

How an engagement starts
A scoping call, then a written brief
Write to the Langkawi desk with the tool you use, the legal entities in scope, and the month that worries you. We reply with a brief, a fee, and whether we need to be on site. There is no online checkout; work begins when you accept the brief in writing.
