01
The problem
A large manufacturing and construction materials company running Epicor ERP faced manual journal entries every period, Excel-based revenue recognition calculations, and hours of workarounds just to bridge Epicor's project costing data to proper ASC 606 treatment. None of it left an audit trail from source data to posted entry.

What Loopfour automated
- 1Pulls project cost data directly from Epicor
- 2Applies ASC 606 recognition rules using percentage-of-completion or input method
- 3Generates journal entries by period
- 4Sends entries for review via Slack or email to the CFO
- 5Posts approved entries to the GL
- 6Reconciles actuals against recognized revenue, with a variance report and alerts
Average versus standard costing, and make-to-order versus make-to-stock, stay exactly where they are in Epicor. The finance layer automates on top, not instead of.

Why it matters for controllers
Every entry carries a chain: source data, calculation, approval, posting. More projects doesn't mean more spreadsheets, and it doesn't mean more accountants either.
