Keep consolidation in the ledger

Oracle’s general ledger handles simpler consolidations; its purpose-built product, Financial Consolidation and Close, is part of Oracle Fusion Cloud EPM. Light consolidates entities and currencies as transactions post, in the same ledger.

    Issue cards from the ledger

    Oracle Expenses works with cards from your bank or card issuer. Light issues corporate and virtual cards itself, and spend posts to the same ledger as everything else.

  2. 02

    Implement with the Light team

    Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP is implemented by Oracle Consulting or a partner system integrator, as a separate services engagement. Light’s team moves your finance setup in weeks, with an account manager included.
