Expense allocation, sophisticated lease management, and our commission engine, along with detailed cash audit tools, are essential components that form the backbone of ChainDrive’s Accounting Software for retail businesses. This powerful system not only streamlines financial processes but also enables you to gain deep insights into every transaction across your retail chain.

Our flexible, tri-dimensional GL provides the ability to create rules for expense allocation that can be performed on a one-off or even monthly basis. This powerful allocation module can reallocate expenses to stores or departments based on sales, square footage or pre-defined percentage, for precise P&L reporting.
Our sophisticated lease management system centralizes lease agreements for all your stores, sending timely alerts when leases are up for renewal. The POS system uses a powerful formula generator to calculate rent and automatically posts monthly rent invoices to the General Ledger (GL). Additionally, advanced liability reporting can project up to twelve years ahead, empowering you to plan and budget with precision.
With ChainDrive's integrated lease management, you gain full visibility into lease terms, costs, and renewal dates, all in one centralized location. This streamlined approach reduces administrative burden, minimizes lease-related errors, and ensures your retail business stays on top of critical financial obligations.
Our cash audit’s complete drill-down capability lets you view detail down to an individual invoice. With the click of a button, you can post daily sales, deposits and petty cash expenses from POS to the GL. All related outstanding deposits are then generated in bank reconciliation, using an automated module to import transaction files from the internet. This fully integrated point of sale software functionality greatly reduces time consuming tasks and eliminates the need for manual information processing that can lead to costly errors.
Additionally, ChainDrive’s Retail POS Cash Audit ensures greater accuracy and transparency in your cash handling processes. By automating audit trails and providing real-time visibility into your financial data, it helps you proactively identify discrepancies and ensure compliance. This not only improves financial control but also boosts overall operational efficiency, allowing you to focus on growing your business rather than managing administrative tasks.
ChainDrive’s Automatic Invoice Matching eliminates the time-consuming work and errors of manually verifying and matching invoices to purchase orders. It automatically matches invoices to purchase orders and receiving documents, streamlining the payment process for greater accuracy and efficiency.
By automating invoice matching, ChainDrive reduces discrepancies, minimizes manual data entry, and accelerates the approval process. Retailers can focus on higher-value tasks while ensuring that payments are processed accurately and on time, improving cash flow management and supplier relationships.
Our best-in-class accounting software features a powerful, query-based commissions and bonus engine, designed to manage any variation of complex sales incentives, commissions, bonuses, and spiffs. With fixed or scaled rates, you can easily create personal, store, and/or department-specific targets and budgets. Employee paycards are automatically generated by compiling hours clocked at POS, and the data is seamlessly exported to your external payroll provider.
Enhanced Performance and Seamless Integration - This robust commissions engine not only simplifies the process of tracking and calculating sales incentives but also integrates smoothly with other retail operations. By automating commission and bonus calculations, it reduces manual errors and administrative overhead, allowing your team to focus on driving sales performance. Whether you're handling large teams or multiple locations, ChainDrive’s commissions engine ensures streamlined operations and accurate, timely payouts.
