For in-house finance teams

Pile in.
Form out.

Run more than one entity? Each company submits its own pile and gets its own per-supplier workbooks and its own chart of accounts, reviewed before it posts to Xero or QuickBooks.

One login, many sets of books

A holding company and its subsidiaries, kept apart.

In-house teams rarely run one company. They run a group. Pileform keeps each entity on its own books, from one login: switch company, and the chart of accounts, suppliers, and history all switch with it.

Illustrative example, not a real customer.
Meridian Holdings Ltd
The group. Switch into any company below from the same login.

Meridian Trading
  • Submits its quarter of receipts and invoices as one file
  • Reconciled and grouped by supplier, VAT per line

Its own per-supplier workbooks, posted to its chart of accounts

Meridian Logistics
  • Submits its own pile, in its own currencies and languages
  • Flagged items reviewed by whoever keeps its books

Its own per-supplier workbooks, kept separate from the rest

Meridian Property
  • Submits its statements and supplier bills
  • Bank lines extracted and posted double-entry

Its own chart of accounts, its own audit trail

Billing is shared across the group, on one account. The books are not: each company’s data, suppliers, and posting history stay scoped to that company.

Audit, control & retention

Built for the standard your group is held to.

The questions an auditor or a regulator asks of a group, and how Pileform has each answer ready, per entity.

Retention that matches the law

Records are kept for the statutory period, country-aware: 10 years for Germany, France, and Italy, 6 for Cyprus, the UK, and Ireland, and so on. Early deletion of a job on request.

Data stays in the EU

Every document and workbook is processed and stored in the EU (Frankfurt). Encrypted in transit and at rest. Your documents are never used to train any model.

A chart of accounts per company

Each entity keeps its own chart of accounts, its own suppliers, and its own categorisation rules. Nothing bleeds from one company’s books into another’s.

Nothing posts unreviewed

Every proposed entry waits in a review queue until someone confirms it. Each posting is logged, what suggested it, the confidence, and who approved it, for a full audit trail.

Computed, never guessed

Every figure is calculated by code, not estimated. Inferred rates are flagged yellow, impossible ones red, and cash rounding shows in its own column. Uncertainty is surfaced, never silently filled.

The evidence travels with the file

Each row links to its original document, embedded inside the workbook. When the question comes, the proof is in the file, not behind a login that may be gone by then.
