Questions about the finance pod
Something missing? Write to admin@frugalpod.com and a person will reply.
Can the finance pod move money?
Not on its own. It prepares payment runs, journal entries and filings, and every one waits for your approval.
Does it replace our accountant?
No. It does the matching, checking and preparation, so your accountant reviews finished work instead of raw data.
Is there an audit trail?
Yes. Every match, change and approval is logged with what happened, when and why.
