Financial Reporting in Data Warehouse: Artificial Intelligence Supported Trial Balance and Balance Sheet Reading

## Digitalization of Financial Reports Large holding companies or independent auditing companies receive financial documents in hundreds of different formats at year-ends or quarterly periods. Since the most critical document, Trial Balance**, comes in Excel or Complex PDF formats; It requires serious effort for data analysts to communicate this to the central **Data Warehouse (DWH)**. ### OCR or RayCasting Architecture? In classical image recognition (OCR) technologies, data errors are inevitable when lines shift. However, the **Anchor & RayCasting AI** capability we use in our **FinSpread** product scans the logical dependency of the data, not the visual coordinates. It filters the data with unerring accuracy by finding fixed anchors such as "Account Code", "Debit", "Credit". ### Direct Business Intelligence (BI) Integration The resulting trial balance breakdowns (Main Accounts and Sub-Accounts) are processed with the **SCD Type 1 & 2 (Slowly Changing Dimensions)** logic in classical DWH structures and instantly downloaded to the Data Warehouse. Then: - Consolidated income statements for C-Level managers - Department based expense analysis - Forecasting dashboards It flourishes in the Power BI environment in seconds. It saves time and eliminates costs.
