Business Engineering Corporation (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Masakazu Haneda; hereinafter "B-EN-G") and Money Forward, Inc. (Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and Group CEO: Yosuke Tsuji; hereinafter "Money Forward") will launch API integration between the cloud-based international accounting and ERP service "GLASIAOUS" and "Money Forward Cloud Consolidated Accounting" in late April 2026.
This collaboration integrates accounting data from overseas subsidiaries managed by GLASIAOUS with Money Forward Cloud Consolidated Accounting,seamlessly linking overseas financial data with headquarters’ consolidated financial reporting. By providing real-time visibility into the group’s financial position  and accelerating monthly closing, it supports advanced global management and rapid decision-making.

■Background
For Japanese companies operating globally, integrated management of business information across domestic and international locations is a crucial challenge for improving management transparency and enabling speedy decision-making.
Especially in overseas subsidiaries,there are many complex requirements unique to overseas operations , such as complying with local accounting standards, operating in a multi-currency and multi-language environment, and ensuring consistency of journal entries with the head office's accounting standards. Without an overseas-specific accounting infrastructure capable of handling these challenges, it becomes difficult to obtain timely and accurate local financial data in a timely and accurate manner, which hinders the proactive management of business risks across the entire group.
Against this backdrop, while the number of overseas branches adopting GLASIAOUS is increasing, many still spend a lot of time creating individual consolidation packages and manually transferring data when it comes to linking with the head office's consolidated financial statements.

■ Overview of the collaboration
Accounting data from overseas branches entered into GLASIAOUS is automatically imported into Money Forward Cloud Consolidated Accounting via API integration. This seamless data migration between systems is expected to yield the following benefits:

• GLASIAOUS allows for analysis of data from overseas locations across various axes, and this information can be utilized in consolidated financial statements.
• GLASIAOUS's internal control functions ensure data accuracy while seamlessly integrating.
• This eliminates the need for duplicate data entry and manual transcription, significantly reducing the workload for staff.
• The speed of consolidated financial reporting will improve, enabling earlier monthly closing and a more timely understanding of the financial situation.
