With Ceviche

Allocations run through Ceviche and post to QuickBooks Online. Every allocation traces back to its source documents, with a full audit trail.

What Flybridge did not have to change

Nobody migrated a ledger

Ceviche sits between the AP tool that Flybridge already uses and the GL where Flybridge already closes its books. Ceviche posts the entries there.

The accounting team runs it themselves

Simple rule changes and reports are self-serve, and complex rule changes come back from our team within 48 hours.

The backup comes attached to the entry

Each allocation keeps its source document, the methodology that applied on the posting date, and the approver. Auditors get the backup, and nobody has to rebuild it.

Still splitting invoices in Excel?

Bring your hardest invoice to forty-five minutes with our CEO and see how Ceviche splits, approves and posts one like it. After an NDA, your team runs a two-week sandbox on your own data, ending in a review call.
