FinQuery Automated Payment Schedule Change Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens FinQuery and checks for any lease modifications that changed a payment schedule since the last run. It compares old and new amounts, notes the remeasurement trigger, and alerts your accounting team in Slack so the updated journal entries can be prepared before the next close.

In short

How can I get automatic alerts when a lease payment schedule changes in FinQuery?

WebRun checks the FinQuery modifications log every morning for payment schedule changes on any lease, captures old and new amounts plus remeasurement triggers, and posts a concise Slack alert to your accounting team. This means close-day surprises from untracked modifications are caught the same day they occur.

  • Payment schedule changes caught the same morning they are recorded
  • Remeasurement triggers flagged before the next journal entry run
  • No modified lease slips through to create a close-day surprise

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it update journal entries automatically?

No. WebRun reads FinQuery and surfaces the changes to your team in Slack. Posting or booking any journal entry is left for your accountants to review and approve in FinQuery.

How does it know what changed?

It reads the FinQuery modifications log each morning and compares the current payment schedule to the prior run, so only net-new changes are reported and there are no repeated alerts.

What counts as a material change worth flagging?

You set the threshold during setup. By default, any change to a lease with a remaining liability above your defined amount is flagged for priority review alongside the standard summary.

Put this on autopilot.
