Automated Commission GL Reconciliation
Each close, WebRun pulls accrued commission totals from QuotaPath, reads the matching commission expense and accrual accounts in NetSuite, compares them line by line, and posts finance a short Slack list of any variances so the GL ties out before the books are locked.
How do I reconcile accrued commissions to the general ledger each close?
Each close, WebRun pulls the period's accrued commissions from QuotaPath, reads the commission expense and accrual balances in NetSuite, and compares them line by line. It posts finance a short Slack summary listing every variance largest first, so the commission GL ties out before the books lock, with no manual cross-checking.
- Commission accruals tie to the GL before books lock
- Variances surface largest first, not buried in a spreadsheet
- Read-only on both sides, so no ledger entry changes on its own

Questions, answered
Will it post journal entries in NetSuite?
No. WebRun only reads the commission accounts in NetSuite. It compares them to QuotaPath and posts an internal Slack summary, and never creates or edits a journal entry in the ledger.
What counts as a variance worth flagging?
Any line where the QuotaPath accrual and the NetSuite balance differ. WebRun lists those largest first and leaves the clean lines noted, so your team focuses only on what does not tie out.
Does it change any commission figures?
No. It is read-only on both sides. WebRun surfaces the difference for a human to investigate and correct, and never adjusts an accrual or a GL balance itself.
