Designed for investment managers and reporting teams who receive periodic financial packets from multiple operators and need aggregated reporting without being locked to each partner’s format or methodology.
Solutions
For investment managers
Portfolio reporting across all of your operators' books.
If you provide investor reports across multiple operating partners, you know the drill:
Data arrives in different formats, on varying schedules, with diverging charts of accounts. Every period, you translate it and the results still require time-consuming audit.
Credence ingests financial packets into one normalized layer so you can produce portfolio- and fund-level reporting from a single source, with support for every number.
Credence normalizes all of your partners' data. Your team amends reports with business commentary and variance guidance.
The problem
Distributed management breaks reporting.
The aggregation pipeline is re-invented every period.
Institutional CRE management is distributed. The investment manager is often beholden to the accounting systems their operating partners use, with limited visibility into or influence over the data pipeline. Partners provide periodic reports in different formats, classified into different charts of accounts, on unreliable schedules. Assembling a portfolio view requires manual transformation every single period. This connect-the-dots work steals time from your team and still results in numbers without a defensible provenance.
What Credence delivers
One pipeline from partner files to defensible rollups.

GL exports and report packets from your partners — in whatever format they come (Yardi, MRI, QuickBooks, Excel, etc.).

Credence maps operator charts of accounts to one normalized, industry standard COA. You amend the map as needed.
Report
Portfolio- and fund-level reports generated automatically. You focus on review, not rework.
Trace
Clear audit trail from any aggregated figure back to its source. Surface inconsistencies before investor materials go out.

Thinking ahead
Start with ingestion, grow into native feeds.
As your relationships with operating partners grow, Credence grows with you. Operating partners who adopt the full Credence accounting platform feed your aggregation layer directly with no export, no redundant mapping, and no reconciliation between systems.
Start with low friction and expand when the organization is ready. The ingestion layer is valuable on its own and gets stronger as more of the stack lives on Credence. Expanding the workflow aligns the interests of operators and property managers, so capital events, rent rolls, and contracts roll right into the full reporting stack.

We're here to help.
Your questions, answered.
No. You ingest what partners already send: GL exports, report packets, spreadsheets.
Normalization and traceability apply to whatever you receive today.
When a partner runs operations on Credence, you can forego all export-and-map work.
You set the rhythm to match your reporting calendar. The point is repeatable ingest
each period so portfolio rollups are systematic, not a one-off project.
Credence maintains the industry best practice COA and automatically maps your COAs upon first ingestion.
At the end of the day, your team owns the mapping rules. When a partner’s export changes,
you update mappings in one place so portfolio reporting stays consistent.
Aggregated fund and portfolio figures retain pointers to the source financial lines that fed them.
When an LP asks “where did this number come from?”, you answer from the system rather than
from a folder full of saved files.
