Fund accounting ERP's auto-use of plug accounts for unbalanced journal entries leads to inaccurate expense coding and no systematic process to correct them.

Existing ERPs lack controls to prevent or flag persistent use of plug accounts, and do not enforce reconciliation of actual balancing fields.

Mandatory reclassification workflow with approval routing
Plug account aging report by accounting field dimensions
Auto-suggested offset fields based on historical corrections

Target Users: Fund accountants and controllers at nonprofits, government agencies, or any organization using fund accounting ERPs (e.g., Blackbaud, MIP) with 10-500 employees.

Revenue Model: $500/month base subscription for first 10 users, then $20/month per additional user; enterprise tier with custom rules $2,000/month.
