Why connect Pennylane
Pennylane is where your accounting lives. It is not where you build a three-year plan, run a hiring scenario or reforecast against budget. That work usually ends up in a throwaway spreadsheet, rebuilt every month from a fresh export.
Layerz closes that loop. Your Pennylane actuals land in a model that persists: assumptions stay separate from data, the structure is reusable, and every month you sync the latest figures instead of starting over.
What you get
- Actuals vs budget in one model. Your Pennylane figures sit next to your plan, on the same structure.
- Reforecast in minutes. Sync the month, adjust the forward assumptions, done.
- Scenarios that hold. Branch a change without touching your base or breaking the links.
- Audit-ready Excel. Export a defensible workbook any time. Never paywalled.
Honest limits
- Layerz reads from Pennylane. It does not write back to your books.
- Mapping is set up once per model. New accounts appearing later may need a quick re-map.
- Layerz keeps your ledger structure, not your invoicing workflow. It is a modelling layer, not an accounting tool.
