Konsolidat

Konsolidat is an MIT-licensed, open-source EPM product for finance teams using SAP or Microsoft Dynamics, with an Excel-native interface. Worksheet formulas retrieve backend results into existing workbooks. It consolidates multiple entities and currencies, applies elimination logic, attributes non-controlling interests and groups entities through ownership trees. Its allocation engine handles driver-based, cascading and reciprocal allocations, with iterative solving and traceability to source pools. The product describes driver-based budgets, scenario management and variance analysis; rolling forecasts are also listed as a roadmap item. Dynamics 365 F&O and ERPNext connectors are available, while SAP S/4HANA is offered through a paid pilot. SAP ECC, Business Central and SAP Business One remain roadmap items. The described data pipeline uses Airbyte, dbt and ClickHouse. Security options listed include 2FA, role-based access, audit logging, SSO and LDAP/Active Directory. Teams can self-host on their own cloud or on-premises infrastructure, or use a managed hosted plan. Self-hosting costs nothing and requires operating the software and infrastructure; hosted pricing is $3,500 a month. Automated cash-flow statements and multi-GAAP parallel reporting are roadmap items.
