Financial / ERP / Auditing

For nearly 40 years, HELM has continuously evolved to meet the financial, reporting, and compliance needs of complex organizations. At its core, HELM provides robust transaction tracking with the intelligence to build comprehensive data warehouses and detailed financial transaction records—the foundation for accountability from donor reporting all the way to the general ledger.

General Ledger–Ready Financial Integration

HELM includes fully automated tools that apply client-specific business rules, transforming operational activity into General Ledger–ready exports in real time. This eliminates manual reconciliation, reduces errors, and ensures that financial records are always accurate and up to date.

Because financial data flows directly from operations, organizations close the gap between what happens in the warehouse and what appears in their books—without the spreadsheets and re-keying that introduce risk.

Integration Expertise

The team at Humanitarian Software brings decades of experience in designing and delivering system integrations. Our solution engineers take the time to map out the full detail of your financial capture, integration, and reporting needs—down to the transaction activity and debit/credit level. From this analysis, we develop exacting reports and real-time interfaces that connect HELM with your other business systems.

We have successfully built integrations for widely used platforms, including:

• ERPx
• NetSuite
• Unit4
• SAP
• Oracle Financials
• Blackbaud
• PeopleSoft
• Salesforce

We are equally experienced developing custom integrations for specialized or legacy applications. Because the majority of HELM implementations involve some level of system integration, this work is a common and expected part of our project delivery.

Auditing and Accountability

Every transaction in HELM is backed by a detailed audit trail. The system captures not only what was changed, but also the before and after versions of each material update. This level of recordkeeping provides a comprehensive financial audit history, giving organizations full visibility into every action performed within HELM.

Combined with the system’s data warehouse architecture, these features create a reliable foundation for regulatory compliance, donor reporting, and internal accountability.

Reporting and Analytics

Beyond integrations and auditing, HELM provides a powerful suite of reporting and analytics tools. Users can:

• Run ad hoc queries
• Design tailored reports
• Build custom exports
• Generate visual insights through graphs and dashboards

This flexibility ensures that every organization can access the information it needs—whether for daily decision-making, donor reporting, or executive-level financial oversight.

The Result

Together, these capabilities deliver the transparency, flexibility, and actionable intelligence that organizations need. With HELM, financial and operational data flow seamlessly across the enterprise, integrations are tailored to each organization’s unique environment, and every activity is documented with a full audit history. The result is a system that meets the highest standards of accountability, accuracy, and control.
