Abstract: Embodiments of computer-implemented methods and systems for posting non-machine journal entries to a general ledger can help the user validate non-machine journal entries posted to the general ledger. A non-machine journal entry application can be operated on a web platform which can be operated to maintain recurrent entries, create new or correct existing entries, and validate entries before posting them to the general ledger system. Operating the non-machine journal entry application, a user can store and maintain recurring entries in a database; validate a journal batch before posting; post recurring entries; correct existing entries; track journal entry batches sent to the general ledger; report on types of journal entries and posting history; and verify recurring batch completeness from exception, summary and account detail reports.

Abstract: A web-based application for an insurance carrier that combines national account information and detailed insurance policy information with catastrophe modeling technology. As an event occurs, the modeling technology determines a projected damage area that the event will cause. The insurance carrier can cross-reference that information with its account and policy information. In a short time, the insurance carrier can generate the following catastrophe exposure data: (1) summary reports indicating the projected number of damaged locations for each account; (2) maps and graphs of each account's affected locations that provide a visual image of the epicenter and the concentration of the losses; and (3) tables with detailed property location information. After receiving this data, the insurance carrier can secure the services of independent adjusters and assign other resources according to the scope and magnitude of the projected loss.
