The Problem We Solve

Lease accounting was never designed for daily precision

Many organizations operating under IFRS 16 and ASC 842 require lease accounting calculations based on actual calendar days — not approximations — to align with internal accounting policies, external audit requirements, and management reporting standards.

Traditional ERP lease accounting modules, including the standard D365 Finance Asset Leasing module, are designed around monthly or periodic calculation cycles. This creates a critical gap: finance teams lack day-level visibility into lease liability balances, interest accruals, and ROU asset depreciation — leading to reconciliation effort, limited insights, and audit risk.

Industry Challenge

The monthly accounting gap

Traditional approach

Traditional lease accounting relies on fixed periodic calculations that allocate amortization, interest, and depreciation evenly across reporting periods. While simple to manage, this method does not consider the actual number of days in each period, which can reduce the accuracy of lease-related financial calculations and expense recognition.

The visibility gap

Equal periodic allocations can make it difficult to understand how lease expenses relate to the actual time elapsed in a reporting period, reducing transparency and confidence in financial calculations.

The opportunity

A solution built natively on D365 Finance that calculates lease amortization, interest, and depreciation based on the actual number of days in each reporting period. By aligning calculations with the true passage of time, organizations can achieve greater accuracy, consistency, and transparency in lease accounting.

Our Innovation

Extending D365 Asset Leasing with daily precision

INDX Asset Leasing solution is a purpose-built enhancement to the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance Asset Leasing module. Rather than replacing the standard framework, it extends and enriches it — adding a daily calculation engine that operates within your existing D365 environment.

Actual-day expense recognition

Using an actual-day convention, the solution allocates amortization, interest, and depreciation according to the number of days in each accounting period rather than applying the same amount across all periods.

Actual-day amortization

Lease liabilities are amortized based on the actual number of days in each reporting period, providing a consistent and time-based approach to interest allocation and liability reduction.

Actual-day interest calculation

Interest is allocated according to the actual number of days in each accounting period, providing a consistent approach across the lease term.

Actual-day depreciation

ROU asset depreciation is calculated based on the actual number of days in each reporting period, ensuring that depreciation expense is recognized in proportion to the length of the period throughout the lease term.

Automated calculation engine

The solution applies actual-day calculations automatically, ensuring that lease accounting amounts are determined consistently across reporting periods and lease contracts.

End-to-end automation

From the moment a lease contract is entered in D365 Finance, INDX solution takes over — automatically applying an actual-day calculation methodology across the lease term. Amortization, interest, and depreciation are calculated based on the actual number of days in each reporting period, ensuring that accounting amounts reflect the duration of the period rather than a fixed periodic allocation.

This approach removes the need for manual recalculations to accommodate varying month lengths and provides a consistent method for recognizing lease-related expenses throughout the lease lifecycle — delivering real-time visibility across the entire lease lifecycle with full audit trail integrity.

All calculations follow actual-day convention (365/366 days), ensuring compliance with IFRS 16 and ASC 842 standards.

Business Value

Three pillars of value delivered

Improved financial accuracy

Actual-day calculations eliminate rounding errors and approximations inherent in monthly models. Every expense is allocated to the correct period with precision — strengthening your audit position and financial statement integrity.

Precise expense allocation by day
Enhanced audit transparency
IFRS 16 / ASC 842 alignment

Deeper visibility

Actual-day calculations provide a clearer view of how lease expenses are recognized over time. This improves transparency, supports financial analysis, and helps finance teams better understand period-to-period movements in lease accounting balances.

Explainability of calculations

Enhanced control

Standardized, automated processing replaces ad-hoc manual calculations. Finance teams gain consistent accounting treatment across the entire lease portfolio, reducing operational risk and freeing capacity for higher-value work.
