How does Aurgus work with Rillet?

By design, Aurgus works alongside Rillet and reads from its exports, governs the rebate and incentive estimate outside it under ASC 606 and ASC 705-20, surfaces exceptions for human approval, and writes nothing back to the Rillet general ledger. Every accrual traces to the source rows, the rule that fired, and who approved it.

Rebate management for Rillet

A fast close doesn’t stop the leak — even a real-time ledger posts the rebate number someone else computed, and that’s where earned margin slips away. Rillet rebuilt the general ledger AI-native and real-time — automating journal entries, accruals, reconciliations, and a near-zero-day close. Even a modern ledger, though, posts the rebate number someone else computed. Governed off-invoice calculation is a specialized layer upstream of the ledger — and that's where Aurgus sits beside Rillet.

How Rillet handles rebates today

A modern ledger still posts a number computed upstream

Rillet's real-time, AI-native GL is excellent at automating the close — journal entries, accruals, reconciliations, consolidations. The rebate accrual it posts still has to be computed and proven against contracts, qualifying sales, claims and settlements under ASC 606 and ASC 705-20. That off-invoice calculation layer sits upstream of any ledger, AI-native or not:

01Retroactive volume tiers. When crossing a threshold reprices the whole period back to dollar one, a flat accrual line under-reserves until the catch-up lands in one quarter.
02ASC 606 estimates and true-ups. Variable consideration has to be estimated, constrained, and re-based every period — not booked at the rate earned so far, and not trued up once at year-end.
03Vendor rebates under ASC 705-20. A purchase rebate follows the goods — inventory while they sit, COGS as they sell — rather than a single up-front credit to COGS.
04Claim-to-settlement reconciliation. Matching what you claimed to what actually settled, by program and period, is where short-pay quietly hides.
05The ten-minute rebuild. Reconstructing a posted accrual to its source rows on demand is the audit test — and the first thing a bolt-on or spreadsheet loses.

What Aurgus adds, beside Rillet

A real-time ledger deserves a governed rebate number to post

Aurgus governs the rebate and incentive calculation — reading agreements, qualifying sales, claims, and settlements — and hands the ledger a governed, traceable accrual to post, with the estimate basis and approval attached. It complements a continuous close rather than competing with it: the number Rillet posts is one that can already be rebuilt to source. Because Aurgus reads rather than lives inside, it also spans a mixed-ERP group or a migration in progress.
