FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can my AI change my accounting entries?

    No. The AI can only read data from your reports. It cannot write, edit, or delete any transactions in your accounting software.

  • 02

    Does the AI have access to my bank logins?

    No. The AI only accesses the data provided through the Railz connection. It never sees your direct bank credentials.

  • 03

    Can it audit multiple companies at once?

    Yes. Once it lists your businesses, you can ask it to compare reports across different entities.

  • 04

    What happens if a report is missing?

    If the specific report isn't available for an entity, the AI will tell you it cannot find that data.

  • 05

    Can the AI reconcile my bank statements?

    No. The AI can pull the reports to show you discrepancies, but the actual reconciliation process remains a human task.
