Every location on its own ledger, rolled up to one view
Franchisees run their own books; the franchisor sees system revenue, AR, royalties, and leads aggregated into a rollup - with access scoped so each side sees exactly what it should.

The multi-location model
In a franchise, each location is its own business with its own ledger. Fintra links each franchisee to its own company and entity, so the location keeps clean, independent books - while the franchisor gets a rollup that aggregates the network without merging anyone’s ledger into a single set of numbers.
- Each franchisee is linked to its own company/entity and books.
- The franchisor rollup aggregates revenue, open AR, royalties, and leads.
- Role scoping: franchisors see the network; franchisees see only their workspace.
What the rollup aggregates
| Metric | What it sums |
|---|---|
| Franchisees total / active | Count of locations by status |
| System revenue | Revenue across locations |
| System AR open | Open receivables across locations |
| Royalties total | Royalties across locations |
| Leads total / won | Pipeline and wins, with system conversion % |
Rollup, not GAAP consolidation
Why this model fits franchising
Franchisees are independent owners, so their books should be independent - but the franchisor still needs a network view. Keeping separate ledgers and rolling them up respects that structure, and because everyone runs on Fintra, the rollup is built from real numbers rather than emailed reports.
Frequently asked questions
How does multi-location accounting work in a franchise?
Each location keeps its own ledger as an independent business, and the franchisor gets a rollup that aggregates system revenue, open AR, royalties, and leads across locations. Fintra links each franchisee to its own company and entity, so the books stay separate while the franchisor sees the whole network.
What does the franchisor rollup show?
It aggregates the count of active and total franchisees, system revenue, open receivables, total royalties, and lead pipeline with a system conversion rate. A franchisor dashboard adds system sales, fee collection, ad-fund balance, top and bottom performers, and royalty-risk flags.
Is the rollup a consolidated financial statement?
No. The rollup is an aggregation of location metrics for management visibility. It is not a GAAP consolidation - Fintra does not eliminate intercompany transactions or produce a single eliminated group statement. Each location’s detailed financials remain separate.
Can franchisees see each other’s data?
No. Access is scoped by role. A franchisor sees the whole network - rollups, benchmarks, royalty risk - while each franchisee sees only its own workspace and its own card relative to the network median, never another location’s detail.
