Finance as a Core Business Function
Where strategy becomes numbers — and numbers drive decisions.
Markviss gives Finance one clean structure to align plans, actuals, and accountability across Sales, Operations, and Cost Centers. Every goal and KPI can — and ultimately should — roll into a financial KPI.
Everything Rolls Up to Finance
Industry solutions, functional goals, and operational metrics all connect here. Sales affects Net Sales & Cash; Manufacturing shapes COGS & Working Capital; Cost Centers drive OpEx & Margin — Finance integrates it all.

- Units & price → Net Sales
- Discounts/returns → Gross vs. Net
- Collections → DSO & AR aging
Manufacturing/Ops → COGS & WC
- Materials & yield → COGS
- Inventory → ITO & DSI
- CapEx → Depreciation & ROA
Cost Centers → OpEx & Margin
- HR & payroll → Salary margin
- Sales/Marketing → promo efficiency
- G&A → operating margin
