"Occupier’s lease admin and accounting platform is a great one-two punch. It helps our facilities team a lot and it also helps finance at the same time. It's taken a process that has historically been very manual and turned it into an automated one, which I think anyone would be happy about.”

Lease accounting software vs. spreadsheets

A spreadsheet handles a small, static portfolio. It stops working at the point where leases change during the year, more than one person edits the file, or an auditor asks for support that has to be rebuilt rather than retrieved. The failure is rarely a formula error on day one. It is a renewal exercised in March that nobody carried into the schedule.

How it works

From chaos to control in three steps

Most teams are live in 4 - 6 weeks. Timing depends on portfolio size and
how much lease history you bring over, and managed onboarding can take the heavy lifting off your team.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does lease accounting software do?
Lease accounting software turns lease terms into the numbers a financial statement needs: the right-of-use asset, the lease liability, the amortization schedule, the journal entries, and the disclosure tables. The calculations are not the hard part. Keeping them accurate while leases change is, and that is where a platform earns its place over a spreadsheet.

Occupier is built for tenants managing multi-location portfolios, where a lease amendment signed by the real estate team has to reach the accounting calculations before the month closes rather than after.
What is the difference between lease management and lease accounting?
Lease management handles the operational side—tracking leases, managing renewals, monitoring critical dates, and organizing lease documents. Lease accounting focuses on financial compliance—calculating ROU assets and lease liabilities, generating journal entries, and producing reports for ASC 842, IFRS 16, and other accounting standards. Occupier combines both in one platform so operations and finance work from the same verified lease data.
What can lease accounting software help to calculate?
  • Classification of each lease as operating or finance against the five ASC 842 criteria
  • Present value of lease payments using the rate implicit in the lease, an incremental borrowing rate, or the risk-free rate election
  • The right-of-use asset, adjusted for prepaid rent, deferred rent, incentives, and initial direct costs
  • Amortization and interest schedules for the full term, retained for audit after every change
  • Remeasurement when the term changes, an option is exercised, payments are modified, or an index-linked payment resets
  • Separation of lease and non-lease components, or their combination where the practical expedient has been elected
  • Impairment of the right-of-use asset when indicators are present
  • Disclosure outputs: maturity table, roll-forward, weighted average remaining term, weighted average discount rate, and cash flow supplemental amounts
Can one system handle both lease administration and lease accounting?
Yes. Occupier runs lease administration and lease accounting on the same lease data, so real estate and finance teams never have to keep two systems in sync. Real estate manages critical dates, renewals, clauses, and documents. Finance gets ROU assets, lease liabilities, journal entries, and disclosures under ASC 842, IFRS 16, GASB 87, and FRS 102, all from the terms real estate keeps current.
What do auditors get from Occupier?
Auditors get the reports they typically ask for, generated from the same data finance uses to close: trial balance, lease roll-forward, maturity schedules, and footnote disclosures. Every entry has a change log, so finance can answer auditor questions by pulling a report instead of rebuilding a spreadsheet.
How does IFRS 16 differ from ASC 842?
IFRS 16 uses a single lessee model, so every qualifying lease is accounted for the same way: depreciation on the right-of-use asset and interest on the lease liability. ASC 842 keeps the older split between operating and finance leases, so the classification step that IFRS 16 skips still has to happen under ASC 842.

Companies with entities that report under IFRS 16 need the right-of-use asset, the lease liability, and the amortization schedule to come out of the same lease data feeding any ASC 842 books the rest of the business runs in parallel. Occupier calculates all three under IFRS 16 from the lease data your real estate and finance teams already keep current, so adding a standard doesn't mean rebuilding the calculation from scratch.
Does Occupier integrate with NetSuite and other ERPs?
Occupier has a pre-built NetSuite integration that sends journal entries directly to your books, available on Enterprise plans. For SAP, Oracle, Sage, and other ERPs, Occupier exports journal entries ready for your close process, and Enterprise customers can add a custom integration built for their system. Talk to us about your ERP and we'll show you how it connects.
How long does it take to go live?
Most customers go live within 4–6 weeks of signing. Occupier extracts key terms from your lease PDFs, your team reviews them, and finance confirms discount rates and transition balances before the first close.
