The Obligation

Firms must maintain precise records proving that client funds held in trust are never commingled or misappropriated, balancing bank statements against internal ledgers.

The Friction

Manual three-way reconciliation at the end of the month means chasing down mysterious discrepancies weeks after they occurred, risking compliance violations.

The Disbo Standard

This roadmap concept illustrates a possible workflow in which bank, book, and client-ledger records could be compared continuously. It is in design and does not describe a live Disbo workflow.

Core Capabilities

Planned Continuous Reconciliation

A roadmap concept for comparing bank, book, and client-ledger records on an ongoing basis; not currently live.

Planned Per-Client Ledgers

A design concept for viewing trust activity by matter; this illustrative capability is not currently available.

Planned Discrepancy Alerts

A planned alerting concept for potential ledger mismatches; timing, behavior, and availability remain in design.

Planned Reconciliation Reporting

An illustrative reporting workflow under consideration, not an available export or compliance-reporting feature.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Disbo planning for three-way reconciliation?

Disbo is exploring an illustrative workflow that could compare bank balances, book records, and per-matter client ledgers. The examples on this page communicate the design direction only; three-way reconciliation is not currently live, and its behavior and availability have not been committed.

What is planned for potential discrepancy detection?

The roadmap includes a design concept for surfacing possible differences between bank, book, and client-ledger records. It is illustrative rather than a live alerting system, so notification details, timing, and resolution outcomes are not defined.

What does the planned per-client ledger concept show?

The illustrated ledger shows how a future design might organize trust activity, balances, and transaction history by matter. It is a roadmap visual, not a current Disbo ledger, and does not represent an available workflow.

Is multi-jurisdiction trust accounting available?

No. Multi-jurisdiction trust accounting is a planned area of exploration, not a currently available capability. This page does not promise jurisdiction-specific rules, reporting, retention, or compliance support.

When will the planned trust accounting capability be available?

Disbo has not announced availability timing, setup steps, migration support, or implementation commitments for this roadmap capability. You can book a demo to discuss the design direction and share your firm's trust-accounting needs.
