Why Xero Consolidation Is Painful
Repetitive manual work
Every subsidiary lives in its own Xero org — group reporting starts with repetitive exports and a blank spreadsheet.
Interco eliminations by hand
Loans, recharges, intercompany sales matched and eliminated manually. Each missed entry sets off a wild goose chase.
Foreign currency translation
Subsidiaries across different currencies need a consistent FX translation rule across P&L, BS, and equity.
Tricky edge cases
Most apps fit group reports to standard templates that don't support unique needs.
Built Around Your Group
Complete granular control over eliminations, FX, and more. Mapped to how the group actually works.
Your Reporting Format
A generic consolidation export was never going to match the format you actually report in.
Cheetah builds to your exact layout — line ordering, groupings, formatting — so the report lands ready to use, not ready to reformat.
Intercompany Eliminations
Intercompany balances cancel out the same way every period. You shouldn't have to chase them. Define how matches work once – by account, tracking category, counterparty, or pairs you set by hand – and Cheetah applies them everytime.
The full elimination schedule comes with it, line by line, so the numbers are never a black box.

Foreign Currency Translation
Translation isn't one rate across the board, and your auditors know it. Set your policy line by line — period-end, average, or historical — and choose whether Cheetah pulls the rate or you supply it.
Your method, applied consistently, every time you generate.

Custom KPIs & Comparables
Once the group is consolidated, the metrics that actually run the business sit one layer up. Cheetah computes them on top of the combined numbers — custom ratios, segment margins, rolling twelve-months, even a break-even that reflects how your business really works.
The formulas too tangled to maintain by hand, automatically written for you.

If no off-the-shelf tool fits your group, that's exactly what we build for.
Manual Excel Consolidation vs. Cheetah
What the monthly close looks like with and without consolidation automation.
Manual Excel close
- Export trial balances from each Xero org, one by one
- Re-key intercompany balances and chase mismatches
- Translate FX manually using period-end rates
- Rebuild the consolidated P&L and balance sheet every month
- Triple-check formulas before sending to the board
Cheetah
- Live-pull every entity's data from Xero in one run
- Intercompany eliminations applied by rule, with audit trail
- FX translation using your chosen rates and policy
- Consolidated P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow in a flash

How Cheetah Works
We learn your group structure, accounting policies, eliminations, current report format and every other quirk to produce your perfect report.
We systemise your logic — eliminations, FX, etc. — into an engine connected to Xero orgs in the group that reliably rebuilds your report.
Run your consolidation on demand. New entity? Modified chart of accounts? Methodology change? We got those covered.
Cheetah vs. Other Xero Consolidation Apps
Joiin, Fathom, Spotlight and dataSights are good tools, built for different jobs. If one of them fits your group, use it. When none of them do, that's what Cheetah is for.

“Cheetah has become our quiet competitive edge. Reports that used to eat up half our month-end now land in minutes. The team now spends their hours on advisory work instead of cleaning up spreadsheets.”
“We use Cheetah to handle our custom Xero reports, especially for clients with multiple operating entities that require heavy consolidation. What previously took 4+ hours of tedious work in spreadsheets is now fully automated and ready in seconds.”
“Consolidated reporting used to take hours of manual prep. With Cheetah, it's one click — structured exactly how each client wants it. We've gone from preparing reports to actually advising on them.”
“The platform is straightforward to use, and the Cheetah team has also been very responsive whenever we need assistance or adjustments to our reports. We mainly use Cheetah for our consolidation work, and it has made the process of consolidating financial data across multiple entities much more efficient and manageable.”
“We never thought our complicated business logic could be built into a systemised report until Cheetah delivered it. Whenever we need changes made, we get the responsiveness of a dedicated analyst.”
“Chanced upon Cheetah whilst looking for a customised tool to build reports from Xero data. Cannot be happier with the customisation and efficiency of Jarvin. Takes hours off manual work with Excel.”
“Cheetah is very helpful with coming up with custom, non-standard reports that suit our client's needs! Highly recommended”

Consolidation FAQ
Common questions about consolidating Xero entities with Cheetah.
Does Xero do multi-entity consolidation natively?
Not on standard plans. Xero's own reports, including Xero Analytics, don't combine organisations. The new Xero Ultra plan (Australia only so far) includes consolidation. Our guide to consolidating multiple Xero entities covers what native Xero can and can't do.
How does Cheetah consolidate multiple Xero organisations?
Cheetah connects to every Xero org in your group, pulls live data on each run, applies your eliminations and FX rules, and rebuilds the consolidated P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow in Google Sheets.
Is Cheetah an app or a service?
Both. We build the consolidation for you, around your group structure, eliminations, FX policy and report layout, so there's nothing for you to configure. Then it's yours to run whenever you need it, straight from Xero into Google Sheets. When the group changes, we update it.
Is Cheetah a Xero consolidation add-on?
Yes. Cheetah is a Xero-certified App Partner and connects to each organisation in your group through Xero's API. Unlike most consolidation add-ons, it isn't a template you configure yourself: it's built around how your group actually reports, and the output lands in Google Sheets.
Can Cheetah handle intercompany eliminations?
Yes. We define the rules with you — loans, recharges, sales, dividends, etc. — and Cheetah applies them every close. Every entry is traceable, so reviewers can see what was removed and why.
Does Cheetah support foreign currency consolidation?
Yes. Each subsidiary's accounts are translated into the group reporting currency using your policy — period-end, average, or historical, by line. Applied consistently every month, so prior-period comparisons stay clean.
How is Cheetah different from Fathom, Spotlight or Joiin?
Joiin, Fathom and Spotlight are good tools, and if your group fits their templates, one of them is probably the simpler choice. Cheetah is for when it doesn't. We build around your methodology (your structure, line ordering, disclosures and eliminations), systemise how you already consolidate, then automate it.
How much does Xero consolidation with Cheetah cost?
Setup starts from $300, depending on how complex your report is. Running it starts from $50 a month per group, based on a two-entity group, with each additional entity at $15 a month. We confirm your exact price in the free consultation.
Can I add or remove entities later?
Yes. We handle entity changes for you — acquisitions, divestments, restructures. The engine is updated and tested before your next close.
How long does it take to set up consolidation?
Most groups are live in about a week. We scope the structure in a free consultation, then build and test the engine entity by entity.
Where does my consolidated data live?
Reports go straight to Google Sheets — exportable to Excel, PDF, or CSV. Cheetah doesn't store your data; everything is pulled fresh from Xero on every run.
