The provider statement lands in your inbox, and the spreadsheet starts
Every F&I product provider sends a statement. The accounting team downloads it, opens a spreadsheet, and starts matching lines against the back-office cost one by one. Two hours later, the reconciliation is a spreadsheet three people are scared to touch. Half the exclusions have no explanation, and the next time the auditor asks why a contract was left out, nobody remembers.
That is the problem Voltra's remittance workflow solves. Instead of a spreadsheet, the whole process runs in a single structured workflow with a locked record at the end.
How F&I remittance works in Voltra
The workflow has five steps. Each one builds on the last, and finalization locks everything so the history cannot be altered after the fact.
Every exclusion has a reason on record
The biggest pain point in a provider-statement reconciliation is not the math. It is the missing explanation. A contract shows up on the statement but not in your back-office cost, or the other way around, and three months later no one can say why it was excluded. Voltra forces the answer at the time of the decision, with a note attached to every Exclude mark.
That is the audit trail accounting needs and most spreadsheet-based reconciliations never have.
Finalization locks the record
Once you finalize a remittance in Voltra, it is locked. The line items, the Include/Exclude decisions, and the notes stay exactly as they were when you signed off. You can return to any past remittance and see precisely what was included, excluded, and why. No one can go back and quietly change a decision after the fact.
Remittances are created and owned in Voltra
The provider workbook comes from outside. The matching and the decisions happen in Voltra. That means Voltra is the system of record for your remittances, not a spreadsheet someone saved to a shared drive, not an email thread, not a file on the accountant's desktop that nobody else can find.
Every remittance your team finalizes lives in Voltra alongside the line items and the history. Past remittances are searchable and readable at any time.
Who handles remittance in Voltra
Remittance access is scoped by role. The accounting team runs the workflow end to end, from upload through finalization. F&I directors can also reach the remittance area. Roles that do not need access do not see it. Your team is not sorting through modules that do not apply to their job.
Sits on top of your F&I platform. Never writes back.
Voltra does not replace your F&I platform, your menu system, or your DMS. It is additive. Voltra reads supporting data from the systems you run and never writes back to them. Your F&I platform stays where it is. Your DMS stays where it is. Voltra is the layer where accounting does the remittance work that would otherwise live in a spreadsheet.
