Add lease cost advisory work
Start with an ERP signal. Then ask for the lease and landlord files.
That order keeps the offer focused. It also stops weak records from becoming lease findings.
Oracle's bill-to-PO rules cover terms and amounts. Those bill rules live here. They do not test CAM terms in a lease.
Your advisory service can bridge that gap. It needs clear inputs, owners, and stop rules.
Pick the right client
Choose clients with repeat landlord charges. Look for many sites or several lease years.
Good fit signals include:
- Repeat landlord vendors
- Annual CAM bills
- Large year-end true-ups
- Missing lease IDs
- Unmapped charge labels
- Manual review notes
These signals do not prove an error. They only support a file request.
Avoid projects with no signed lease file. Also require an approved client owner.
Build the service map
Use one row for each client step. Name the owner before work begins.
| Step | Input | Output | Owner | Stop rule |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Client fit | Site and vendor list | Scope choice | ERP lead | No clear need |
| Signal screen | Bills and ledger rows | File request | Data lead | No source ID |
| File intake | Lease and CAM bill | Complete file set | Client owner | Missing signed lease |
| CAM review | Complete source files | Reviewed items | Audit reviewer | Unclear lease text |
| Client delivery | Approved work | Branded CAM audit | Firm lead | Review not signed |
| System handoff | Approved status | ERP update plan | ERP lead | No posting approval |
Keep legal advice outside this map. Keep payment release outside it too.
The client may need accounting advice. That work needs its own scope and owner.
Separate four evidence types
Each record answers a different question. Do not blend the answers.
| Evidence | Question | Safe use |
|---|---|---|
| ERP row | What was recorded? | Start a source request |
| Source file | What did the parties write? | Support lease review |
| Audit record | What did the tests identify? | Support firm review |
| Approval note | What may happen next? | Allow a controlled handoff |
Bill Capture shows this split in another setting. It keeps a source file near its field ideas. Staff check those fields before record creation. Oracle lists that process here.
Those controls do not prove lease compliance. They show why source and suggestion should stay distinct.
Define the ERP signals
Use signals the client can explain. Avoid secret scores and guessed thresholds.
Start with these tests:
- Does the landlord vendor match a leased site?
- Does the row hold a lease ID?
- Does the bill show a statement year?
- Does the charge type have a mapping?
- Does the source file link still work?
- Does the same bill appear twice?
The sixth test is an ERP control. It is not a lease-aware CAM test.
The dimension guide helps govern those keys.
Request the right files
Ask for one complete lease-year set. Do not begin with every client record.
Request these items:
- Signed lease
- Signed lease changes
- CAM statement
- Landlord support
- Payment history
- Prior dispute record
Mark each file as present or missing. Do not fill a gap with an ERP field.
The file list also reduces delay. Reviewers can stop before deep work begins.
Keep system repair separate
Some signals point to ERP defects. Others point to source document questions.
Fix the ERP when a field is wrong. Route the lease file when a term needs review.
Use this decision rule:
| Finding | Route |
|---|---|
| Missing lease ID | Data governance |
| Broken file link | Document owner |
| Wrong vendor mapping | ERP configuration |
| Lease cap question | CAM review |
| Notice question | Counsel |
| Posting choice | Client approver |
That split keeps your service honest. It also gives each specialist a clean handoff.
Walk a sample account
Harbor Retail is a fictional example. The facts are made up for planning.
Harbor Retail has twelve leased sites. Its ERP has one landlord vendor per property.
One annual bill lacks a lease ID. The ERP lead fixes that record first.
The client then supplies the signed lease. It also supplies the CAM statement.
The CAM reviewer checks those source files. The ERP row remains a trace link.
The review does not create an ERP entry. An approved client owner controls any system change.
Package the client work
Give the client a small record set. Make each record useful without new software.
Include:
- Service scope
- Signal list
- File checklist
- Review status
- Approved next step
- System handoff note

Where CAMAudit fits
ERP consultants can add this review to the service map.
Your service map ends with a firm review. CAMAudit supports that one review step.
Send only the supplied lease and CAM files. CAMAudit runs fixed math checks on them.
Any flagged item can cite its source lines. The firm reviewer decides what moves forward.
Approved work becomes your branded CAM audit. Your firm reviews and signs that audit. Your firm then delivers it.
A dispute letter draft may follow the audit. Your firm checks the draft before use.
It is not legal advice. Have counsel review before sending.
CAMAudit cannot post ERP entries. There is no native CAMAudit ERP connector.
