Treasury module guide

Last updated: September 5, 2026

This Treasury module guide covers your organization’s banking relationships and both sides of its debt: what it owes, and what it has lent. It covers accounts and signatories, credit facilities and their covenants, loans the organization has made, investments, security interests, guarantees, and letters of credit. A lender’s covenant review typically draws on the organization’s financial statements for the covenant period.

Bank Accounts and Signatories

Open Treasury from the left navigation to see every record type the module covers. A Bank Account is a deposit or operating account held at a financial institution, with its authorized signatories tracked underneath — each carrying its own signing capacity, such as sole, joint, online payment approver, or view-only.

Credit Facilities Owed

The Credit Facility Document Register

A Credit Facility is debt extended to your organization — a term loan, a revolving line of credit, or a bridge facility — with its parties (borrowers, co-borrowers, guarantors). Each facility keeps a chronological Credit Facility Document register: the credit agreement, an amendment, an extension, a commitment change, a repricing, a waiver, a consent, a fee letter, or a notice, each its own row recorded by document type and effective date. This register — not a field on the facility record — is what derives the facility’s commitment, maturity, and margin: the credit agreement sets the initial terms, and any later document that changes one of them supersedes what came before. Opening the register tells you which document to trust for the facility’s current terms.

Covenants and Certifications

A facility’s covenants are their own register too, each tracking its own certification submissions. A certified non-compliance files Breached, a compliant certification files Certified compliant, and a waiver files Waived — the certification drives the covenant’s status rather than a manual update.

Loans Made and Investments

Loan Made

Loan Made is the lender’s-seat mirror of Credit Facility: it tracks loans and credit your organization has extended rather than received — intercompany loans, loans to officers or employees, seller notes, or vendor financing. Each has its own parties beyond the borrower (co-borrowers, guarantors, participants) and its own Loan Made Document register, following the same pattern as Credit Facility: the loan agreement or note, an amendment, an extension, a principal change, a repricing, a waiver, a consent, a payoff letter, or a notice, each recorded by document type and effective date.

Investment

Investment tracks financial holdings that aren’t an equity stake — those stay in the Legal Entities module’s Entity Ownership — and aren’t a bank account. That covers marketable securities, fund or partnership interests, fixed-term deposits and CDs, notes and bonds held, escrow or holdback receivables, and digital assets. Each investment keeps its own Investment Document register for the subscription agreement, the partnership agreement, a side letter, statements, capital-call or distribution notices, an escrow agreement, or tax reporting.

Security Interests, Guarantees, and Letters of Credit

  • Security Interests — collateral pledged to secure financing, with their UCC filings, continuations, and amendments.
  • Guarantees — corporate guarantees issued or received, with exposure tracking.
  • Letters of Credit — standby and commercial LCs with expiration tracking and their own amendment register.

Adding and Accessing a Record

Adding a Record

Creating or editing records requires Editor access to the Treasury module.

Open the record type, click New, complete the form, and Save. Open a record to manage its nested items — an account’s signatories, or a facility’s parties, covenants, and certifications — and to set maturity and covenant reminders.

Who Can Access Treasury

  • Viewing requires access to the Treasury module.
  • Creating or editing requires Editor access.

Credit facilities can link several of your organizations as co-borrowers; on Enterprise plans, access group scoping grants access through any linked organization within your assigned access groups.
