Bring non-platform spend into the same governed ledger.

Capture manual vendor spend without losing source ownership, validation, conflict handling, or audit history.

Audience

Teams using G2, sponsorships, events, agencies, newsletters, content syndication, and other manual vendors.

Slate gives this team a governed spend layer before exports, reporting decks, or stakeholder review.

Why manual spend breaks reporting

Manual vendors often live in one-off files, inconsistent tabs, or invoice notes that never match platform data structure.

Source setup

Create governed manual sources with owner, status, notes, and recent activity.

Bulk import/paste

Bring rows in quickly while previewing unknown sources, invalid values, and conflicts before commit.

Conflict handling

Exact duplicates are skipped and conflicting rows require explicit correction selection and reason.

Audit history

Every create, import, and correction is logged for later review.
