Build a working journal-review tool with AI in one session. Test it, improve it with a second prompt, and adapt it to your own ERP exports — you keep the tool, the prompts, and the method.
Build your own finance tool with AI without coding; then use it to find different accounting issues in a realistic general ledger.
In this hands-on AI Finance course, you build a Journal Explorer: a simple tool that runs in your web browser and helps you review general-ledger journal entries. You do not write any code—the AI builds the tool from a ready-made prompt, and you are guided at every step.
What you will do:
What your tool will do:
Eleven accounting issues you will discover:
The fictitious course data contain eleven different issues, such as a posting in an unexpected direction, a near-duplicate journal, or a missing purchase-order reference. You learn to treat each one as a review lead to investigate, not as proof of an error.
Everything you need is included:
You receive detailed course notes and a copy-and-paste prompt library (33 pages), the course data, and the finished tool to try straight away. You start with safe, fictitious data and learn how to protect real company data before you use your own exports.
Who this course is for:
The Journal Explorer is built for

Practical AI for Accounting & Finance | Build Your Own Tools | Fraud Prevention, E-Invoicing & Ethics | 30 Years of Experience
My courses focus on practical applications of AI in accounting and finance, alongside fraud prevention, e-invoicing and financial reporting ethics. – AI Finance: Build and customise reconciliation tools and fraud dashboards using plain-language prompts (“vibe coding”), without prior programming experience. Learn to validate results, protect sensitive data and create repeatable workflows. – Fraud prevention and internal controls: Recognise red flags in invoices, payments, payroll and other transactions, and apply preventive controls and structured investigation methods. – E-invoicing: Understand global requirements, electronic invoice formats and opportunities to automate accounts payable and receivable. – Financial reporting ethics: Work through accounting judgments, estimates and ethical dilemmas using practical cases and decision-making tools. My teaching draws on 30 years of experience in accounting, finance leadership, internal and external audit, and transformation, including roles at Big4 firms, DELL, SSE and TOMRA. I am a Fellow of ACCA (FCCA) and the founder of E-LITE Consulting and RSAgile.
