The GL is clean. The funds are tracked. The audit trail is solid. But when it's time to build next year's budget, get department heads aligned, or show leadership a real forecast, the process involves spreadsheets, email threads, and manual consolidation that no amount of accounting rigor can fix.
Martus strengthens MIP's capabilities by streamlining budgeting, forecasting, and reporting, so the whole organization can plan together.
The Martus + MIP Cloud API integration connects your accounting data directly to a purpose-built financial planning environment. Your chart of accounts, dimensions, and GL activity flow into Martus automatically, so your team can focus on planning and reporting instead of data management.
Together, Martus and MIP help finance teams plan collaboratively, improve visibility, and create a more strategic financial process. Features include:
Martus supports the dimensions and segments configured in MIP, helping finance teams build reports and budgets that align with their operational structure and goals.

Not on MIP Cloud yet? Martus also supports on-premise MIP users through a file-based integration. You can still take advantage of better budgeting, reporting, and planning tools regardless of where your data lives — and when you're ready to move to the cloud, Martus moves with you.

Finance leaders who connect Martus and MIP are well prepared to support organizational growth, shifting priorities, and whatever comes next for their team.
