1.3 1.3 Key Components
1.3.1 1.3.1 Data Ingestion
Two Data Flows:
Flow 1: Historical Financial Data (ETL from Enterprise Systems)
- Source: Enterprise Data Warehouse (pre-loaded via ETL from SAP, HFM, ERP)
- ETL Frequency: Monthly batch updates from upstream systems
- Storage: PostgreSQL Database (Neon Cloud) with 7 tables, 585+ rows
- Characteristics:
- Historical data that rarely changes
- Already transformed and validated by ETL pipeline
- Pre-aggregated for performance
- Indexed for fast role-based queries
Database Tables: - financial_pl - P&L statements (153 rows) - balance_sheet - Balance sheet data (150 rows) - cash_flow - Cash flow statements (114 rows) - sap_gl_transactions - SAP General Ledger (48 rows) - hfm_actuals - HFM actual data (36 rows) - hfm_budget - HFM budget data (36 rows) - variance_report - Budget vs Actual variance (48 rows)
Note: The application does NOT handle ETL processes. Database is assumed to be pre-populated by enterprise ETL pipelines (e.g., SAP Data Services, Informatica, Talend).
Flow 2: Latest Month Reports / Planning Data (Manual File Upload)
Source: User-uploaded files (CSV, Excel, PDF)
Purpose:
- Latest month/quarter reports not yet in Data Warehouse
- Planning/forecasting files for scenario analysis
- Ad-hoc analysis reports
Storage: Local filesystem (
uploads/directory) - temporary storage onlyProcessing Strategy: Reference-only approach (no duplicate JSON files)
Processing:
# back/file_processor.py CSV/Excel → pandas.read_csv() → DataFrame ↓ Extract compact summary (5 rows preview, 4 stats only) ↓ Store original_file_path reference (no JSON duplicate) ↓ Format for LLM (100 tokens per file)Use Cases:
- “Analyze this month’s preliminary P&L (not yet in SAP)”
- “Compare this planning scenario with historical budget”
- “Review this external market report PDF”
1.3.2 1.3.2 LLM Orchestration

1.4 1.4 Security and Accuracy Measures
1.4.1 Security Measures:
1. Authentication & Authorization
# JWT Token-based authentication
# back/auth.py
def create_access_token(email: str) -> str:
payload = {
"sub": email,
"exp": datetime.utcnow() + timedelta(minutes=30)
}
return jwt.encode(payload, SECRET_KEY, algorithm="HS256")
# Protected endpoints
@app.post("/ai/chat")
async def ai_chat(current_user: User = Depends(get_current_user)):
# current_user automatically extracted from JWT
# Includes: email, role, is_adminSecurity Features: - JWT tokens with 30-minute expiry - Bcrypt password hashing (cost factor 12) - Token verification on every request - Automatic role extraction from token
2. File Upload Security
# back/file_processor.py
ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS = {'.csv', '.xlsx', '.xls', '.pdf'}
MAX_FILE_SIZE = 10 * 1024 * 1024 # 10MB
def validate_file(filename: str, file_size: int):
# Extension whitelist
ext = Path(filename).suffix.lower()
if ext not in ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS:
raise ValueError("File type not allowed")
# Size limit
if file_size > MAX_FILE_SIZE:
raise ValueError("File too large")
# Unique filename (prevent overwrite)
unique_name = f"{uuid.uuid4()}_{filename}"
# User-specific storage (no duplicate JSON created)
user_folder = f"uploads/{user_email}/"3. Database Security
# .env file (not committed to Git)
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:pass@host/db?sslmode=require
# Connection security
engine = create_engine(
DATABASE_URL,
pool_pre_ping=True, # Verify connections
connect_args={
"sslmode": "require", # Force SSL/TLS
"connect_timeout": 10
}
)1.4.2 Accuracy Measures:
1. Data Quality Checks
# Data cleaning on ingestion
def load_csv_to_db(csv_path: str):
df = pd.read_csv(csv_path)
# Remove placeholder values
df = df.replace({'-': ''}, regex=True)
# Convert numeric columns
df['amount'] = pd.to_numeric(df['amount'], errors='coerce')
# Validate dates
df['date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['date'], errors='coerce')
# Drop rows with missing critical data
df = df.dropna(subset=['date', 'amount', 'category'])
# Verify row count
logger.info(f"Loaded {len(df)} valid rows")2. Financial Metrics Validation
Test Case: OpEx Calculation
# Validation test
import pandas as pd
from back.financial_knowledge import calculate_financial_metrics
# Query actual P&L data
query = """
SELECT category, SUM(amount) as amount
FROM financial_pl
WHERE actual_budget = 'Actual'
GROUP BY category
"""

# Result:
# category amount
# 0 NonCash -873000.0
# 1 COGS -15675000.0
# 2 Revenue 35610000.0
# 3 OpEx -16305000.0
metrics = calculate_financial_metrics(df)
# AI response test
question = "What is the total OpEx?"
ai_response = ai_chat(question)
# Expected: "Total OpEx is $16.3M..."
# Actual: "Total OpEx is $16.3M, representing 45.8% of revenue."
# VALIDATION PASSED: AI correctly read from KEY METRICS3. Validation Results
| Test | Result | Status |
|---|---|---|
| OpEx accuracy | $16.3M | Correct |
| Context size | 296 tokens | Efficient |
| Response time | 1.4s | Fast |
| Disk usage (1000 files) | 100 MB | Compact |
| Quota efficiency | 22,700 req/$1 | Economical |
2 Part 2: Evaluation Design
2.1 2.1 Accuracy of Financial Interpretation
Objective: Ensure AI correctly interprets financial data and performs accurate calculations
2.1.1 Evaluation Metrics:
1. Calculation Accuracy (95% Target)
Test Suite:
# tests/test_accuracy.py
test_cases = [
{
"query": "What is the gross margin for Q1 2024?",
"expected_formula": "(Revenue - COGS) / Revenue × 100%",
"expected_result": 45.4, # ±0.5%
"data_source": "financial_pl WHERE period='2024-Q1'"
},
{
"query": "Calculate EBITDA for APAC Q1",
"expected_formula": "Operating Income + D&A",
"expected_result": 2100000, # ±1%
"must_include": ["operating income", "depreciation", "amortization"]
},
{
"query": "Variance % for EMEA OpEx",
"expected_formula": "(Actual - Budget) / Budget × 100%",
"expected_result": -8.5, # ±0.5%
"data_source": "variance_report WHERE bu='EMEA'"
}
]
def test_calculation_accuracy():
results = []
for case in test_cases:
response = ai_chat(case["query"])
# Extract calculated value
calculated = extract_number(response)
expected = case["expected_result"]
tolerance = case.get("tolerance", 0.01)
# Verify accuracy
accurate = abs(calculated - expected) / expected < tolerance
# Verify formula shown
formula_shown = case["expected_formula"] in response
results.append({
"query": case["query"],
"accurate": accurate,
"formula_shown": formula_shown,
"calculated": calculated,
"expected": expected
})
accuracy_rate = sum(r["accurate"] for r in results) / len(results)
formula_rate = sum(r["formula_shown"] for r in results) / len(results)
print(f"Calculation Accuracy: {accuracy_rate*100:.1f}%")
print(f"Formula Transparency: {formula_rate*100:.1f}%")
assert accuracy_rate >= 0.95, "Accuracy below 95%"
assert formula_rate >= 0.90, "Formula transparency below 90%"Success Criteria: - Calculation accuracy ≥ 95% - Data retrieval accuracy ≥ 95% - Expert interpretation agreement ≥ 90% - Formula transparency ≥ 90%
2.2 2.2 Response Time Performance
Performance Benchmarks:
| Metric | Target | Current | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Simple query (< 20 words) | < 2s | 1.4s | |
| Complex query (analysis) | < 5s | 3.2s | |
| File upload (10MB) | < 8s | 5.1s | |
| Database query | < 500ms | 180ms | |
| Health check | < 100ms | 30ms | |
| 50 concurrent users (p95) | < 5s | 3.5s |
Performance Characteristics:
- Compact Context → Fast AI Processing
- Token count: 296 tokens
- AI processing time: 1.0s
- Aggregated Queries → Fast DB
- Row count: 30-50 rows
- Query execution: 180ms
- No JSON Creation → Fast Upload
- File processing: 1.2s
- No duplicate write operation
3 Part 3: Future Enhancements
3.1 3.1 Context Caching for Further Optimization
Proposed Enhancement: Cache frequently used financial knowledge
# Gemini supports context caching
# Cache static financial knowledge for 1 hour
from google.generativeai import caching
cached_content = caching.CachedContent.create(
model="gemini-2.5-flash",
contents=[{
"role": "system",
"parts": [system_prompt] # Financial knowledge cached
}],
ttl=3600 # 1 hour cache
)
# Use cached context (no tokens charged for cached parts)
model = genai.GenerativeModel(cached_content=cached_content)
response = model.generate_content(user_query)
# Token savings: Only pay for user query + responseProjected Savings: - Current: 296 tokens (80 system + 150 data + 66 user query) - With caching: 216 tokens (0 cached system + 150 data + 66 query) - Additional 27% reduction
3.2 3.2 Scaling Across Business Units
Current Limitation: - Single database instance for all BUs - Manual BU assignment in code - No multi-tenant data isolation
Proposed Multi-Tenant Architecture:
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Tenant Router Layer │
│ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ │
│ │ BU: APAC │ │ BU: EMEA │ │BU: Americas │ │
│ │ (Tenant 1) │ │ (Tenant 2) │ │ (Tenant 3) │ │

┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Database Sharding Strategy │
│ ┌──────────────────┐ ┌──────────────────┐ │

│ │ - balance_sheet │ │ - balance_sheet │ │
│ │ Users: 50 │ │ Users: 35 │ │
│ └──────────────────┘ └──────────────────┘ │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Benefits: - Data Isolation: Each BU’s data physically separated - Performance: Smaller databases = faster queries - Compliance: Regional data residency (GDPR, etc.) - Scalability: Add new BUs without impacting existing - Cost Optimization: Scale each tenant independently
3.3 3.3 Vector Embeddings for Finance Knowledge
Current Limitation: - Minimal 80-token system prompt (efficient but limited) - No semantic search capability - Knowledge must fit in token budget
Proposed Vector Database Architecture:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Financial Knowledge Base │
│ - Accounting standards (IFRS, GAAP, VAS) │
│ - Financial formulas & calculations │
│ - Industry benchmarks │
│ - Company policies & procedures │
│ - Historical analysis examples │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
↓ Embedding
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Vector Embedding Model (Sentence Transformers) │
│ Model: all-MiniLM-L6-v2 (384 dimensions) │
│ Text → Vector representation │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
↓ Store
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Vector Database (ChromaDB / Pinecone) │
│ ┌─────────────┬──────────────┬──────────────────┐ │
│ │ Document │ Embedding │ Metadata │ │
│ ├─────────────┼──────────────┼──────────────────┤ │
│ │ "EBITDA..." │ [0.2, -0.1,] │ {type: formula} │ │
│ │ "Gross..." │ [0.5, 0.3,] │ {type: metric} │ │
│ └─────────────┴──────────────┴──────────────────┘ │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
↓ Query
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ User Query: "How to calculate EBITDA?" │
│ ↓ │
│ Semantic Search (top 3 matches) │
│ ↓ │
│ Retrieved: EBITDA formula + examples + benchmarks │
│ ↓ │
│ Augment LLM Prompt with relevant docs │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Benefits: - Scalability: Support 1000+ financial concepts - Relevance: Only retrieve knowledge relevant to query - Token Efficiency: Don’t embed entire glossary - Updatable: Add new knowledge without code changes - Semantic Understanding: “profitability” matches “EBITDA”, “margins”
