The manual process today
Tracking a portfolio's accounts by hand means keeping your own watch list, re-searching each company on a schedule, opening every new filing, and copying the figures into a spreadsheet — because nothing tells you when a new årsregnskap lands.
| Step | Manual action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Keep your own list of companies to watch |
| 2 | Re-search each in Regnskapsregisteret on a schedule |
| 3 | Open the latest årsregnskap |
| 4 | Compare key figures against last time |
| 5 | Maintain your own spreadsheet |
| 6 | No notification when new accounts are filed |
Step 1 — Keep your own list of companies to watch
Maintain your own list of the organisasjonsnummer you care about — the registry has no concept of a watch list.
Step 2 — Re-search each in Regnskapsregisteret on a schedule
Re-search each company in Regnskapsregisteret on a schedule you set yourself.
Step 3 — Open the latest årsregnskap
Open the latest filed årsregnskap for each company and read the figures.
Step 4 — Compare key figures against last time
Compare the key figures — revenue, result, balance-sheet total — against the values you recorded last time.
Step 5 — Maintain your own spreadsheet
Copy the figures into your own spreadsheet, the only place the history actually lives.
Step 6 — Re-check by hand, since there is no notification
Re-check by hand on every cycle: there is no notification when a new set of accounts is filed.
