Reconciling balance sheet accounts can be time-consuming, tedious, and inefficient. Your accounting team spends days per account, every month, compiling and reviewing mountains of data. And this inefficiency only grows as your business does. Opt to harness the power of software robots to lower accounting costs, complete key processes in 1/10 of the time, and free up key resources for other projects.
Oftentimes, balance sheet reconciliation is pushed off until the end of the month - and for good reason! It consumes so much time and energy, it’s simply not possible to manage the process weekly.
But what if your team could just plug and play the program in the click of a button? What if they could get access to all the relevant information, at their fingertips, in under an hour? And what if, thanks to this advanced insight, they could correct mistakes upstream 3+ weeks ahead of time?
That’s exactly what you can accomplish with a software bot. After the initial set up, the new and improved automation runs on your schedule, yielding results in the time it takes for an employee to take their lunch break
Once your robots are built, they get to work accomplishing the following:
Your bot immediately discovers and logs the desired balance sheet accounts. They then create that month’s folder with a sub-folder, titled ‘Subsidiary backup files.’
This standard reconciliation template can be tailored to your organization, and it is formed with account details, as well as the GL balance.
Bot reviews corresponding Subsidiary ledger balances, as well as all transactions making up each balance, and brings them into the reconciliation files.
Bot creates a summary file which includes all reconciliation templates (labeled under individual tabs), a summary sheet listing the GL, and all subsidiary balances by account for easy review.
After initial set up, your bot will run the above process weekly. By shortening the review process and highlighting corrective action on a weekly basis, your accounting team can stay up to date, with all necessary information to action at their disposal.
What previously took 3 laborious days of employee time to complete now takes your bot a couple of hours. By harnessing the power of automation, you can dedicate workers - and their productivity - away from administrative, routine tasks and into areas of high growth for your business.
The time when your accounting team scrambled to chase an entity 3 weeks after a problem first arose is long gone. By running and executing processes weekly, your bot can alert and flag any problems without lag time, so your team can begin troubleshooting immediately.
