The Consequences of Manual Finance
Be it a missed invoice, lost receipt, or late payment, it isn’t your finance team but the outdated system and manual processes.
Here’s what your business is grappled with when you manually manage your invoices:
- Vendor invoices enter the system three days late
- Receipts for field expenses are emailed, lost, then questioned
- Payment approvals pause every weekend
- Reports take hours to compile
- Audits bring dread and overtime
These are not small problems. And by the time you realise you're spending millions in salaries to fight fires created by bad systems, it’s too late. This is where Continia for Dynamics 365 Business Central comes to your rescue.
