Gain 70% Faster Financial Close with Automated Reconciliation Platform
Is your monthly financial close a predictable sprint or a stressful marathon? For those in B2B sectors like travel, retail or manufacturing, the finance and accounts team runs a stressful marathon every month-end. Buried under a pile of sheets, fragmented data, and constant reconciliation errors drains the time and efforts of the resources involved. This manual financial close simultaneously hinders cash flow and puts the entire financial operation at risk. It not only hampers growth but also complicates reporting and audits. Finance leaders are now in search of a transformation that will help them get rid of fragmented data, persistent errors, and delayed insights. Modern transaction complexities, inevitable discrepancies, non-compliance, and fraud have led to the need for smart solutions. With automated reconciliation platforms like FinRecon, we can fasten the financial close by at least 70%. Businesses can tailor reconciliation rules to fit specific needs. The platform automatically matches corresponding entries, eliminating the need for manual intervention and minimising errors. Let’s check in detail how FinRecon helps achieve faster financial close with FinRecon. Why is manual reconciliation inherently slow? The delay in financial close is due to siloed data sources, missing transactions, timing differences, unexpected audit findings and control deficiencies. Every business that continues to follow the manual methods of reconciliation struggles with: What are the hidden costs of a slow financial close? It is not just about the high costs involved in a slow financial close, but it is also about lost opportunities and significant business risks. 3 Steps to Eliminate Manual Reconciliation with FinRecon Automated Reconciliation Platform rectifies these issues by executing a streamlined process, enabling the finance team to skip manual data preparation entirely: Step 1: Automated Data Ingestion and Centralisation FinRecon uses API-driven ingestion to connect and gather data directly from all sources, such as POS, e-commerce, banking, invoices, GL, subledgers, and ERPs. This centralises all financial data in real-time, validating and standardising the format instantly for reconciliation. Step 2: Intelligent Matching Rules at Scale The platform applies intelligent algorithms to match transactions across multiple data sets instantly. The user can define one or more custom conditions under which the data can be reconciled. It handles complex scenarios like multi-way matching (e.g., invoice, bank statement, and ledger) and automatically manages tolerance levels for minor variances. Step 3: Efficient Exception Handling and Real-Time Visibility Unmatched items are automatically flagged, triaged, and routed to assigned case managers in real-time. The platform streamlines the management of exceptions by often providing potential reasons for the mismatch and routing them through defined workflows for quick resolution. Real-Time Visibility and Monitoring dashboards offer a clear overview of reconciliation progress, ensuring proactive intervention and keeping the financial close on schedule. Achieving the 70% Faster Close with FinRecon By replacing the manual, error-prone workflow with the automated reconciliation platform, businesses instantly shift their operating model.
