If you could improve month-end close, how would that look for you? Let’s see how this can be achieved…

Like that time in Friends when Rachel drunkenly calls Ross and announces “and that, my friend, is CLOSURE.” we all appreciate the satisfaction that comes from successfully closing something down. (Although, in Rachel’s case she didn’t feel quite the same sober!).

In the world of finance, closure is a familiar and critical process we carry out monthly, quarterly and annually, often a time consuming and complex task that takes longer than we’d like to complete.

If there were a way of shortening the process and improving month-end close, how beneficial could that be for you and your business efficiency?

Let us introduce you to Sage Intacct – the best-in-class financial software, designed to streamline processes, improve efficiency and help your business achieve profitable growth.

Want to achieve a month end process improvement?

Remember how none of the ‘Friends’ knew or understood Chandler Bing’s job? (apparently it was in ‘statistical analysis and data reconfiguration’ FYI).

Well, we think financial leaders responsible for the month-end processes would totally get it; it’s no easy task and takes (most would say) too much of their and the finance team’s time to complete.

While the actual close process varies from business to business, shared pain points around it include:

Having to rely on disparate systems across departments
Manual revenue recognition
Tracking multiple sets of accounts from multiple entities
A lack of integration within different business systems

We could continue, but if you’re still here, the chances are you could list your own set of month-end close process frustrations, right?

In the words of Mr Bing himself, “could it be” any easier?

To shorten and improve month-end close processes in your business requires a modern, flexible financial management solution such as Sage Intacct.

Ask yourself “How you doin’?” with your month-end close…

The first step to figuring out how you can improve month-end close and reduce the time it takes is to ask the Joey Tribianni favoured question of “how you doin’?” at the moment.
