Traditional accounting processes are outdated and insufficient for modern businesses. What should be a quick 2-minute chat over an automated accounting platform can turn into a prolonged manual back-and-forth, in a tradition process.
By the time the accounting team reaches the reports, the monthly deadline is close, and they have to wage a constant uphill battle as the deadline nears. As a result, the accounting team is left with no time to analyze, draw insights, and enable optimizations that can improve financial performance and thereby the bottom line.
How about streamlining every manual task so you spend minimal time on administrative tasks like data collection and report making, and maximum time on the tasks that matter most: closing the books faster, finding insights, and delivering value?
Automation makes this possible.
Accounting Automation with Back Office Accountants:
By automating all the manual tasks related to AP, AR, and reconciliation, automated accounting technology helps you close your books faster and gives your accounting team maximum time to deliver value through efficient and accurate financial and accounting management.
However, not all businesses are yet fully equipped to automate their accounting processes due to a lack of resources and budget constraints.
If you are one of them, Back Office Accountants come to your rescue. In this blog, we touch upon the challenges of traditional accounting processes our clients used to face before they outsourced accounting automation to us and then communicate the benefits they accrued with our services.

Problems Faced with Traditional Accounting Processes:
From data entry to data consolidation, approvals to reconciliation, and report generation, businesses had to spend massive amounts of time at each phase of the traditional accounting process. While automation in invoice capture and data consolidation may provide a few benefits, the other processes still take up a massive amount of time, further reducing the effectiveness of these automation tools. All these problems also come at the cost of maintaining an in-house team while coping with issues of time, accuracy, and potential errors.
