Oracle NetSuite webinar - The CFO's Case for Accounting Automation.

Preserve Cash Flow and Prep for the Future.

With ongoing inflation and talk of potential recession, finance leaders are preparing for whatever comes next—but that doesn’t mean neglecting your business needs. As the focus shifts from top-line growth to bottom line stability, automation can make or break your operations, and the benefits can really pay off—dramatically speeding accounts receivable and accounts payable, reducing overhead, and minimizing the risk of errors.

Our panelists share their perspectives on the current economic climate and the benefits of automation, including:
- Increasing visibility to enable better cash flow management.
- Reducing the time to close books.
- Preventing staff burnout by enabling them to work smarter, not harder.
- Minimizing resources needed to manage AR/AP.

The CFO's Case for Accounting Automation

In partnership with ACCA, we explore strategies to boost profitability without increased spending. And how becoming more efficient increases output, which is a driver for strengthening business resilience and ultimately, the bottom line.
In this session we share insights from leading experts on how to foster a culture that continuously seeks efficiency gains, setting smart KPIs and automating manual tasks.

Efficiency = more possibilities – CFOs and finance leaders are likely spending more time these days figuring out how to make the most of the team and technology resources they have available. They’re not alone. Purse strings have tightened, and CEOs and owners in many industries have asked their leadership teams for strategies to boost profitability without increased spending.

Discussion topics include: 
• Establishing a finance team culture that continuously seeks efficiency gains
• Developing ‘what-if’ scenarios and forecasting 
• Tracking the metrics that reflect real-time data.

Build resilience. Prepare ‘what ifs?’. Adapt in unpredictable times
