Process Engineering
Our team of accountants and Odoo accounting experts will help you to improved your entire accounting workflow. We have consulted with clients who have implemented Odoo but lack a complete understanding of how to maximize it's features for accounting. In some cases we are engaged to perform bookkeeping tasks but find that there is a great need to improve the process within the company. We can help to automate AP / AR entries, tax remittances, expense collection, and financial end of month processes. Many of our clients come to us frustrated with inefficiencies in their accounting team. To solve this problem we will serve as your CFO for a few months while we identify and fix process gaps.
