Reconciliation Software: Streamline your Finance Processes

Increasing the finance team's responsibilities without increasing its size is one of the many difficulties CFOs face when addressing strategies for efficiency. Modern enterprises value insights from their finance team, such as those that assist in decision-making. This is what makes embracing automated solutions vital for growing businesses. Through the innovation of automated solutions, the efficiency of finance teams is improved whilst more time is freed for them to lend valuable insights into crucial decision-making processes.

In the retail sector, merchants rely on the uninterrupted operation of their point-of-sale (POS) systems through dependable switching services. Accurate processing in these systems is essential and should be monitored through critical financial reconciliations protocols. Finance teams usually rely on software to perform this reconciliation.

The objective of this process involves:

  1. The settlement of the transaction between the tender received by the bank to the retailer.
  2. Identifying settlement differences for follow-up.
  3. The substantiation of general ledger entries that have risen from the reconciliation process.
