Map the current process
Follow one task from start to finish. Note the inputs, decisions, handovers and places where people repeat information.
Choose a bounded task
Start with a routine process whose rules can be written down. Keep exceptions visible and give someone responsibility for resolving them.
Define what good looks like
Decide how you will compare the new workflow with the current one. Track completion, corrections and time spent handling exceptions.
Keep a human handover
Make it clear when a workflow should stop and ask for help. A useful automation makes the work easier to understand as well as easier to complete.
When your accounting process needs custom software
If routine finance tasks depend on repeated exports, spreadsheets and manual handovers, map the full process before adding another tool. Customized accounting software can connect those steps around your approval rules and existing systems.

Choose a useful starting point
- Daily operations: route requests, send reminders and prepare routine updates.
- Inventory: flag low stock and coordinate replenishment with order and logistics data.
- Accounting: categorize recurring expenses and prepare invoices for review.
Choose one process with a clear owner and measurable friction. Compare time spent and corrections before extending it to other teams.
