Common Business Issues • Customers manually create financial statements & books via data dumps and Excel manipulation • Painful • Time Consuming • Delays monthly closing • Reports lack integrity and end user interaction • Error prone due to manual processes • Consumers are locked into provided views • No ability to drill into details
