The Essential Guide to Managing Expenses

Changeable. That’s one word to describe today’s business landscape. While change presents challenges to businesses, it can also open doors. As a finance leader, your company looks to you to provide strategic insights that drive business performance and growth - in addition to keeping the financial ship on an even keel. However, manual financial processes and disconnected systems may be holding you back.

Automating your financial processes gives you a clearer view of your financial position so you can better navigate whatever comes your way. The more you know, the better positioned you are to capitalise on moments of change. The ability to make quick decisions and act with certainty in the moment helps you scale for sustainable growth, avoid disruptions, and meet changing employee and customer expectations. Ask yourself these four questions:

• Is visibility into your financial position sufficient to answer any spending question?


• Can employees easily find and follow policies to prevent non-compliant spending?


• Are you reclaiming all eligible VAT and GST paid on company purchases?


• Does your team have time for projects that improve profitability and optimise performance?
