The invisible costs of financial accounting<\/i><\/b><\/h2>\nWhen we talk about the costs of financial accounting, most companies first think of personnel costs and software licenses. But the really relevant costs often remain invisible: lost time, missed opportunities and tied-up resources that could be put to more valuable use elsewhere. <\/span><\/i>\n\nAt Konsultec, we have developed a different approach: <\/span><\/i>FiBu as a Service<\/i><\/b> – a combination of state-of-the-art ERP technology and experienced accounting experts who take over your financial accounting completely.<\/span><\/i>\n

A day without FiBu as a Service: The fight against time<\/i><\/b><\/h2>\n07:30 a.m.: The paperwork begins<\/i><\/b> Martina M\u00fcller, an accountant at a medium-sized production company, starts with a mountain of paper. Sorting and checking incoming invoices, assigning cost centers – all manually. <\/span><\/i>\n\n09:15 a.m.: The release odyssey<\/i><\/b> Stapling routing slips to paper invoices, taking them to different departments. The production manager is in a meeting, the marketing manager is working from home. Tracking via Excel lists. <\/span><\/i>\n\n10:30 a.m.: Urgent interruptions<\/i><\/b> Suppliers call, the managing director urgently needs overviews. Martina constantly interrupts her work for searches and evaluations. <\/span><\/i>\n\n11:45 a.m.: Book at last<\/i><\/b> Manually enter 40 invoices per day: Supplier data, amounts, tax codes, cost centers. Maximum concentration required, but mistakes still happen. <\/span><\/i>\n\n13:15: Lunch break at the desk<\/i><\/b> Sandwich at the desk, working on emails at the same time. The tax consultant has urgent questions. <\/span><\/i>\n\n16:45: Month-end stress<\/i><\/b> Preparations under time pressure. As the daily accounting work takes up so much time, the month-end closing regularly leads to overtime. <\/span><\/i>\n\n18:30: End of a long day<\/i><\/b> Martina is one of the last to leave the office. Tasks are left undone and the backlog grows. The upcoming tax audit causes additional worries. <\/span><\/i>\n

A day with FiBu as a Service: focus on the essentials<\/i><\/b><\/h2>\n08:30 a.m.: Strategic start<\/i><\/b> Martina is now a financial controller. Her dashboard shows all the relevant key figures: Liquidity, open items, performance indicators. Operational accounting runs in the background at Konsultec. <\/span><\/i>\n\n09:15 a.m.: Digital invoice approval<\/i><\/b> Konsultec has already pre-entered invoices and AI-supported text recognition has extracted all the data. Martina checks the content and approves it with just a few clicks. <\/span><\/i>\n\n10:30 a.m.: Financial analysis instead of document processing<\/i><\/b> Contribution margin analysis for product groups, well-founded recommendations for the management – value-adding activities instead of data entry.<\/span><\/i>\n\n14:15: Strategy meeting<\/i><\/b> Martina presents financial analyses and contributes to important company decisions. Current figures from the ERP system provide a solid basis. <\/span><\/i>\n\n16:00: Update with Konsultec<\/i><\/b> 20-minute video call: invoice processing is running according to plan, month-end closing on schedule, optimization suggestions are discussed.<\/span><\/i>\n\n5:00 p.m.: Finishing time on time<\/i><\/b> Martina leaves the office relaxed. Month-end closing is completed on time – without overtime. The tax audit is no longer a worry. <\/span><\/i>\n
