How to think end-to-end about data for more efficient and accurate accounting, reporting and planning Finance is in most instances, a consumer of data produced in other parts of the organisation. The data used ‘within’ Finance is usually created in the transaction processing and accounting systems which record events initiated in business units and markets. While an insights or AI strategy for Finance is important, a solid data foundation is fundamental if these strategies are to succeed in powering insights or artificial intelligence (AI).
If Finance teams are looking to improve their processes, addressing data is an imperative and data quality, definitions and automating pipelines are priorities.
