It’s a familiar scene: With month-end closes on the horizon, weary accountants in the midst of manual calculations and redundant processes wonder: Why didn’t my company automate?

In light of growing demands to streamline accounting practices, IMA partnered with BlackLine to produce a study on process automation in accounting and finance.

Key Findings:

• Two-thirds of the respondents said they rely heavily on spreadsheets, increasing both time spent on financial statements as well as the risk of inaccurate results.
• Only 20% of those surveyed were very satisfied with their current closing process, and only 28% completely trust the accuracy of their financial reporting data.
• Only about a third of the companies surveyed have automated some part of their accounting processes in the last year.
