Re-thinking the month-end close, while working remotely 2 Credits 2 Credits
Finance teams have had to adapt to closing the books remotely as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, piling pressure on this crucial process. It's been a learning experience, but best practices are emerging. Given the level of detail involved, closing the books even under normal circumstances can be complex and cumbersome. Sometimes, companies have data in multiple systems which adds even more complexity. Now, finance workers remain in separate places because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Closing the books remotely adds another layer of challenge.Â
Most companies have a documented monthly close process in place. The Covid-19 pandemic has changed the way accounting departments can close the books for the month. With companies employing a combination of a remote workplace, with a hybrid workplace, there can be a disconnect among the members of the accounting team regarding the best methods to use to close the books monthly.Â
