Intercompany Accounting Processes

Question

Hi, I'm presently working on automating my company's intercompany accounting processes. I was hoping to get some inspiration on how others have used Alteryx for their Intercompany accounting needs. How have you utilized Alteryx? What processes or workflows have been especially helpful. Thank you!

Hello @hwofford001,

I've used Alteryx a lot for Journal Entries validations. Getting the entries data from the system, cleaning them up for the specified period, and reconciling the values with the trial balance.

Most of the process involved using data cleansing tools, formulas, and filters. In the end, I always use a Join tool with the account numbers as a key.

Some harder processes involved using PDF Inputs and Regex tools because the Trial Balance couldn't be extracted in a .csv or spreadsheet file.

Good luck with your process automation! If you end up having any questions, post them on the Designer forum and a lot of people will surely help you out!
