Accountant at a company with a slow ERP and chaotic close process is expected to reconcile 22 GLs and 11 bank accounts in a single spreadsheet with barely any training, while AR/AP closes later, leading to missed deadlines and blame.

The existing ERP is slow and inadequate for bank reconciliation, so they rely on a complex 'Frankenrec' spreadsheet that is not purpose-built, lacks automation, and does not integrate with AR/AP close timelines.
