A business is a hive, made from working components called processes – each a compartment in its own that fits into the structural makeup of that enterprise. When a directive of efficiency governs these processes, the end result is simply better business.
Perhaps the most vital of a business’s inner components is the accounting department. And it’s here that outdated processes often prevail because when there’s money involved, owners are often hesitant to interrupt proven ways of accounting operations, no matter how inefficient they may be.
Let’s talk here about solving slow and inaccurate money management with accounting automation tools. Because especially in that accounting component, efficiency is key to making the hive more profitable, and that’s the greatest return there is.
What is accounting automation?
Accounting automation is the use of software to automate the tasks of accounting. This can include anything from basic bookkeeping and transactions to more complex areas such as financial reporting and analysis.
There are many benefits to automating your accounting processes, including improved accuracy, efficiency, and compliance. Additionally, automation can help to free up time for you and your staff so that you can focus on other aspects of your business.

Once you have installed the DOKKA platform, you will need to implement it within your business. This process can be divided into four main stages: data entry, workflow automation, financial reporting and analysis, and compliance.
Data entry
Data entry is the first stage of automation and involves inputting all of your financial data into the accounting software. This data can include transactions, invoices, receipts, bank statements, and more. Once this data has been entered, it can then be used to automate other aspects of your accounting process.
Workflow
Workflow automation is the second stage of automation and refers to automating the tasks involved in your accounting process. This can include things such as creating invoices, making payments, issuing refunds, and more. Automating these tasks can free up time for you and your staff to focus on other aspects of your business.
Financial reporting
Financial reporting and analysis is the third stage of automation and involves using the data entered into the accounting software to generate financial reports. These reports can be used to monitor your business’s performance, identify areas of improvement and make decisions about where to allocate resources.
Compliance
Compliance is the fourth stage of automation and refers to ensuring that your business meets all relevant regulatory requirements. This can include things such as filing tax returns, preparing financial statements, and maintaining records of transactions. By automating your compliance processes, you can ensure that your business remains compliant with all relevant laws and regulations.
The automation of the accounting process can offer many benefits to your business. By selecting the right software and implementing it within your business, you can improve your accuracy, efficiency, and compliance, freeing up time for you and your staff to focus on other aspects of your business.
