As a result, it frees finance teams to interact with the budget contributors and to run infinite scenarios to help them make decisions- without worrying about the underlying model.
In just 30 minutes attendees will learn how these key reasons can guide them to a better budgeting, planning, and forecasting model to make more accurate and impactful decisions including how to:
- Seamlessly connect a general ledger to import a chart of accounts and trial balance;
- Leverage an easy quick start wizard to build a complete budget model in as little as five days;
- Maintain consistency and accuracy from multiple budget contributors working on the same model;
