Finance operations workflow suite

Finance reporting automation Internal work sample

Automated three recurring finance tasks: alerts when relevant files change, a searchable email record and collection of supplier price lists for reconciliation.

  1. The problem

    Document changes went unnoticed, email evidence remained in individual inboxes and supplier price lists required manual collection.

  2. My role

    Routed SharePoint file-change alerts to the users who must act.

  3. Where it stands

    The standing flows surface file changes, create queryable evidence logs and collect supplier price lists without manual handling.
