Digital technology has proved to have a massive positive impact on the Finance and Accounting function. Research shows that Finance and Accounting is one of the most manual-processing intensive functions in business, second only to HR. This means that the ability of technologies like RPA and Machine Learning to automate repetitious tasks and eliminate human error are particularly relevant here. In addition, the ability to activate digital workers with specific skills from the Cloud to cover seasonal workload peaks like quarter or year end brings much-appreciated flexibility.
