Gobi Cashmere USA

Automating Daily Cash-Flow Reporting

Problem

The accounting team manually categorized bank transactions using color codes, added category totals, and copied the results into the daily cash-flow report. The process was repetitive, time-consuming, and exposed to mechanical errors.

Work

Built a structured Excel file where bank statement data could be pasted directly.

Result

The reporting process changed from almost a full working day of manual work to approximately 30 minutes.
