Automate Your Accounting Processes

The practice of accounting is being transformed in all directions with the advent of the fourth industrial revolution. Several studies that assess the impacts of digital transformation on the labor market stipulate that jobs traditionally held by accountants will be abolished and replaced by technologies promoting digitalization and process automation.
