Daily financial reports without wasting time

SAIO automates Postęp’s daily financial reporting by logging into SAP, downloading data, reshaping it into the required management format, and notifying users about ready reports, freeing the controlling team from repetitive work and reducing the risk of manual errors.

Case study

Business context

At Postęp, daily financial reporting was one of the key responsibilities of the controlling team. Preparing data for management required logging into the SAP system each time, manually downloading Excel files, formatting them, and distributing the reports. The repetitive nature of these tasks consumed around two hours every day, limiting the team’s capacity for analytical work and increasing the risk of errors.

Scope of automation

The designed robot has fully taken over the reporting process. Each day it logs into SAP, downloads financial data in XLS format, transforms it into the layout required by management, and automatically informs the user when the file is ready. The entire process runs in the background without any employee involvement.

Technologies used

SAIO Robotics, SAP, Microsoft Excel
