Automating Accounts Payable & Receivable for a Mid-Sized Financial Firm
The Infomaze One back-office finance team helped a growing financial services company transform its AP/AR processes through precision-driven automation and dedicated support. With a tailored approach combining trained professionals, real-time reporting and secure integration, we eliminated manual bottlenecks and enabled the client to regain control of their financial operations with accuracy, speed and cost-efficiency.

Client Overview
Our client is a mid-sized financial services firm based in New York, specializing in investment consulting, portfolio management, and financial planning for high-net-worth individuals and SMEs. With increasing transaction volumes and limited internal bandwidth, the company faced growing pressure on its finance back-office operations.
Despite having tools like QuickBooks and Zoho Books, the absence of structured automation and dedicated processing teams was stalling progress.
The Challenges Faced By the Client
As the company scaled, its internal finance operations began to show cracks. Manual processes could not keep up with the volume, leading to delays, errors and rising costs.
Time-Consuming Manual Data Entry
Processing invoices and customer receipts manually consumed excessive man-hours and was prone to errors, leading to payment delays and rework cycles.
Delayed Financial Reporting
End-of-month reconciliation processes were frequently pushed into the following month, delaying key financial reports and limiting the management team’s ability to make timely decisions.
Staff Burnout Due to Repetitive Work
The finance team was overwhelmed with monotonous tasks such as invoice matching, validation, and data entry—resulting in fatigue, decreased morale, and high turnover risk.
Lack of Real-Time Financial Visibility
Without centralized and updated data, leadership had limited visibility into receivables and payables—impacting forecasting, vendor management, and cash flow planning.
High Operational Overhead
The growing business demanded more processing capacity, but internal costs kept rising without a proportional increase in productivity or financial accuracy.
