CROP's financial experts can get more done now that tax returns are processed automatically
CROP offers a wide range of financial services. One of these is filing tax returns for accounting partners. With CROP's tax expertise, clients can optimize their tax expenses. Every year, the company has to process thousands of tax returns in the first quarter, causing the workload to skyrocket. With the help of Yarado, CROP has managed to save a great deal of time and can now offer their clients better service, while also eliminating errors in the filing process.
Each tax return took about twenty minutes, which meant that CROP had huge amounts of repetitive work to get through every year in Q1, and they were using overqualified accountants to do it. Due to the repetitive nature of the work and the time pressure involved, errors were made. By automating this process, CROP was able to process client tax refunds faster without compromising on quality.
How CROP worked before Yarado
Before CROP automated its processes, it required tax advisors to manually check tax refunds. This took hours and caused a lot of frustration among staff, which was also reflected in the quality of the work. Time and again, tax advisors had to log into the system to see what kind of refund needed to be processed for an account. After finding the account, they had to enter several inputs, such as a social security number and the tax year, and select the correct template for the task. Based on the selection, the system generated a PDF, which had to be opened and saved. The advisor then had to send the agreement and refund in an email format.
Yarado has fully automated this process, from identifying exceptions to sending out the refund. This has saved CROP a massive amount of time, as well as many return emails in cases where errors had been made. Furthermore, advisors can now focus on adding value to the company and engaging more with clients. Additionally, more software robots can be deployed when the workload increases. CROP is now, and in the future, equipped with the virtual help that was sorely needed.
Wat het oplevert
CROP has experienced various benefits from the automation initiative. Advisors no longer spend hours behind a screen performing the same actions over and over. Repetitive tasks are now handled automatically, which keeps employees satisfied and motivated. In addition, it saves a significant amount of time during the busy periods when CROP has to process tax returns for its many clients. This allows CROP to save both money and time, while ensuring processes are error-free.
For CROP's clients, the benefit of this automation is primarily felt in the fact that tax refunds are processed faster than before. Entrepreneurs who receive money back from the government after filing their tax returns now have access to it sooner than if CROP had not switched to automation.
