Alteryx

Three ERPs, three trial balances, three formats. One Alteryx workflow maps SAP, Oracle and NetSuite trial balances to a single master chart of accounts, tax-sensitises them in the same flow, and produces one master trial balance with the accounts that need tax analysis identified, in under a second.
