Budgeting
Accountants love to budget in Excel due to its rich functionality and ease of use. However, there is also a problem with budgeting in Excel. The annual budget process can be a real chore. Most companies spend more than 90% of the weeks and months needed to create a budget copying, typing and crunching numbers, and less than 10% of the time analysing and understanding their company or departmental budget.
Turn those percentages around to make the budget process what it should be!
Many budget controllers will admit that despite Excel’s advantages it also has serious deficiencies:
– Failure to handle multidimensional organisations
– Formulas everywhere
– Difficult for multiple users to collaborate
– Slow turnaround
Excel is not the only problem - Budgeting in a Web-Browser has its own issues!
Many software providers have opted for a ‘web-browser only’ interface to their solutions.
In our opinion, although such systems set out to control unauthorised changes to budget templates and formulas, users end up preparing budgets outside such systems in Excel and then pasting the results into the corporate model.
