Challenges at Structure Properties

For Finance:

  • Company followed completely manual and Excel based reconciliation methods which were cumbersome and time consuming.
  • Multiple property managers would create expenses for Different properties on the corporate card. The finance team had to follow up with each of them to understand the spend and its purpose.
  • Finance team had to dedicate hours just to match expenses of a single card and separate personal spends from company spends.
  • The process of moving credit card data to their accounting system took more than a month.

For employees:

  • The property managers often could not remember the purpose of the spend and would be unable to classify them.
  • Constant follow-ups by the finance team affected productivity.

The other solutions forced us to change our processes instead of automating it. We wanted something flexible and Fyle was just that.

Why Structure Properties chose Fyle?

The goal was to transition from a totally manual and traditional expense management process to a modern and automated system.

The finance team spent productive hours chasing employees to fill in the missing gaps like purpose of the spend. They also manually reconciled all the corporate card expenses.

With Fyle, David believed the current expense management challenges could be tackled with ease for both, the finance team and on-ground employees. This would lead to immediate positive impact on the cash flow.
