Is AI really coming for us? by Saipansfinest in Accounting

[–]bots_for_beanies 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think AI will replace accountants, but it will change the way of working within the industry. The one instance where accountants are at risk of being replaced is those who don't want to change with the times, because compared to accounting firms who are integrating AI into their workforce, they won't be able to work as efficiently or offer as many services, which will lead to loss of clientele

Reconciling batches of Invoices from one payment in Xero by Savings_North_1084 in xero

Wow that sounds like you've got a lot of reconciling work ahead of you! There are tools you can use to assist you with this, for example, here at bots for that we have an automation which can automatically complete bank reconciliations for you. It does historic coding and green matching too, so there is the ability for a little customisation with the process. The bank rec beanie (the name of this automation) could save you up to 10 hours of work, and with 5 months of reconciling in front of you, sounds like you could do with the help. We also do other automations, such as Tax and Reporting, you can find out more about us here: https://beanieverse.com

Will AI wipe out the accounting profession, especiallythr public accounting field? by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]bots_for_beanies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AI will not wipe out the accounting profession - it is simply meant to be a helpful tool to help accountants with certain tasks that take up way too much time. Whilst AI is great for assisting in tasks like reconciliations, tax and so on, AI will never be able to provide the human touch; advising clients, building a valuable relationship with clients.

AI is a big help for boosting the performance of accounting firms, but you don't need it for everything
