Manual To Automation - Reducing Data Entry From 30 Hrs To 2 Hrs
Manual To Automation - Reducing Data Entry From 30 Hrs To 2 Hrs
Before implementing Lightyear, Wishlist faced multiple challenges with its AP process. Wishlist’s accounts team spent upwards of 30 hours per month manually entering invoices into MYOB. This process was error-prone and costly. Wishlist also faced challenges with lost and duplicate documents, manually reconciling supplier statements and routing invoices to relevant approvers promptly and efficiently. These challenges lead the Finance team to explore new, innovative solutions to streamline their Accounts Payable.

Overcoming Staff Resistance To Streamline Their AP Processes
Tara encountered two main challenges regarding staff buy-in: the old system "worked fine"; and Lightyear was feared to be too complicated for people to adjust. To overcome these concerns, Tara took advantage of Lightyear's 30-day free trial and Let's Get Going implementation team. She used this time to show the staff how Lightyear could help save time and costs. The team realised their rapid growth required a better system before further expansion could happen. Ultimately, this led to successful staff engagement and understanding of the new business process and the value Lightyear delivers.
Since implementing Lightyear, Wishlist has achieved an average of 20 - 30% savings on their monthly costs, slashed approval time by 70%, reduced reporting time by 75%, and increased overall efficiency by 79.3%.
