Our company operates Sage Line 50, with three people providing input -
me: payroll and Job Costing, the MD: sales invoices and our
book-keeper: purchase invoices, nominal and cash.
Our book-keeper - a lady in her late 50s - keeps separate books
containing every transaction ever made and her month end
reconciliation is a masterpiece of detail to the point of obsessive
compulsion... This process usually takes between two and three weeks
to complete.
Part of this compulsion results in her not allowing the posting of any
of the following months transactions until she has finished her opus.
This did not used to cause any problems before we became fully
computerised but is now providing endless hassles.
How can we persuade her that a new months transactions will have
little or no effect on her beloved Period End? Being nice middle-class
males, we are trying to avoid conflict and tears - so any suggested
responses should not involve the F word.
Thanks for your help.
