Planning for 2025: the role of supplier statements

Planning ahead means ensuring your financial records are accurate and up to date. Dext’s new Supplier Statements feature is a game-changer. It extracts and verifies supplier statement data, ensuring you always have a clear view of your payables. With automated matching of invoices to supplier accounts, you can trust that no discrepancies will slip through, giving you the confidence to make informed financial decisions.

Why plan now?

The sooner you integrate tools like Dext into your processes, the better positioned you’ll be for success in 2025 and beyond. As an innovation-driven firm, we at LWA understand how vital it is to adapt and evolve. By adopting a proactive approach to financial management, you can streamline your operations, improve accuracy, and make data-driven decisions that support your growth ambitions.

 

Saving time where it counts

Time is often the most limited resource for business owners. By automating receipt processing, approval workflows, and supplier statement reconciliation, Dext empowers you to reclaim hours previously spent on manual finance tasks.
