The solution
Saving time during consolidation
Lucanet was quick to be found and implemented, and in no time, the entire consolidation process was newly devised in a more efficient manner. And now, before their eyes, the desired figures are available on time every month. It’s all straightforward, automatic, and one less stress during the consolidation process. “Lucanet’s ease of use is a real winner for our whole team. Be it monthly or lump sum consolidation during the year or paired consolidation at year’s end, the sky is the limit,” rejoices Oliver Haug, responsible for Group Accounting and International Controlling at Metabo.
Forecasts and planning are also run through Lucanet, whose integrated planning forms and planning wizards support efficient preparation of the figures. “Our balance sheet and cash flow planning have been simplified considerably,” says Haug. The reporting process is facilitated by the centralization of the actual and planning data within one database, as well as the ready-made report structures, which can be easily tailored to individual circumstances. Today at Metabo, even the most complex financial relationships can be prepared in a straightforward and traceable manner – be it for internal use or for third parties, such as auditors.
