Automation resolves the most common struggle between sales and accounting teams. Not automating the flow of sales data from a CRM, like Salesforce, into an ERP, like Odoo, leads to time-wasting complications. Rather than concentrating on closing more deals, the sales team gets bogged down in clarifying new contracts and updating accounts for accounting. Meanwhile, accounting gets frustrated by not having the proper numbers to create invoices and project incoming cash flows. Further, until all sales info properly loads in their ERP, accounting can’t process commissions. It’s all a big, inefficient mess.
Enhancing your sales team's deal-closing process through efficient automation is essential for business development. Such advancement eradicates the pitfalls and monotony of manual data entry for the accounting team, propelling the company toward growth. Without automation from Salesforce, Accounting teams are required to embark on the laborious task of manual re-entry into Odoo. This disconnected process wastes time and requires accounting teams to manually reenter a client’s account data, contact information, sales quotes, and product subscription information for every new deal. The ongoing nature of this process leads to data errors and extensive back-and-forth communication between sales and accounting for clarification.
To drive business growth, sales teams need to focus on closing deals, and accounting teams should embrace automation to eliminate manual data entry tasks, saving both time and money. Data integration experts at Flexspring have created a solution - an Odoo integration with Salesforce. This integration streamlines data between the two apps, creating a seamless flow of information between sales and accounting teams. Integration serves as a connecting bridge between the two apps, allowing for data to automatically sync across platforms, eliminating the need for clarification between departments. Sales data smoothly integrates into accounting records, eradicating the requirement for manual data entry and minimizing the possibility of errors.
