AP used to consume 50% of Rachel’s working week.

Before Lightyear, she spent about 7 minutes on one invoice. Across roughly 100 invoices a month, that added up to over 11 hours of manual data entry alone.

Since integrating Lightyear with Xero, that's down to a quarter. Here's what else changed πŸ‘‡

βœ… Only 25% of her week is spent on AP work

Australian finance teams, before you close the books on FY26, this one's for you.

End of financial year doesn't just surface the cracks in your AP process, it amplifies them πŸ‘‡

⏳ Approvals stalling

πŸ˜… Reconciliation turning into a last-minute scramble

These problems aren't new β€” June just makes them louder.

Take 5 minutes to audit the parts of your AP process that tend to break under pressure. It might flag something worth fixing before FY27 starts.

Opening a new venue is one of the most exciting milestones in hospitality. But it comes with a question most operators don't want to ask: Do we need to hire another person just to keep up?

Graham Dyer, Partner at AAB, has seen it first-hand. The good news? With the right processes in place, his clients are opening new sites with full confidence β€” without the pressure of expanding their finance team.

Our free guide, which features Graham, dives deep into exactly this challenge β€” how hospitality businesses are tackling staffing pressures through smarter back-office processes πŸ‘‰ https://ow.ly/g1EK50YXEbk

Australian finance teams β€” last chance to register for our live EOFY webinar ⏰

On Tuesday, we're showing you how to end FY26 in control and start FY27 ahead of the curve.

Not a hypothetical "what if" session. A live look at how automated AP actually holds up when the volume spikes and the timeline tightens, built around the three things that quietly compound EOFY workload every single year.

If you've ever finished an EOFY thinking "we need to sort this out before next June", this session is for you.

πŸ—“οΈ Tuesday 9 June, 11 am AEST, 45 mins
