Where Flann saves you time in Aryn
Small jobs, repeated often, are where the time goes. Here is how they change once Aryn is connected.
Chasing the unsigned agreements
Today
Every week a few agreements sit unsigned in Aryn. Working out who has not signed, and writing a polite nudge to each person, quietly eats the end of your Friday afternoon.
With Flann
“Which agreements in Aryn are still waiting for a signature?”
Open envelopes in Aryn come back as one list: who each is waiting on and how long it has been out. A short reminder is drafted for each signer, in the tone you use with customers and suppliers, and checked against what was already sent so nobody is nagged twice in a week.
What you stop doing: Keeping a mental list of who still owes you a signature stops being your job.
Turning supplier invoices into a list
Today
Paper and PDF invoices arrive all week. Someone has to copy the supplier, date, amount and due date into Aryn before anything can be paid.
With Flann
“Read this week’s supplier invoices in Aryn and tell me what’s due before month end.”
Scanned, photographed or emailed, each invoice goes through Aryn and comes back as supplier, number, amount and due date. You get one tidy list in the chat, sorted by what is due first.
What you stop doing: Copying invoice details into a spreadsheet one by one is something you leave behind.
