Where Flann saves you time in Parsio
Small jobs, repeated often, are where the time goes. Here is how they change once Parsio is connected.
Logging the day’s takings
Today
At closing you are meant to add takings, card totals and petty cash to a spreadsheet in Parsio. Tired, you skip it, and the gaps show up at month end.
With Flann
“Here’s the till slip. Add today’s totals to the takings sheet in Parsio.”
Cash, card and refund totals are read off the slip and matched to the columns already in your takings sheet in Parsio.
What you stop doing: Typing up the till slip after a long shift is off your list.
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 Parsio before anything can be paid.
With Flann
“Read this week’s supplier invoices in Parsio and tell me what’s due before month end.”
Scanned, photographed or emailed, each invoice goes through Parsio 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.
