Finance Ai Lab

Practical finance automation projects for month-end close, reconciliations, ERP data quality, VAT/EFD controls, intercompany matching, and audit-ready reporting.

Built by Zahidah C. Murira — senior finance leader and finance automation builder with experience across multi-entity reporting, audit, tax, treasury, ERP migration, inventory costing, and operational finance.

Why this lab exists

Finance teams do not only need dashboards. They need controlled workflows that turn messy ERP exports, spreadsheets, reconciliations, tax checks, and close evidence into reliable management information.

This lab showcases practical finance automation work built around real finance problems:

• monthly close delays
• intercompany mismatches
• ERP data quality gaps
• VAT / EFD / tax control risks
• audit evidence scattered across files and systems
• manual reporting cycles that repeat every month
