The monthly pack, assembled for you

A firm rebuilds the same client report from scratch every month, copying the same numbers from the same places by hand. Here is the build that gathers and assembles the pack for them, ready to review.

Illustrative example build. The figures are typical for a practice of this size, not measured results from a specific client.

The problem

The same report, the same numbers, the same copy and paste, every single month

The monthly pack pulled from the same sources each time. Building it meant opening each one, copying the figures across, laying them out the same way as last month, and writing a few lines of commentary.

It was hours of careful, repetitive work, and being manual it was easy to transpose a number or miss a source when the month was busy.

What we built

Gathered, laid out and checked, ready for your eye

The pack assembles itself on a schedule, but you review the finished result and sign off the commentary before it reaches the client. You are checking a draft, not building one.

The numbers, gathered for you

Figures are pulled from Xero and your other sources on a set schedule, assembled into the same pack each month, and checked for obvious gaps before you see it.

Commentary drafted, movements flagged

A short draft commentary is written and anything that has moved unusually is flagged for your attention, so you review and sign off rather than start from a blank page.

What changed
  • The monthly build drops from hours to a review of a finished draft.
  • The numbers come from the source the same way every time, so there is less room for a slip.
  • A person still reviews the pack and signs off the commentary before it goes to the client.
