Account to report

Account to report / Account-to-report (short: A2R) includes financial planning and financial forecast as well as cost accounting, the operating control system, period-end closing and reporting.

Digital processes refer to processes that the company uses to implement digitalization. Based on this, it is used for the internal digitalization. Usually they are implemented based on a business process map on different levels (e.g. level 1-5). Processes designed on level 1 are End-to-End (E2E) processes. Business Process Management (BPM) is the methodology to design and manage digital processes.

Why this is interesting for a Chief Digital Officer (CDO)?
End-to-end processes (E2E) are the operational foundation of any company. In order to be able to design them, modelling and management are essential. Accordingly, trade and manufacturing industries have different requirements for Level 1 processes. The most common processes can be found here in the glossary.
