Here’s How CFOs Can Regain Control and Ensure Compliance

Inaccurate books and unresolved accounting backlogs can create serious financial risks—especially when it comes to audits, tax filings, and investor confidence.

At Stratify, we specialize in helping businesses clean up months (or even years) of accounting backlog across major ERP systems like SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage and Zoho.

Here are five key actions CFOs and Finance Leaders should take to eliminate backlog and restore financial integrity:

1. Diagnose the Source of the Backlog

Before fixing the problem, identify what caused it: system issues, team bandwidth, process gaps, or rapid business growth.

2. Prioritize Critical Transactions

Start with areas that directly impact compliance and reporting—VAT entries, intercompany balances, fixed assets, and payroll accruals.

3. Use the Power of Your ERP System

Whether you’re on SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, Sage or Zoho, we deploy automation and structured workflows to clear the backlog quickly and accurately.

4. Prepare for Audits and Tax Filings

Backlog clean-up must align with statutory audit requirements, corporate tax filing timelines, and FTA compliance in the UAE.

5. Prevent Future Backlogs

Once the past is cleaned up, we design improved processes and controls to ensure real-time, ongoing accounting accuracy.

At Stratify, our team of qualified accountants and ERP specialists deliver end-to-end backlog accounting services—so you can focus on growth, not clean-up.
