Wait? We're Doing What Now?
So I went to pull invoices a bit ago for something I track on a regular basis. Now, the AP clerks know I self-serve and dig my own crap out of their files. (I also put it back where I got it). And I kind of knew that they've been scanning invoices and such. However, no one has bothered to educate me as to exactly what is going on. At all. Until today. And I had to ask at that.
Yes, I get 'not more filing.' And sure, 'paperless' sounds nice. Until the auditors start asking for stuff. And gee, kids, does my boss or his boss (the BU controller) or the other controllers but really, they won't care because they don't feel audit pain like we do (location location location). And while I can sort of get most of the information I need (right now), my mind has jumped to certain types of audit requests (as in the external auditors) I end up taking care of. And my mind is stuck on, 'um, how the hell are we going to handle that now?' Short answer, they're going to get a big ole stack of requests from me asking them to pull stuff now that we've gone paperless. Longer answer, I need to have a chat with the bosses and make them aware of what is going on so they can ask questions about how we are supposed to find things now.
Communication around here is in a downward trend lately. Lately? Okay it's been going that way for a while. Sure I have great communications with my immediate unit (all three of us). But the other side of the fence communication with the platform stuff that is located right here quite frankly stinks. So this is just another example of messed up crap or things changing that aren't effectively being communicated. (and A lost Liss is a cranky Liss)
