The Challenge
As international operations expanded, Duratuf Global Trading L.L.C. faced increasing complexity in managing its financial and accounting processes. The organization relied heavily on manual bookkeeping and spreadsheets, which made it difficult to track receivables, payables, and cash flow in real time.

Additionally, generating timely and accurate financial reports for management and decision-making became challenging, impacting financial visibility and operational control in a fast-moving global trading environment.
