How AI and automation solve real business problems

What sits beneath management accounting reports: line items, dimensions, posting rules for bank and warehouse transactions, indirect cost allocation and month-end close. Whether to keep the books in 1C or build a model on top of it.

What a CRM needs to do for a sales team: pipeline stages with transition criteria, conversion and time in each stage. How to build plan vs. actual and a forecast, and how to spot stalled deals.

What the production layer adds on top of accounting: bills of materials, routings, material requirements planning and job costing. How ERP differs from MES and APS, and why projects break down on production standards.

How long a project actually takes, why it runs over budget, and what breaks an implementation inside a working company: dirty master data, migrating balances, and no owner after go-live.
