Has year end compensation planning left you with Post Traumatic Spreadsheet Disorder (PTSD)?

Managing your company’s compensation through spreadsheets is dangerous.

 

Drawbacks include:

 

1. Multiple Users – When more than one user can modify a spreadsheet, it increases the chance of error.

 

2. Version Control – How do you track which version is correct?

 

3. Calculation/Formula Errors – How can you be sure the calculations within a spreadsheet are accurate?

 

4. Lack of Auditability – How can you track who did what and when?

 

5. Security Risk – Risks of hacking don’t just happen in the office and Business Email Compromise is always a threat.

 

Managing sensitive and confidential compensation data including salaries, budgets, and commissions that are stored in disparate spreadsheets, accessible to multiple users, and shared via email, presents a huge security risk.

 

Are you aware that more than 90% of spreadsheets contain serious errors, yet more than 90% of users believe theirs are without error*?
