At Accenture Solutions Pvt. Ltd., I managed supplier helpdesk operations and high-volume invoice processing in SAP, while working with Procurement, Finance, and Treasury to resolve payment issues. I recovered $3M+ from an incorrect vendor payment through account analysis and cross-functional coordination.

I also standardized vendor statement reconciliations, reducing monthly inflow by 50%, and collaborated with the automation team to enable 80% automation. Earlier, I processed Accounts Payable transactions at Capgemini Technology Services India Ltd. and IBM India Pvt. Ltd., including month-end close activities and vendor reconciliations.
