Precision Tune Auto Care
Each month Tim Thielke, the Senior Staff Accountant at Precision Tune Auto Care was exporting the income and expenses for each corporate owned

Acquiring new corporate owned stores was great for business; however the employees at Precision Tune Auto Care were spending approximately two full working days each month exporting financial information from their accounting system (Sage Pro Series) to an Excel spreadsheet.
