The pandemic accelerated the digitisation process in the accounting sector in Poland!
There is no need to convince anyone that digitisation is needed, but unfortunately, many companies still have concerns about implementation. - Digitisation is like Yeti; everyone has heard of it, but most have not seen it and thus are reluctant to introduce it - Marcin Pichur, vice president at DocuWere, one of the experts participating in the panel brought in a more humorous note. Concerns often arise from a lack of knowledge and limited confidence in digital security. According to an experienced consultant, digital documents are much safer than traditional paper. Marcin Pichur supports accounting offices in turning piece into smart documents and digital transformation. He encouraged to opt for digital.
