Intuit<\/a>\u00a0has introduced updated automated accounting features for its\u00a0QuickBooks<\/a>\u00a0product.<\/p>\n

The new enhancements are designed to offer companies the use of artificial intelligence (AI) automation to help eliminate the use of \u201cmultiple disconnected tools,\u201d Intuit said in a\u00a0news release<\/a>\u00a0Tuesday (July 29).<\/p>\n

\u201cAs businesses grow in size and complexity, we know that they need a financial technology platform that provides deeper customisation, enhanced automation and features to get critical jobs done,\u201d Ciar\u00e1n Quilty<\/a>, Intuit\u2019s senior vice president of international, said\u00a0in the release.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re committed to listening to our customers to help businesses and accountants work smarter, not harder, whilst gaining the financial expertise and confidence they need to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the updates is \u201cQuickBooks Payments,\u201d letting users connect their bank accounts to a \u201cpay now\u201d button on invoices to\u00a0reduce late payments<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In addition, Intuit now offers an AI-powered bank feed, aimed at addressing issues related to\u00a0categorizing bank transactions, which the company calls \u201cone of the most repetitive and error-prone tasks in accounting.\u201d<\/p>\n

This tool can learn from users\u2019 actions and suggest categories based on historical patterns, letting businesses streamline workflows and improve accuracy.<\/p>\n

These updates come one week after Inuit\u00a0added AI agents<\/a>\u00a0to its Enterprise Suite, which can handle routine accounting tasks and other duties.<\/p>\n

As PYMNTS wrote soon after that launch, tools like these are helping small medium-sized business (SMB) owners use AI to level the\u00a0accounting services playing field<\/a>, offering these smaller operations access to tools that were once solely the domain of large enterprises.<\/p>\n

\u201cAI will amplify the value of accounting services for SMBs,\u201d\u00a0Ariege Misherghi<\/a>, senior vice president and general manager of accounts payable, accounts receivable and accountant channel at Bill, said in an interview with PYMNTS.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce routine tasks like data extraction and\u00a0invoice processing<\/a>\u00a0are automated, accountants will be freed up to focus on higher value advisory work that only humans can provide: applying judgement, guiding SMBs through complex financial decisions and delivering strategic insights,\u201d Misherghi added.<\/p>\n

Lisa Huang<\/a>, senior vice president of product management at Xero, told PYMNTS that many accounting systems remain manual despite mounting external pressures for the industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe accounting and bookkeeping industry is at a turning point,\u201d Huang said. \u201cMany professionals are overworked and under-resourced, facing increasing client demand and rising pressure from evolving regulatory and compliance requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Intuit\u00a0has introduced updated automated accounting features for its\u00a0QuickBooks\u00a0product.
