Sans code ni gluten
Rédigé le 14 mars 2022
Drums and trumpets! We are opening 4 new positions in our digital transformation team, doubling the current team, in order to increase our impact on process automation in SMEs.
Based on our existing expertise, that of integrating cloud financial systems, and given the growing needs of our clients, who juggle a multitude of applications and misaligned processes, we decided to push our intervention further.
We are therefore recruiting 4 positions:
- Digital Transformation Advisor
- Automation Specialist (No Code)
- Specialist in business intelligence (BI)
- Specialist in ERP implementation
What is Codeless?
That’s literally what it says, the objective is to program data paths without even touching code, in order to resolve concrete business problems quickly and at lower cost in the medium/long term, pending of a solution that requires “real” programming. Moreover, the technology research and consulting firm Gartner predicts that 80% of technological tasks will be carried out by non-specialized people by 2024.
I have a developer friend who once told me that he loved it when his clients presented him with an Excel file to code into something more robust and integrated, since the business rules were already well established.
Programming without code is a bit like that, it’s drawing paths to exploit over-the-counter software, which already exposes their APIs and makes mass imports possible, without necessarily investing tens of thousands in tailor-made programming.
We do it for ourselves:
- A web questionnaire (Typeform) recently replaced an Excel grid for our personal tax clients.
- Our customer survey software (InputKit) is programmed with our invoicing software (Xero), which is already linked to proposal management software (Practice Ignition)
- The collection of more than 250 customers is done automatically with software (Rotessa), connected to our accounting system (Xero).
What applications are used to do Codeless?
There are thousands of them, and it would be suicidal to know them all, so we choose our weapons and the expertise we develop carefully. Let’s give concrete examples of a list that still seeks to grow:
- Accounting systems (Xero, QBO)
- Expense management (Dext, Plooto, Expensify)
- ERP (Dear Inventory)
- Payroll (Employer D, Nethris)
- Invoicing and project management (Harvest, Practice Ignition)
- Dashboards, modeling and working capital (Futrli, G-Accon)
- Business intelligence (Power BI, Google Data Studio)
- Connectivity and automation (Zapier)
- Communication (Slack, Teams, Google Chat)
- Secure document management (Sharepoint)
- E-commerce (Shopify, Woo Commerce)
- Automated collection (Rotessa, Stripe, Chargebee, Recurly)
- Forms (Typeform, MS Form, Inputkit)
In what context does this method apply?
Generally, this approach is best applied to companies with more than 10 employees, which experience recurring issues such as these:
- Lack of financial visibility of the various stakeholders
- A lot of time spent on manual actions
- Lack of assurance in data accuracy
- Significant delays in key activities such as invoicing, collection of customer accounts, payment of suppliers, payment of expense accounts and financial reports.
We are mainly looking for people with a strong analytical character, who have the ability to “see the path”, that is to say, to conceptualize the steps necessary to bring a digital input to a digestible output. You will have the chance to work in a team already comprising the 4 most thawed pogos in our company, who can share years of experience in the digital transformation of businesses.
“The imagination has never been so accessible. As creativity is less and less hampered by technological limitations, we just need to leave space for the most lively minds determined to innovate. »
