Temporary Accountant

Seeking a strong Accountant with Microsoft Dynamic AX/Dynamics365 Finance & Operations (D365 F&O) experience to bridge foundational clerical accounting with enterprise level ERP proficiency. Because D365 is a highly integrated, multi-entity system, this goes beyond simple data entry to understand how the transactional data flows into the general ledger and affects broader business operations.

The core requirements include:

Technical ERP Proficiency (AX/D365 F&O)

·        Module Competency: Hands-on experience navigating the core financial modules, specifically Accounts Payable (AP), Accounts Receivable (AR), and Cash and Bank Mgmt.

·        Journal & Posting Familiarity: Experience working with vendor invoice journals, non-PO invoices, customer payment journals, and post daily sub-ledger transactions.

·        Financial Dimensions: Understanding how Financial Dimensions and account segments are applied to transaction for accurate department or job costing.

·        Three-Way Matching: Ability to execute or review invoice matching (matching purchase orders, product receipts, and vendor invoices) within the system.

Core Accounting and Clerical Skills

·        Transactional Accuracy: Strong capability in processing a high volume of transactions (invoice, expense reports, billing) with zero-tolerance for data entry errors.

·        Month-End Support: Assisting accountants with period-close routines by ensuring all weekly/monthly transactional journals are fully posted and cleared.

·        Discrepancy Resolution: Active problem-solving skills to research and resolve vendor billing discrepancies, price variances or payment issues within the ERP platform.

Microsoft Ecosystem & Data Management

·        Advanced Excel Skills: High proficiency in Excel is critical, frequently using the “Open in Excel” / Excel Add-in feature to mass-upload journals or analyze data exported from D365.

·        File Management: Comfort with paperless processing, digital document attachments inside D365 records, and EDI.

Background and Education

·        Education: An Associates or Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration is highly preferred.

·        Experience: Typically 3+ years of dedicated accounting experience, with at least 1-2 years utilizing Microsoft Dynamics AX (22012) or D365 F&O.
