Challenges included manual updates, difficulty with manager-level planning actions, inconsistent social charge calculations, and a filing/approval bottleneck.

Access was rolled out to key stakeholders: Philipp, the financial team, 5 VPs, team leads, and HR recruiter totaling a significant number of active users.Managers transitioned from spreadsheets to Basqo dashboards for planning and approvals.
