Objective:
I am seeking a friendly, motivating and challenging workplace. I have a
career spanning 30 years of changes, challenges and growth with companies
diverse in their nature and office procedures offering opportunities for me
to grow and learn new systems and procedures.
Experience:
Accounts Payable Republic National Distributing Company LLC Atlanta, GA
January 1998 - November 2010
Reconciled bank statements, A/P, A/R and created P&L journal entries.
Coded, entered and approved invoices credits and expense reports into
Oracle batches. Often had contact with suppliers and branch personnel
regarding payments and open invoices, running reports for them. Ran check
batches and printed checks.
Daily entered EFT's, monthly I ran and studied an exceptions report making
changes and corrections where able before I emailed each branch their copy.
Twice a month I entered the deferred tax and helped all the branches with
entering and paying their taxes as well as walking them through the yearly
accelerated.
Monthly I contacted the branch managers for their inventory information
which I input into a spreadsheet for the comparison inventory report which
created and circulated to the executives. This spreadsheet was maintained
and adjusted as branches were added and deleted.
The monthly census report I prepared from my own spreadsheet and filed
online required me to access information from the end of the month disk for
all the branches along with information received from the branches.
I created a spreadsheet for the sales tax information for Atlanta which I
gave to my accountant for his GL entries. After the merger we had all new
accounts and numbers change so I created a spreadsheet listing most of the
commonly used accounts for all the bookkeepers. The Atlanta branch being
the most difficult due to executives changing titles, account numbers,
personnel and departments. While challenging I had no problems with these
changes which made it easier on my accountant. Over the years there were
several upgrades to our Oracle and I was asked to help with the EFT entry
portion. I often helped the newer bookkeepers with procedures, Oracle input
and their email set up.
Oracle, Microsoft Office Excel, Microsoft Outlook, 10 Key, scanner, Fax,
Copier, check printer
Accounts Receivable Supervisor Living Centers of America
Houston, TX August 1994 - November 1995
Once a month I produced and mailed bills for each patient. Kept each
resident's file completely updated.
Researched balances on old and new accounts which lead to corrections I
made. Some of those balances were due to LOC's changing and the amounts the
state paid. Dealt with Medicaid, Medicare as well as the patient's
responsible parties
I was involved in all the nursing home activities and the residents,
creating signs for every occasion imaginable, helping the administrator
with anything computer related.
After 3 months the other bookkeepers started depending on me for answers,
at 6 months the IT department had me do the first of 2 Beta tests for the
A/R program. After 1 year I was asked to become a supervisor over 5 homes.

A/R, Administrative Assistant Fast Freight Services of
Texas January 1987- July 1994
Daily manually entered waybill numbers and amounts on cards and posted
partial to whole payments for each broker and importer, reconciled all the
end of each month. Daily I dealt with brokers and importers on billing
issues.
I took calls and wrote up delivery tickets, dispatched the drivers. My
knowledge of all the zip codes came in handy and saved time.
Wrote and signed checks, paid bills, made out driver payroll and filled out
tax forms. Made bank deposits, shopped for supplies, made and distributed
holiday candy.
Ran all errands which often included picking up freight in the air cargo
section and making a rush delivery.
My family and I developed an A/R program specifically suited to their needs
on Lotus. This was necessary because each waybill had to be entered in
individually but they were not always paid in full by the broker or
importer.
I ran the entire office while the owner was out for vacation or sick time.
Lotus 1 2 3, 10 Key, Multi-line phone system, dispatch radio,
From 10/1978 until 1/1987 I learned and mastered all aspects of
bookkeeping for family run carpet cleaning business, using Peachtree.
