As Data Reporting Specialist at The Light Center, I am passionate for transparency, accuracy, efficiency, and effectiveness when preparing specialized reports for management and owner. Utilizing my mastery of Microsoft Excel’s dynamic formula functions, condition formatting, VBA programming, and personal templates, I have reduced up to 80% of time spent on reformatting, calculating, and preparing internal and external reports required on a daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly basis, and have nearly eliminated human errors. I also collaborate with and advise staff and management on the development of processes and procedures for new reports aiding in business resources and decisions.

As Data Entry Specialist, I am strongly passionate towards expanding and optimizing the use of The Light Center's ERP system, System Five. Since by start in 2016, I became increasingly aware of the capabilities System Five offers for sales, operations, management, and owner. Readjusting the process and dynamic Microsoft Excel macro for product pricing updates in my position as Retail Margin Specialist, I streamlined the upload of product attributes improving accuracy and efficiency of sales and reporting.Daily Tasks:Download product attributes and features from ERP system -System Five- for backup before correcting, merging, and deleting inaccurate product informationRun macro for efficient and consistent formatting of product attributes and featuresUpload formatted attributes and features of products into System Five inventory database

Retail Margin Assistant turned into Retail Margin Specialist. Originally assisting the Retail Sales Manager in updating product pricing within the company's ERP system System Five from Windward Software, I assessed the need for a more efficient and consistent pricing process. Gathering information from various resources, I adapted the prior pricing process by establishing a hierarchy of pricing rules, pioneering the current process of maintaining inventory data integrity within System Five, programming a dynamic Microsoft Excel macro using VBA code to efficiently and consistently format and modify large sets of pricing data, and training management and staff currently assisting in product pricing.Daily Tasks:Download product costing and pricing from ERP system -System Five- for backup before correcting, merging, and deleting inaccurate product informationContact vendor representatives for latest product costing and pricing spreadsheetsRun macro for efficient and consistent product pricing based on pricing hierarchy, and format data appropriatelyUpload new product pricing into System Five's inventory database

This new process now provides warehouse staff and accounting staff the ability to effectively and efficiently record, track, and report on replacement products requested and received from vendors, return of products sent back to vendors, and credit memos received from vendors.Daily Tasks:Receive and inspect product returns caused by damage, defect, or customer remorseContact vendors addressing issues with product and requesting return authorization and associated freight arrangementsProcess return of product in inventory databaseRecord credit notes when credit memos received by Accounts Payable
