 * Deep expertise across FI/CO, Universal Journal, GL, AP/AR, Asset Accounting, Controlling, Product Costing, Margin Analysis, Treasury, and period-end close, including complex accounting, controls, and statutory requirements.
 * Strong retail domain experience spanning omnichannel P&L, inventory valuation, merchandise and franchise accounting, rebates, leases, payments, and SAP CAR/POSDTA, including POS-to-Finance integration, sales reconciliation, tax, promotions, gift cards, loyalty, and inventory reconciliation.
