Am I being overworked, or is this just normal for a Corporate Payables Clerk?

Title: Navigating the Workload: Is It Normal for a Corporate Payables Clerk?

Hello, fellow professionals,

As someone who has recently stepped into the role of a Corporate Payables Clerk, I find myself assessing the reasonableness of my current workload. Lately, it has begun to feel like I am juggling the responsibilities of several positions, and I’m curious if others in similar roles experience something akin to this.

Let me outline the key tasks I handle on my own:

• Corporate Payables Management: I oversee all payables for a large warehouse, our corporate office, and the property management division, which involves processing a significant volume of invoices.

• Credit Card Reconciliation: Managing and reconciling four corporate credit cards falls under my purview.

• Handyman Billing: My responsibilities extend to processing handyman receipts where I must scan documents, manually enter data, apply a 15% markup, and ensure the correct properties are billed.

• Hours Tracking: I also keep tabs on handyman hours, generating invoices as needed.

• Expense Processing: I deal with a myriad of regular expenses and employee overtime claims, including processing expense reports for our handyman when they utilize their personal credit cards.

• Chargebacks: Creating invoices for chargebacks is yet another item on my plate.

• System Migration: I played an integral role in our recent transition from QuickBooks Online to NetSuite.

Recently, my management has asked me to provide a comprehensive breakdown of my daily and weekly tasks, complete with timelines. This request has further prompted me to evaluate whether the expectations set on me are reasonable.

I am reaching out to those of you working in Accounting or administrative capacities: does my workload reflect what is typical for this role, or am I indeed being tasked with more than what one person can feasibly handle? Having transitioned from property Accounting to corporate payables, I lack a clear benchmark for comparison in this specific area.

In short, I manage various aspects of corporate payables along with property management tasks, credit card reconciliations, billing processes, chargebacks, and beyond—primarily on my own. Is this the standard, or is it a bit excessive for one individual? I would greatly appreciate your insights and experiences!
