In the court system, clerks are stuck pulling numbers from QuickBooks, updating Google Sheets, and formatting reports for supervisors. Every budget cycle means searching Outlook for receipts, double-checking formulas, and logging every change by hand. The pressure to be accurate is relentless, and one mistake can mean a compliance issue or audit headache.
