Accounting Software Eliminates Manual Entry and Integrates Smoothly with Front Office Software
Staffing and recruiting firms that use SBS accounting software save time and money. Time-saving features include eliminating manual data entry and interfacing seamlessly with front office software. Built-in financial reporting provides better insight into financial performance and drives informed decision making.
No More Manual Data Entry
For example, when recruiting/staffing firm CHASE Professionals began searching for more robust accounting software, one "must have" was a smooth interface between the existing front office staffing software and the new financial software. The accounting department was spending too much time on manual data entry because the two systems didn't interface very well, said Controller Catherine Stuff. Happily, all of that manual data entry was eliminated with the move to SBS Financials.
Interfacing with Front Office Software
The SBS interface between front and back office software is simple. The system uses a point-and-click process to import data in a variety of formats including Excel® files. Importing data from staffing industry software such as Avionte or TempWorks takes just a few clicks, Stuff said. "It's so easy and seamless."
Improving Productivity
Having seen productivity improve in the accounting department, CHASE was eager to leverage that improvement across its 23 branches. One way it chose to do that was by adding the Expense Reporting application. Employee expenses are now submitted electronically, images of receipts are attached for review, and requests are routed automatically via email. "All these improvements are adding up to saving time, and therefore, money!" Stuff explained.
Greater Insight into Financial Performance
Freeing up accounting users from tedious manual tasks allows them to take deeper dives into financial reporting and analysis, Stuff said. The staff is providing more informed recommendations to senior managers who can now be more effective in driving the company's financial performance.
