An ERP system that is fully integrated allows you to run your entire business operation, including your accounting and finance departments, from a single system.

Using one system saves you time by eliminating the need to cross-reference and re-enter the same data into multiple systems and spreadsheets. A fully integrated system increases the accuracy of your accounting and financial reports by eradicating upload errors, input errors, and potential timing errors. You will also save the money you are currently spending on maintaining and upgrading multiple systems.

Using a fully integrated ERP system also lets your accounting staff work from a single customizable dashboard that includes all the information they need. You will be able to manage and keep tabs on various projects, accounts, and functions from a single screen, and always have a real-time snapshot of the KPIs, and tasks that are important to you.

Another advantage of a fully integrated ERP system is the choice it gives you.

Love your current payroll system? An ERP system lets you choose to use external systems where they are advantageous as they can be easily integrated into your main system.

In this way, you can create a system that is totally tailored to how you work. Without an integrated system, there is no choice, and all processes have to be completed externally by disparate systems, eliminating the ability to create the perfect integrated accounting system for your team.

How does ERP improve finance insights into your business?

Many of your accounting and financial tasks can be completely automated with an ERP. An ERP will simplify accounts receivable and accounts payable, reduce your overhead, and improve cash management and cash flow issues. And instead of your staff spending almost half of their work hours on data entry, they will have more time and energy to focus on other tasks.

An ERP will not only increase your accounting team’s productivity it will give you better insight into your company’s financials. Your accounting team will have time freed up from doing data entry to devote to more important tasks, such as creating detailed financial reports.

ERP technology gives your accounting department easy access to data. Organizations that use separate systems for accounting and sales activities have to manage the data manually. But with an integrated ERP software system, there is a fast and automatic transfer of data, ensuring your data is accurate and consistent.

Access to real-time data from across your organization allows your accounting team to track financials better than ever before. You will have greater visibility into your company’s finances, including giving you the information you need to assess which business lines and projects are profitable, and which need to be improved.

How ERP helps to Accurate job costing?

Job costing is one of the biggest ways your accounting and finance team adds value to your organization. Job costing is important internally to your accounting team to properly prepare income statements, but is also of major value to your organization and your bottom-line.
