Microsoft Dynamics GP

If Comprehensive Leave Manager is setup to accrue leave time during payroll processing, the system will calculate the leave time during the build and calculate process. After calculating whether a user would like to validate the leave accruals for employees, a SmartList can be built from the Employee Leave Summary information.

Paid time off – one of the most basic benefits an employer offers. Employees put a high value on getting paid while not working!

If only running payroll was as easy as tapping a few buttons on your keyboard and printing paychecks. Whether you have a few employees or dozens, payroll is rarely as easy as printing checks. Keeping track and properly calculating vacation time and other leave benefits, pay rate changes, overtime, and other situations that impact an employee’s pay can be a challenge, unless you have the right software. Here’s how you can get started on the path to taming payroll.

Many companies today must decide if they can benefit from consolidating multiple company databases that have been added through growth or acquisitions. A client of ours, a flourishing medical and healthcare company, really needed to consolidate all their databases.

Preparing business taxes is rarely as easy as 1-2-3, however, it can be made much easier with the right technology. An enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution, like Microsoft Dynamics® GP for example, should provide a proper foundation for maintaining the data needed for tax season. Integrity Data also offers several add-on features that will give your ERP a boost, making it easier to maintain accurate records and prepare your tax reports faster.

We had a scenario in Management Reporter 2012 where 2 companies have identical charts of accounts in GP and thus, they use the same Row Definition in MR. We could run a report for one company just fine but the second company’s report would return no data. The Row Definition looked fine in the first company.

I think most of us who have implemented GP payroll have come across errors in the check build that a payroll posting account is missing. In an effort to stop these messages and not interrupt the payroll process I will typically add a suspense account for each area in payroll posting (Gross wages, deductions, benefits etc). That way we can analyze the suspense account after payroll is posted.

There’s a saying attributed to the ancient Roman Seneca: If one does not know to which port one is steering, no wind is favorable. So we’ve known for thousands of years that we can’t plan without knowing our destination. It’s just as true that we can’t map our course without knowing our starting point.

An insurance company was experiencing severe issues with their existing ERP software. They are a public, self-insurance pool providing liability and property coverage to municipal governmental entities. They needed a comprehensive accounting package to support their growing and emergent needs and selected the powerful accounting platform that only Microsoft Dynamics GP provides for their complex financial reporting. They had been using an old mainframe system handling their claims and billing before implementing an industry specific software for insurance companies called Finys. This insurance software product suite is built to provide an operating platform for the carriers of property and casualty insurance. It also easily integrated with Microsoft Dynamics GP and met their needs for GAAP (General Accepted Accounting Principles) compliant by providing: • Strong Financial Reporting • Budgeting Capabilities • Traceability for Audits, Security and Financial • Ability to import Finys summary data into Microsoft Dynamics GP Through the implementation of Microsoft Dynamics GP and its included robust, financial analysis tool, Management Reporter, the company’s reports for their 180+ members which formerly took all day to generate, now takes just minutes. The company is now enjoying many benefits by utilizing GP’s Reporting Tools, along with Microsoft Dynamics SmartList. They are now also able to eliminate manually entering ten key adding machine tapes which was very labor intensive. Standard GP edit reports allowed the users to stop using these ten key adding machine tapes in order to check totals. Now they spend less time keying and more time analyzing!
