Revenue and Expense Deferrals for Sage ERP Accpac

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

Revenue and Expense Deferrals for Sage ERP Accpac helps companies with the amortization of maintenance and service related contract revenue and expense amounts over the life of the contract. Companies get the advantage of compliance with the Public Company Accounting and Investor Protection Act of 2002 (also known as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002). Although not specifically covered under the Act, non-public entities are also finding that bankers, investors, and acquisition candidates are now conditioned to expect increased transparency and real-time disclosure, effectively placing a greater accounting and reporting burden on companies who are not legally obligated to comply with the Act. Revenue and Expense Deferrals helps companies with meeting these additional demands.

Revenue & Expense Deferrals requires Sage ERP Accpac Transaction Analysis and Optional Fields Creator module to be installed.

Get your Business’ Health Back on Track with Sage ERP Accpac 6.0

You may think your business is on track for success, but in a shaky economy, it’s more important than ever to monitor the factors that can affect the health of your business.

  1. It’s challenging and time-consuming to create specialized reports that help you collaborate with stakeholders, managers, and auditors.
  2. KPI information comes from multiple sources so you never have an accurate picture of your business.
  3. It’s difficult and time-consuming to obtain real-time, comprehensive, trustworthy business insight that assists with making intelligent business decisions from static reporting.
  4. Accomplishing everyday tasks is consuming more time than necessary because system access is overly complicated.  
  5. Customer escalations and satisfaction issues occur because information isn’t sent to the right person and can be overlooked.
  6. When on the road, account managers don’t have up-to-date customer profile information, which makes it difficult to track buying behaviors and build strong relationships.
  7. Your sales, marketing, customer service, and accounting teams don’t have a comprehensive view of your customers.
