How many times a day do you hear “you can’t do that” or “that’s impossible?” Well, what if you had a project cost accounting software solution that makes all things possible? Yeah, I know…that sounds too good to be true and it’s hyperbole. But think about this: The enhancements of integrated ERP software modules in Microsoft Dynamics SL make possible a range of things you may never have dreamed of. Here are three:
- Increase Productivity of Your Staff. Since Dynamics SL integrates with Microsoft Office (Excel, Outlook, Word) and Microsoft SharePoint, your team can increase productivity and you can realize a greater return on your job-project-management-accounting software investment. Non-accounting staff don’t have to know or use the accounting software to do what they need to do. Duplicate data entry is eliminated. Moreover, with Dynamics SL’s Business Portal, employees, partners, and even customers have secure, role-tailored access to up-to-date information in a browser, anytime and anywhere. You and your staff can also deliver project financial status, task assignments, billings, invoices, timesheets, expense reports, and other documents through a browser.This also means your accounting department isn’t pulling their hair out trying to meet a myriad of information requests from the field. In fact, these types of efficiencies led an independent researcher to conclude “Deployed properly, Dynamics SL can deliver payback in fewer than six months.”
- Make Your Projects/Jobs More Profitable. Using the integrated features of Microsoft Dynamics SL project cost accounting software, you can gain control over revenue and expenses, allocate costs with a variety of labor rates, set up multiple billing methods, clearly view your budget details (actuals, revisions), and use this data to fine-tune future bids and improve estimating. This type of information obtained through easy-to-produce reports plus SL’s analysis tools leads to clearer insights that help you increase your margins and know with confidence that you can turn a nice profit on each job.
- Improve Morale. With better overall understanding of business processes and ease of use throughout the company, employees feel better about the work they’re doing. They can ensure its accuracy and take pride in the outcome. Integration of applications ultimately makes their work easier and boosts company morale.
So next time you hear “that’s impossible,” think again. The integrated features of Microsoft Dynamics SL can give you the confidence to have that “can do” attitude and your company will thank you for it.
