Franchise Management

Franchise Management with Sage Intacct

Sage Intacct is the leading cloud-based ERP solution for franchise management. Franchise owners can easily manage multiple locations, access in real time data, and gain insights into each location’s performance without sacrificing roll-up reporting capabilities. All of this is made possible by Intacct’s best-in-class multi-entity management / consolidation capabilities and open API. Intacct relieves business owners of IT worries, all while eliminating cumbersome consolidations and manual reporting. Franchise finance and accounting teams can become proactive team players by refocusing their time on high value analytic tasks. Below are a few recommendations of how Sage Intacct can provide the boost your franchise’s finance team has been looking for:

Multi Location Reporting

Managing multiple entities or locations can be overwhelming with the wrong software. With Sage Intacct you can quickly see each individual location’s financial data, as well as the financial health of your entire franchise. The high configurability of Intacct makes roll up reporting for the executive team a breeze. Now decision makes can quickly analyze their total business with real-time data and seize time sensitive opportunities, both on the franchise and individual store levels.

Secure, Granular Permissions

Sage Intacct’s user permissions allow you to easily assign and update user permissions, giving each person access to only the location(s), reports, and financial data necessary to their role within your organization. With their own login, managers can see their store(s) financial information without sacrificing the security of other franchise financial data or them having to wait to receive manual reports from the corporate finance team. Now franchises can structure their accounting system to fit their organizational structure, instead of modifying employees’ roles to fit the accounting system’s capabilities.

Closing the automation gap

Closing the Automation Gap in Finance

Closing the automation gap in finance is key to running an efficient business capable of scaling. Growth in your business, by product diversification or acquisition, creates additional work on your team. If the system is designed around manual tasks and spreadsheets, your company won’t reap the rewards or experience the profit growth you expect. Closing the gap allows finance teams to transform from error-prone clerical workers to strategic advisors capable of providing data and insight in real-time. 

What is the automation gap? 

The automation gap is the space between what can be automated within your current system and the actual processes your staff is executing.  The gap essentially represents the manual processes your team completes in order to run your business effectively.  As companies experience growth, the automation gap generally increases and can overrun a finance department. 

A great example of how the right system can close the automation gap is Sage Intacct’s multi-entity management capabilities. By automatically consolidating multiple companies and automating closing entries, when you grow by acquisition you no longer need to manually track the activity in spreadsheets and manually consolidate the books! With Sage Intacct, finance teams can rapidly close the books and reduce errors along the way allowing them to provide meaningful information to your management team faster. 

 

Growing through product diversification is great but that also means companies need to understand how that impacts their compliance standards such as ASC 606. Once you understand your compliance requirements, you then need systems in place to uphold them. 

When your current software doesn’t automate this for you, companies typically lean toward a spreadsheet as their process. Managing compliance in a spreadsheet is not sustainable over the long term as you experience continued growth and create new products. 

 Watch the Webinar: Closing the Automation Gap Now

Processes built around spreadsheets are extremely manual and the responsibility of managing and maintaining them typically falls on one or two employees who truly understand how the document works. We often find that the documentation and instructions of the process are nonexistent meaning all of that process knowledge leaves the company when the employees leave your organization. 

Managing complex processes using spreadsheets is not without risk. It’s not a question of “if” there is an error, it’s a question of “when” the error is going to occur and how big of an impact is it going to cause. 

Companies are trying to close the automation gap by hiring talent. However, hiring high-level talent that can create and understand complex spreadsheets comes at a premium. Continuing to hire employees at top salaries to perform these tasks is not sustainable over the long term. This also contributes to creating a company culture where the focus is on clerical work rather than strategic work. 

Watch the Webinar: Closing the Automation Gap Now

Why is closing the gap important? 

90% of the decision-makers are under pressure to make decisions faster but only 28% trust the data in their reports. This is largely due to the almost guaranteed mistakes that happen when a company relies on manual processes instead of working with a system that closes its automation gap. 

Current CFO’s have more responsibilities than ever to strategically lead their companies with real-time data. Reacting on three-week-old data that is almost guaranteed to have some error within the report is no longer acceptable or the norm. 

Are you unsure of how to discover your automation gap and implement a solution to close it? The rinehimerbaker team can help you evaluate your current processes, identifies your opportunities, and build a plan on how to close your automation gap.

ERP Upgrade

Controllers: How to Make the Case for an ERP Upgrade

Making the case for an ERP upgrade can be a daunting task.  Below is our cheat sheet on how to know when you are ready, tips for making your case, and what to expect once you have the approval to move forward. 

 

How to Know When it is Time for an Upgrade 

There are different types of “key experiences” you can have that would signal it is time to upgrade your software solution. Being able to recognize these signals early on will save your company money, time, and keep you ahead of your competition. Read below about the different signals that show it’s time to make the case and present it to your executive team.  

 

  • When your close is taking too long– When your end of month close is taking 6-15 days causing your executive team to work off “old data”. Real-time data is key to growth for a company. Decision-makers within a company need data almost instantly in this technology-driven time.  
  • When the manual processes become too much– It is time to upgrade when manual data entry is taking up too much time, leaving your finance team constantly behind. Also, manual entry becomes a problem due to data entry errors. 
  • When it takes too long to understand your data- Your data should work for you. Reports should be easy to create based off dimensions you set. In a cloud-based ERP solution, you can slice and dice your data any way you need quickly to make decisions and create dashboards to quickly find key indicators that drive critical business decisions. 
  • You are adding new entities (additional locations or brands/product lines)– Being able to have granular insight into all locations as well as consolidated reporting is key to being able to grow. 
  • When you are adding new staff and want to limit their access to certain sensitive data- a cloud-based ERP will allow you to restrict user access to specific entities and allow you to control their permissions to perform certain tasks or view types of sensitive data such as payroll.    
  • You are expanding to multicurrency– When you are adding an additional currency you will need to evaluate if your system allows more than one currency and if so, does it have the capabilities to produce the consolidated reporting you need? When evaluating the capabilities of your current system, look for the ability to automate conversions for transactions or reporting. Also, having the choice on which currency reports will be produced in is important

How to Make Your Case 

The best way to make your case for an upgrade is to show your executive team the time you can save, the money they can save, peace of mind they will have by having a more secure system, and the impact of adding capabilities that will help them make decisions that can grow their business 

For time savings, show how you can cut your closing time in half by having data available almost immediately. You can also demonstrate how you and the finance team will be able to cut down on manual processes through automation, freeing up time for new, value-add projects all while limiting the need to hire more finance employees in the future.  

Money savings are key when asking your executive team for an upgrade. The right cloud-based ERP solution can save money by cutting down on manual processes, improving employee engagement and growth, the ability to do more with a smaller team, and cutting closing time in half. 

Security for your data is extremely important as your company is growing. With Sage Intacct, the days of worrying about loss of data are over.  You also have the flexibility to restrict user access from viewing sensitive data.  User permissions can be set for only what a team member needs to access User permissions are granular with options down to letting a team member view but not edit or edit but not delete. This allows for peace of mind, and complete data security. 

Upgrading to a cloud-based ERP solution means that it is cloud supported with automatic upgrades multiple times a year. You will be able to operate with a lean team and your IT staff won’t have to complete or test system upgrades/changes for you. This helps cut down on time spent in-house trying to solve problems and empowers your finance team.  

Lastly, and an important part of getting approval is showing how the system will give your executive team better insight, better data, and flexibility. With a cloud-based solution, the executive team would have access to their own log-in that show cases Dashboards built specifically to their needs with real-time data that can be accessed from anywhere. With Sage Intacct, you have the ability to see your full customer experience from end to end. You can connect your CRM such as SalesForce, into Sage Intacct. This gives complete visibility for your sales team and improves your customers’ experience with your company.

Sage Intacct user Permissions

Sage Intacct User Permissions Give Companies’ the Ability to Scale 

Sage Intacct’s User Permissions is one of the key benefits of the software that gives companies the flexibility and security they need as their business grows.  Permissions allow a business to maintain the integrity of the financials by giving their team access to only the functions of the system that are necessary to do their job. An example is an accounts payable (AP) team member who could have access to create and pay bills but not have access to create vendors. Or perhaps you have a team member that needs to view bills within AP but not have the ability to edit or delete.

Sage Intacct’s permissions allow companies to easily build out their system and their users’ accessibility to their exact needs and use. 

Why Would You Want Permissions? 

There are many reasons why but a primary reason is to segregate duties and define a user’s role. While many companies start with one employee that fills many roles, as you grow and add staff you can deploy user permissions to define access rights and limit the functionality available to them within the system. This keeps the employee focused on their job and gives peace of mind that you have the system security in place to protect your financial data.

Permissions can also be used to set thresholds for approvals. For example, a user may have the ability to approve a transaction up to $5,000 but would need their manager’s approval for all transactions greater than $5,000. Approval permissions are customizable and can have multiple levels.
Companies that have more than one entity can give users access to one location, all locations, or a combination of locations. This can be very useful when you need to allow users to work across multiple companies, but don’t want them to access unnecessary or sensitive information.

The benefits of permissions aren’t limited to carrying out tasks. They can also help streamline the reporting process. An example would be giving your leadership team access to the departments they need on their dashboards. This limits their view to the specific information they need without filtering through unnecessary data. Easy access to granular insights will allow your team to make quick decisions with real-time data without an intense, manual process.

Sage Intacct’s permissions provide you with the flexibility and security you need to control access to your system financials. Permissions are managed through an easy to use user interface and provide a complete activity log of all changes.

Take A Tour Of Sage Intacct Now

What are the Different Types of Permissions? 

Sage Intacct allows for complete customization with user permissions. You can allow team members the ability to create lists, view, add, edit, delete, reverse, and reclassify as well as giving them access to different entities and modules. The capabilities within Sage Intacct’s user permissions are far superior to their competitors which generally only gives you the option to grant total access to different modules instead of the options for customization based on position. The user permissions are vast and allow for extremely customized user portals even with multiple entities set up.

One unique type of permission is reclassify which allows a user to reclassify a transaction while maintaining an audit log. An example is if you have cleaning service bills that have been coded as outside services, however, there is a separate account for cleaning services you can easily change the coding without having to re-enter the whole bill or enter a reclassifying journal entry. Each reclassification is tracked by Intacct and easily auditable via a pre-built reclassification report allowing you to keep up with changes that have been made in real-time.

How Do User Permissions allow You to Scale? 

With Intacct permissions, your company can scale with one ERP platform. Imagine the below situation and think about how permissions quickly go from an afterthought in a startup environment to a critical need in a growing, mid-market business.

As with most startups, you begin with one user that has complete access to the accounting system. As the company grows so does the accounting team, often from one person doing everything to three or four people touching different areas of the company’s finances. Now the company is likely going to have a controller or CFO with complete access, but will also likely have an AP and/or AR clerk(s). Now the company starts worrying about permissions on a high level, like restricting their AP clerk to only AP functions in their accounting software (I.e., not able to access financial reports, book journal entries, etc.) After another few years of growth, the companies finance team is now 6 or 8 people, with three team members dedicated to just AP. All three need access to the AP module, but team member one (AP clerk) needs to only enter bills (not delete or reclassify), team member two (senior AP staff) needs to add/delete/reclassify bills and approve payments up to $500, and team member three (AP manager) needs full access (approve all payments, access all reports). This is a very common example of a high growth company that went from no immediate need for user permissions to user permissions being mission-critical functionality. Sadly, many companies wait until user permissions are already mission-critical to address the need. With Intacct, user permissions are ready when you need them and can be quickly deployed within a matter of minutes.

Overall, user permissions allow your company to scale while giving your team access to everything they need to be successful in their roles. It provides robust security for your company’s data that is in such high demand in today’s digital world. Lastly, it mitigates disgruntled or bumbling employees from being able to damage a business’s financial information.

AICPA Supports Sage Intacct

Why CPA’s Agree with Sage Intacct Being the Only AICPA Endorsed GL Software

The AICPA, otherwise known as the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, is a national professional organization that sets the standards for accountants in 143 countries. The AICPA oversees the accounting profession, sets standards, and oversees the uniform CPA exam. The organization defines professional accountancy through education requirements, ethical standards, professional standards, and alignment with the general public’s interest.  When the AICPA endorses an accounting software it means they have thoroughly vetted the product and have concluded that it meets the rigorous standards they hold for themselves and the accounting profession. Sage Intacct has become the first and only Accounting software to receive this recognition from the AICPA.  

 

Why is Intacct different? 

 

The Sage Intacct platform is meant to scale with a business no matter your size. It’s a one-stop-shop for businesses ranging from mom and pop shops to mid-market businesses. Your company can buy one software instead of having to change software as they grow. “Sage Intacct is truly a product with the accounting and finance team in mind. Every engineering dollar is put on how to make the accounting and finance team’s life better.”- Michael Garrison, Accountant for rinehimerbaker. Sage Intacct has focused on what they do best and has chosen to integrate with the best of the best vs. trying to create a suite. A great example of this mindset is the integration with Salesforce. Sage Intacct has made the strategic decision to align themselves and integrate with top SaaS offerings instead of trying to recreate them all. This allows their customers to get the best GL software and not sacrificing other software needs throughout the company. This also enables Sage Intacct to focus on their quarterly release schedule and making the accounting software the best it can be through consistent releases. There are integrations with multiple partners including CRMs, tax services, automated payments, time& expense, and more.

Why do CPAs agree? 

 

Michael has been working with Sage Intacct for over six years and agrees with the AIPCA’s endorsement of this GL software. “The accessibility of Sage Intacct from anywhere you may be, and the ease of use is phenomenal compared to other types of accounting systems such as QuickBooks which slows down what I can do for my customers,” said Garrison, CPA.  Once an accountant has gone through training for Sage Intacct GL the software is easy to navigate, and constantly working for them. The top features include flexibility and increased productivity. “Sage Intacct is the true definition of a cloud-based product. Customers get all the benefits of the cloud including operating in multiple sessions for various entities without closing and opening a program throughout the day” said Garrison, CPA. “The time savings alone are substantial. Overall, I find that the controls, the granularity, the ability to have segregation of duties built into the system, the auditability of transactions are all critical to accountants and why this software is above and beyond their competition.”
