Core Program

Payroll

Payroll is date-driven and utilizes one-time entry to save time and simplify business operations. Whether calculating taxes and deductions, tracking employee absences, or importing electronic time cards, Payroll is the most complete in-house solution for your business office. Comprehensive reporting; with over 80 standard reports in Payroll alone, finding the right report will never be a problem. The system eliminates the need for preprinted government forms, saving the district time and money. Generate 941, Schedule B, W2, and 1094 and 1095 forms to the screen, edit and print to plain paper. 1094 and 1095 electronic submission is simplified through the IRS Affordable Care Act Information Return (AIR) program. To save you time, enjoy the ability to email password protected direct deposit stubs or use the optional Web Link module to provide online access to pay stub information, leave balances, government forms and reporting. Furthermore, Payroll meets your state reporting requirements for Retirement, Unemployment, Workers’ Compensation, 403b, and more and generates the state upload files, where necessary. It couldn’t be easier.

Accounts Payable

Accounts Payable is the perfect tool for streamlining your payables process. With over 40 standard reports and unlimited customizing options, you will always have information at your fingertips. There is no need to purchase preprinted government or purchase order forms as the system automatically generates 1099s and purchase orders. Purchase orders can be customized for your school; you can easily insert a school logo, detailed descriptions, or other special requests on the purchase order template and print directly to plain paper. Integrate the Web Link module to provide a completely paperless Requisition entry and approval workflow that flows seemlessly into Accounts Payable. Purchase order and invoice entry saves you time by offering numerous user options to customize entry screens; showing just what you want, not more than you need. Import P-Card and credit card transactions to maintain detailed vendor history. Another great feature allows you to import invoiced assets directly into the Fixed Asset Inventory add-on module, virtually eliminating double entry.

General Ledger

General Ledger integrates the Activity fund along with GASB 34 funds to reduce expenses and make reporting easy. Flexible Financial Reports allow you to quickly modify existing reports and customize them to fit your needs. The auditor-requested check reconciliation process ensures an accurate balance. Customers enjoy the ability to import cashed checks electronically! Journal and cash receipt entry are simplified and generate an on-screen detail listing to keep you on track. Chart of accounts maintenance allows you to build new account numbers in seconds. The Annual Report, customized to your state’s requirements, generates entirely within the system and has user-friendly entry and editing screens.

Is Your School Data Safe?

K-12 schools are targets for hackers. Learn how one school almost lost everything and how we protected their most important financial data with our School Accounting System. 

In early May 2019, the Yankton School District (Yankton, SD) was the target of cyber incursion.While the district continues to recover, many within the district know the situation could have been much worse. Jason Bietz, Business Manager, noted, “Many files on our network have been lost and will likely never be recovered. Luckily for finance operations at the district, all of our accounting and payroll information is in the cloud and was protected from the network breach.”
