Accounting Financial Management Overview
Integrated, comprehensive financial management
As your small business or midsize company grows, so does the complexity of managing its financials. While accounting-only software may have helped you get started, you need software that can take your business to the next level, automating everyday financial tasks and integrating them with other business processes. That software is available – in the SAP Business One application.
You need an integrated solution to streamline all of the accounting and financial processes in your growing company, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, and posting of ledger and journal entries and recurring entries. As your business expands, the solution must grow with you.
It should support automatic tax calculations as well as multi-currency transactions. It should help you manage cash flow and fixed assets, track budgets, and compare actual and planned figures to give you an accurate picture of your business. It should offer powerful reports and data visualizations in dashboards. And it should be accessible anytime and anywhere from your favorite mobile device.
Powered by SAP HANA, SAP Business One provides a reliable, integrated solution to streamline your financial operations, resulting in faster transaction processing and improved cash flow. Flexible and adaptable, the software is available on premise or in the cloud – the choice is yours.
Capture all your financial information in a single, scalable solution
The month-end closing process is crucial to all organizations. The goal is to compile accurate financial statements that management can use to make business decisions. SAP Business One accelerates the month-end close by automating business activities, thereby increasing efficiencies and reducing errors. You have quick access to real-time, reliable financial information, which further reduces the time it takes to close your books at the end of every period.
SAP Business One automatically calculates taxes, such as sales tax, value-added tax, and withholding tax, for each line item on each transaction, taking into account country-specific allocation and reporting requirements. With automated computation and reporting of tax processes, you can comply fully with the legal requirements of each country where you do business.
Streamline reconciliations, bank statements, and payments
With the banking and reconciliation functionality in SAP Business One, you can automate and accelerate incoming and outgoing payments. The payment wizard allows you to clear multiple accounts receivable and accounts payable invoices in batch mode for checks and bank transfers. Payments are executed according to your selection criteria and payment method, such as check, bank transfer, credit card, or cash, and then journal entry transactions are posted automatically once the process is completed.
You can process external bank statements to generate incoming and outgoing payments and to reconcile your balance sheet accounts. In addition, you can use a reconciliation engine to match payments that are not reconciled automatically, such as payments made “on account,” by opening items either automatically or manually and filtering by general ledger account or by business partner.
