General Ledger and Budgeting

BudgetSense® General Ledger is a sophisticated, multi-fund financial system designed for modified accrual accounting. The General Ledger module provides full encumbrance management, with budget control and development.


Utilizes Ease of Microsoft® Windows®
Developed for the Microsoft® Windows® environment, BudgetSense combines the simplicity of Windows’ point-and-click operations with the power of the SQL Server 2000 database. Integrating your data with your office automation applications is a snap. If you need to publish your budget report to Excel, simply click on the embedded Microsoft Office® links, and your data is instantly transported to the spreadsheet.

Flexible Fund Accounting Options
With a flexible chart of accounts code structure that supports up to 30 digits, BudgetSense is well equipped to meet the most demanding state and local reporting needs. The true fund accounting design allows you to manage unlimited fund sources, including individual cash accounts or pooled cash, with automated due-to/due from entries to ensure that your funds are always in balance.

Comprehensive Activity Audit Trail
The General Ledger module maintains a comprehensive audit trail of transactional detail from all of the BudgetSense modules, including Payroll, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and Fixed Assets. Transactional history can be instantly accessed on demand. Manual journal entries are easy to enter, with automated reversals to correct erroneous entries.

Powerful Budget Development Tools
In addition to operational budgetary control, General Ledger provides a full-function, new-year budgeting system with powerful tools to streamline this process. Fully integrated with the Human Resources module, General Ledger imports your current position records and related salary budget estimates to support your proposed budget. Trend analysis is also supported with up to five years of previous budget and expense history.

Intuitive Revenue Accounting Manages Cash Flow
BudgetSense General Ledger helps you manage your cash flow with an intuitive revenue accounting system. Graphical entry screens capture revenue data for multiple funds with laser-quality receipts printed on demand. Instant on-screen inquiries and printed reports provide up-to-the-minute snapshots of your inbound revenue receipt status.

Simple Bank Reconciliations
