General
Ledger System by Intersoft
"If
Cashflow is the life blood of a business, Profit is its heart"
You are in business to make a profit,
for without profit you cannot offer yourself, nor your staff any security.
The General Ledger is a very comprehensive, but easy to use application,
providing powerful reporting to assist you in making the right decisions
for your company.
emPOWER General Ledger is one of a new generation of e-commerce aware products
that uses the most up to date development technology available. It draws on
the many years experience Intersoft Systems has had developing general accounting
software. It is part of the emPOWER Series, a range of windows based accounting
modules that provide you the “POWER to Perform”.
Intersoft’s emPOWER General Ledger System will enable you to produce full Financial
Reports to Balance Sheet stage, with Budget Variances, Management/ Statistical
data and extended reporting. When GST is due, simply print the GST 101 Report
or BAS Return, and all the relevant information is presented for you.

Features:

Open-Period Processing
Define your own financial year start and end dates and create a processing “window” for
posting transactions into. This window can span any number financial years,
allowing transactions to be posted into any period required. The window can
be “closed” when processing for a year is completed and to stop any transactions
from being posted into the wrong period. Reports can be printed for any financial
period. You may set a “closed to” date to prevent further posting transactions
before this date.

Flexible
End of Year Procedures
For end of year procedures emPOWER offers you the ease of simply defining a
Retained Earnings Account or the power to create a set of “Rules” to transfer
profit through to Shareholder Accounts and Shareholders “Current Accounts” to “Brought
Forward Accounts”.
GST Analysis
The General Ledger system is a dream when analysing GST. Input and Output GST
totals for Payments, Invoice and Hybrid basis are catered for. In New Zealand
the GST 101 Return Report has the look and feel of the real GST 101 Report.
In Australian the BAS return is fully formatted to clearly present all the
relevant information with full audit trails. Full GST audit trail reports are
also available.
Chart of Accounts Explorer
emPOWER General Ledger allows for the easy addition of accounts and utilises
the powerful Chart of Accounts Explorer. The familiar styled explorer graphically
presents the structure of your Chart of Accounts and shows groupings, totals
and accounts.

Departments
Transactions can be analysed to Departments for profit centre reporting. When
setting up your Chart of Accounts define which Departments operate with
each Account, and also define the normal Department associated with that
Account.
When used in conjunction with the Branches Add-On you can divide your business
into a matrix of Branches, Departments and Accounts, and then analyse transactions
to any of these combinations. This allows for powerful analysis reporting on
different profit centre combinations, as well as business-wide analysis.

Detailed
on-screen Account Information
The one Account screen has all the relevant details for the Account for easy
and quick reference. It details the structure and default GST information,
monthly totals for all history, transaction details and budget information.
Sources
Sources allow you to track the point of origin of each transaction. Lists of
transactions by Source are available, invaluable in finding source documents.
Journal Entry
All double entry Journals are entered in batches that are designed for maximum
data entry speed and efficiency. Each batch may be temporarily saved and re-edited
(or deleted) until committed to the Ledger.
Recurring and Auto Reversing
Journals
All Journals and Journal Batches can be configured to be recurring and/or auto
reversing to save re-keying.
Drill Down Information
Where appropriate, drill downs are provided to take you quickly to source data.
Just double click on the figure to drill down.
Account Budgets
Budgets are essential for tracking your progress against predetermined goals.
emPOWER General Ledger allows you to have up to three different budgets to
measure your performance, all of which are easily edited and reported on. Each
Branch, Department and Account combination can be allocated its own budget.

Transaction
Import and Export
Transaction can be imported in a number of different formats. This helps reduce
keying time and aid in information flow between emPOWER and other software.

to pass on your fully analysed receipt and payment details to your own Accountant,
saving them time and you money. Formats supported include:

Series Features
Easy to Use Windows Interface
emPOWER maximises the use of the Windows™ Graphical User Interface (GUI) to
create a friendly environment that is easy to navigate and learn. Productivity
is increased with time saving features, such as having multiple windows open
at the same time. Powerful Lookup and search facilities are also included.
Customisation
Many of the User Interface features are fully customisable. For example Menus
and Toolbars are completely User definable. Data entry “grid layouts” may be
customised and saved for each user, allowing fine-tuning of the system.
e-commerce Aware
All the POWER Series systems are e-commerce aware. This includes e-mailing
of Invoices, Statements and Purchase Orders, e-mail and Internet access from
within the modules using existing applications, e-mailing of all reports in
a number of formats and a ODBC compliant database that can be accessed by Website
development tools.
Open Integration
emPOWER stores information using Microsoft’s Jet Database. This is the same
database “engine” behind MS Access and means you can use other third party
tools to create your own customised reports.
Reports and Charts
A wide range of parameter selectable reports and charts are available in the
system. All Reports may be previewed to screen, printed or saved in a number
of different formats. The many “parameters” provide very flexible options,
providing very detailed through to very summarised financial information. Reports
can be printed “as at” any month or year!
emPOWER’s powerful Microsoft Excel Add-In utilises the power of Excel to create
you own custom reports. Additionally, customised Financial Reports can be created
with third party products such as Seagate Crystal Reports and Microsoft Access.
