Overview
To better measure your organization’s financial performance, you need to have a reliable system that will help provide real-time financial data and reports that accurately reflect your organization’s current financial status and enable you to make future projections.
The Akrebeia Budget and Accounting System (BAS) is specifically designed for non-profit organizations such as government agencies and NGOs, to automate the creation and management of budgets, track accounts and control financial processes, and streamline administrative functions in the field of salary payments, general and administrative expenses, contract dealings, and project accounts. It supports automated workflow and approval, and facilitates the flow of transactions, documents and communications within the organization. Alerts and notifications help users easily find the tasks that require their action.
Akrebeia BAS provides a wide range of pre-defined and customizable reports to help managers and decision makers control costs and improve business decisions. Dashboards provide visibility of critical financial data to financial managers and executives, and the ability to drill-down allows them to view detailed information and take immediate action when required.
Designed using service-oriented architecture (SOA), Akrebeia BAS can be easily integrated with third party systems using web services. Procurement, inventory, project billing and other related data can be exchanged with other applications to provide seamless processing and business flow between the systems and the departments/users that use them.
