Microsoft Dynamics SL for financial management

Microsoft Dynamics SL for financial management delivers accounting solutions that can easily be customized for your specific needs. Deployed in single or multiple company scenarios, Dynamics SL for financial management enables your users to easily retrieve the comprehensive business information they need, the way they need it. By natively supporting e-business functionality, critical information can be securely extended to any user, anywhere, anytime.

Accounts Payable. Keep accurate information about money owed, due dates, and available discounts at your fingertips with a focused and flexible way to carefully track and take advantage of terms and discounts, predict cash requirements, and monitor payments so they are made only once.

Accounts Receivable. Actively manage your customer accounts and identify problems before they occur. Flexible, integrated functions provide you with detailed information and reporting to monitor receivables and do what you need to do to enhance your cash flow and improve profitability.

Advanced Payroll. Take the guesswork out of complex labor and time collection. Microsoft Dynamics SL Advanced Payroll helps you calculate true labor costs, meet time-sensitive government reporting requirements, implement flexible deductions and benefits, and most importantly, pay your employees accurately and on time.

Cash Manager. Increase the accuracy of cash accounting, gain instant access to your current cash balance, and automate bank reconciliation. Powerful and integrated Microsoft Dynamics SL Cash Manager is automatically updated when batches are released by other Microsoft Dynamics SL modules.

Currency Manager. Conduct global business easily, whether your company uses a single currency with plans to expand or already operates with multiple currencies. Integrate transaction processing across Microsoft Dynamics SL to track exchange-rate fluctuations, determine possible gains and losses when making payments in another currency, and maximize multinational business profits.

Financial Statement Translation. Isolate, evaluate, and eliminate the impact of currency fluctuations on your business operations with Microsoft Dynamics SL Financial Statement Translation. This flexible and integrated module helps you dramatically improve month-end close processes by performing currency translations and automatically calculating gains/losses due to rate fluctuations.
