Associations
Chicagoland is the nation's second largest association headquarters city and is home to the largest collection of healthcare associations in the world. Crestwood Associates has extensive experience in implementing and supporting member-based associations to achieve their organizational goals.
Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) and Dynamics CRM offer your association the business tools you need to manage your organization including accounting controls, financial management, program and event management, human resources, and membership relationship management.
Dynamics GP Interfund Accounting ensures account balances stay accurate and timely with automated account transactions. It enables transfers of funds across departments, business units, divisions and organizations. These can be set up quickly to reduce manual entry processes. Automatic transaction analysis confirms fund accounts are balanced. The Dynamics GP General Ledger can then provide the right information to make the best possible decisions and to manage the organization.
Control Account Management within Dynamics GP enables management of payables accounts through identifying segments. This efficiently provides the accounting detail level needed to generate and utilize the most accurate and detailed reports. Each reporting segment can manage cost centers, departments, divisions, programs or funds and payables accounts are automatically assigned to multiple control accounts. Summary reports provide overview analysis and allow drill down capabilities to the segment details.
Dynamics GP Encumbrance Management helps manage funds and programs to control program purchasing and avoid overspending. When used with budgetary accounting, encumbrances can help ensure expenditures and commitments do not exceed funding. Flexible tolerance levels, password enabled authorizations and approvals, and automated email alerts help maintain control over expenses with automated spending control processes.
Requisition Management, part of the Dynamics GP Business Portal solution, provides the flexibility to control spending and budgets without imposing added manual processes. This web-based capability enable users to generate and authorize requisition requests on-line in order to streamline the submission and approval process.
Dynamics GP Grant Management provides automated expenditure tracking to specific grants and programs. Automated transactions reduce time consuming manual processes and errors and ensure transactions are properly assigned to the correct accounts. Expenses can be controlled and managed with a variety of tools including automated alerts and summary and detailed reporting to track and validate expenses against the grants.
Dynamics GP provides the tools to monitor and manage your organization with accuracy and the controls you need to properly account for both revenues and expenses, improve operations, and effectively manage your organization.
Crestwood Associates has significant experience and knowledge in implementing and supporting Microsoft Dynamics GP and Dynamics CRM solutions in Chicagoland's large associations community.
