Using Financials for your business' accounting operations adds value to your operation:
- It is built specifically for the equipment rental and service industry.
- It is made for users with no prior accounting background.

- It provides the ability to financially track an asset from the point of vendor purchase through to depreciation and disposal.
- It has safeguards in place to ensure that your financial records are clean and up-to-date. For example, transactions cannot be deleted once posted to the General Ledger. It also prevents duplicate financial journal entries.
- It provides built-in utilities that help find useful financial discrepancies that may occur between your accounts receivable and accounts payable records.
- It works as a business intelligence function by linking financials to assets, enabling you to determine which assets are valuable and which are costing you money.

- At the end of the year, all financial statements can be produced from Financials and
sent to an accounting professional for analysis, enabling you to focus on running your business. - It features the ability to create journal entries for repeat expenses, and uses a powerful Asset Financing Information feature that tracks payment dates with the principal and interest amount and generates postings to the General Ledger by the due date.
- It enables you to perform bulk billing and cycle billing, which means invoices to customers can be emailed automatically.
