dhc Implements New Financial Management System For British Dyslexia Association

Nov. 22, 2011 - PRLog -- dhc, provider of integrated software solutions has implemented a new financial management system for the British Dyslexia Association (BDA)  - a national charity, based in Bracknell, that provides support to the 10% of the British population with dyslexia. To enable the charity to maintain an intensive programme of activity, the BDA finance department is using Access Dimensions to obtain tight control over budgets.

At any one time the charity can be running numerous projects and many will span long periods of time. Using its existing accounting software the finance department were finding it a challenge to obtain a clear view of the costs associated with each project, which is essential for efficient budget allocation and management.

Available from dhc, Access Dimensions is a powerful Windows-based accounting and financial management suite that is ideal for helping charities to control costs and manage finances. Head of Finance at the BDA, Beverley Jones comments: “We required the new financial software to make it easier for us to manage and analyse all income and expenditure across the organisation such as specific project costs and payroll.”

Following the implementation of Access Dimension by dhc, the BDA now has the ability to run individual projects and the freedom to open and close them as necessary, as well as running detailed reporting via Microsoft Excel. It is also able to raise invoices from the sales order process and capture project costings, as well as scrutinise and report on the data in detail.

“dhc made the whole process of moving to a new accounting and financial management system quick, easy and unobtrusive to our day-to-day activities,” comments Jones. “The system is extremely user friendly, but they still took the time to ensure we were fully up to speed with the many functions and capabilities of the software, and how they can be used to improve the running of our finance operations.”  

Jones concludes: “Working with dhc and Access Dimensions was without doubt the right choice for the BDA. Together we have created a smooth working process where financial data is clearly and accurately displayed in a single view. The process of exporting data from Access Dimensions to Microsoft Excel is as straightforward as we wanted it to be and has eliminated the risk of human error by removing the need to re-enter data, as well as saving time and money in staffing resources.”
