This is an opportunity to become listed as a training provider to whom we can refer clients requiring support with their ERP implementations from initial project planning, to ‘go-live’ and beyond – see www.centralaccounting.co.uk/implementation-support-and-training.
We had provided this support in-house initially, charging between £500 and £600 per day, but as we roll out the application we are looking to establish a network of suitable training providers who will contract directly with the end client to provide this – see www.centralaccounting.co.uk/trainer-notes.
We current provide application training to trainers on an ‘foc’ basis by way of:
Central Accounting has been developed in response to the lack of a viable, cost-effective solution for small firms from the main ERP application providers – see www.centralaccounting.co.uk/linkedin.
The main advantages of our application can be summarised as follows:
‘cloud’ based so no expensive hardware or networks to set up and maintain
secure remote access from (almost) any location making it ideal for multi-site, and flexible home/ office working
Software as a Service’ (SaaS) which means no expensive up front investment in specialist software or updates to the latest version
includes payroll so no additional cost for payroll software, and labour costs can be captured and analysed by department, project, or job
bookkeeping is being done in the background in ‘real time’ so accountants can spend their time focusing on the business instead of number crunching
designed for use by non-accountants with templates for common transactions to reduce error, routines for creating accruals and prepayments, and depreciation
on screen resource scheduling so work can be planned more efficiently and the impact of changes on other orders and jobs can seen immediately
on screen requirements planning shows not only what purchases or production is needed, but when, so there are immediate cashflow benefits
The main disadvantages of our application can be summarised as follows:
real time accounting means that it is not well suited to batch input of large quantities of documents, so it would not be suitable for bureau-type operations
it relies upon good access to the Internet, and so would not fare well in remote regions or areas where access is poor or unreliable (though this is becoming less of an issue in our view).
Of course not all small firms, and particularly very small firms, require the level of sophistication that an ERP application can deliver, and there are a number of similarly priced online solutions available that can handle basic bookkeeping. However it would be a mistake to assume that Central Accounting is only useful for manufacturing operations as it includes functionality which in addition to reporting on the performance of the whole operation, can also report by jobs/ projects, and departments, and is therefore useful for project based operations.
Uniquely it also includes ‘overhead recovery’ functionality which allows Charities and Voluntary Sector Organisations (“VSOs”) to report on a ‘Full Cost Recovery’ basis as required by guidelines issued by the Association of Chief Executive Officers in Voluntary Organisations (“ACEVO”).

What is Central Accounting?
Central Accounting is a cloud based ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) application – see www.centralaccounting.co.uk/erp-software for a guide to ERP, and www.centralaccounting.co.uk/features for the main features of the Central Accounting application.
