ERP FAQs: What Does the Term "Core Financials" Mean?

When looking at ERP software systems, you may notice the term "core financials" used in the discussion.  Today, we want to give you a little more insight into what core financials refers to.

Core Financials describes the base financial accounting software modules, such as those found in Sage 500 ERP, and include:

• General Ledger
• Accounts Payable,
• Accounts Receivable
• Cash Management
• Purchase Order
• Multi-currency Management
• Allocations
• Active Planner Budgeting
• Fixed Assets

These are the basic "core" modules that will help you operate your business from a financial perspective.  There are a number of other modules available to help you manage other areas of your business, depending on if you are involved a warehouse distribution, manufacturing, or even process manufacturing.

ERP FAQs: Can Our Current Data Be Converted to the New ERP System?

When embarking on an ERP software implementation, many companies are concerned about the transfer of their current data into the new system.  While each business will be unique, you can rest assured that in most cases your current data will be able to be converted to the new ERP system.

The EVS consultants rely years of experience from working within the manufacturing and distribution industries to guide your business through an ERP software system implementation.  EVS consultants can discuss the options that are available more in-depth.

ERP FAQs: How Long Will It Take To Implement The ERP System?

Potential clients often ask, "how long will it take for the ERP software system to be implemented?"
