GetLinked Offers New Tools To Assist With Financial Integration

GetLinked adds educational tools and information to the website regarding integration

September 2 – GetLinked® reviewed the most common questions from restaurant and hospitality businesses wanting to integrate point of sale, payroll and other systems to financial accounting systems. With the review of these questions, GetLinked has added new tools and information to their web site addressing these specific inquiries and concerns.

The new tools have been created to assist customers when starting the integration process as well as guide them throughout the implementation. The new features include a Financial Calculator to see the actual cost and comparisons between manual and automated processes, diagrams and new Forum topics. These tools help make the transition from manual to automated quicker and easier for customers installing a financial integration system.

For years, GetLinked has helped owners and accountants review and understand how data from their point of sale (POS), payroll and other systems can be electronically connected to their accounting systems. The process of identifying what the customer can expect, what is needed and how to implement are the most common questions asked and are now documented and explained on the GetLinked web site and Forum. These new topics and diagrams help customers integrate their POS systems to their financial accounting systems no matter what system they use.

A few of the most common questions asked are:
How does integration software take my point of sale data (ex. daily sales, payroll, member charges, purchases) and convert it into accounting transactions?
Does integration software handle transactions from multiple locations?
How hard is it to get a system installed and working?

GetLinked Software addresses these technical needs in their software and by adding these new Forum topics provides quick and helpful answers that explain the complete process of financial integration.

The Financial Calculator results usually surprise the customer once they add up the labor costs versus the automation options. Just inputting the number of personnel, the hours and the hourly rate to operate most accounting departments is shocking. Once customers see the benefits of automating the bookkeeping process they know they need to implement a financial integration system.
GetLinked Software supports countless POS and financial systems and continues to develop interfaces as new systems come onto the market. With the GetLinked Software customers can electronically interface their daily sales from all stores into their accounting system either internally or use an accounting firm to handle all the recording details. Business owners and accounting personnel can now setup the interface once and record daily sales, payments, refunds, discounts, processing fees and more to the correct accounts in their financial system. Owners can review their financials in their own accounting system or from anywhere in the world 24 hours a day by logging into a secure site if using a cloud based financial system.

Laguna Development Corporation

I see it as a very important element in helping to make our business run smoothly and efficiently.”,
Michael Vodde, Controller

Company Profile:

Laguna Development Corporation was established in 1999 to manage the casino and retail businesses owned by the Pueblo of Laguna. Their diverse businesses are all conveniently located off Interstate 40 West of Albuquerque. Employing 1200 people, they are a major employment provider in the area with a reputation for providing quality products in a friendly, impeccable atmosphere.

Located in Albuquerque, New Mexico Laguna Development Corporation operates a casino comprised of 11 revenue centers and 26 purchasing centers. These centers include a casino, RV Park, Fueling Station, C-Store, Ace Hardware, Taco Bell, Dairy Queen, Grocery Store, Snack Bar, Gift Shop, Video Rental, Arcade and more.

Situation:

Laguna Development had a staff spending 40+ hours a week manually rekeying their daily sales and purchases. The original accounting processes were very inconsistent. They explored the option of internal programming to create a custom solution.

The Laguna Development staff were manually rekeying the daily sales and purchases for all the different revenues and cost centers from reports. They considered developing their own internal system for all the different transactions, but decided to use GetLinked® Software connected to four different systems. Their existing systems included micros® Point Sale and Sale, Store ChekPoint of Sale, CBORD Purchasing system and MAS200 Financial Accounting system.

Business Solution:

GetLinked was a great solution for Laguna. GetLinked allows them to get their data from their 11 revenue centers with the GetLinked software (Sales and Payroll) and keep track of their 26 purchasing centers with GetLinked APLink module (Payables) all with one piece of software.

Edward Khater along with the management at Laguna Development decided to implement GetLinked Software.   John Root was in charge of implementing the system and worked with GetLinked staff to complete the implementation. The solution implemented electronically transfers all the daily sales, payroll and purchases within the different systems to GetLinked Software.  GetLinked  converts the data into valid accounting transactions and transfers them into the appropriate MAS200 modules of General Ledger, Payroll and Payables.

Benefits:

GetLinked has saved Laguna Development time by allowing their data to be automatically transferred into their accounting with speed and accuracy. This has enabled the company to replace the work of 3-4 employees spending over 40 hours a week with one employee.

GetLinked has benefited Laguna Development in many ways: It has reduced the cost of manually rekeying data, eliminated the amount of human errors, increased the accuracy of data and saved money with the speed of transferring data into their accounting system. All of this leads to decreased labor costs and increased profitability.
