On-line accounting solutions provide a new level of freedom for
the business owner. Gain greater flexibility by managing your financial
records at any time and from any location. Rather than reviewing
your books or paying bills from the office at night, you can securely
access these functions from your home office or any other place
with internet access.
You do this by accessing a windows-based virtual desktop environment
which looks and acts like the desktop on your personal computer. The
data files are stored by an application service provider with stronger
security than the average small office environment. (The data is accessed
via 128 bit encrypted user ids and passwords.)
Other advantages include:
• Access records from multiple locations.
• Multiple users can perform accounting functions simultaneously,
eliminating
the need for an internal network. Each machine
simply needs an internet connection.
• Reduce capital expenditures on hardware; there is no need
for
top-of-the-line hardware.
• No backups necessary. If your computer crashes, your files
are safe and still accessible.
• No more disk swapping with your accountant. You simply grant
them access to your database.
• Work more closely with your accounting professional. By
allowing your accountant
access you can receive consulting in real time.
• Easily control security for different users.
• No software to install, no printers to configure.
How We Do It
Together we decide which steps in the process you want to perform
in-house. With your permission The Lardie Company can then access
your QuickBook data files and take care of the rest. You manage
the cash and disburse funds, and with accurate, up-to-date information
available, you can review and print reports at any time. Working
together we create systems to make it all flow. For instance, you
can use on-line bill payment and pay bills without writing checks,
and we can set up automatic payment reminders when appropriate.
Our goals is to simplify data entry process, automate where possible,
and create the reports that let you keep a close eye on your cash
flow and focus on making your business work for you.
