Sage equips customers to create intelligent organizations by embracing digital transformation at Sage Intacct Advantage 2020 - Seite 2

When it comes to digital transformation for Finance, Sage Intacct helps teams transform the close process from a set of activities that happens at the end of the month to activities that happen continuously. This gives companies ongoing visibility into the state of the business, not just after closing the books—delivering unmatched insights to improve decisions and understanding of the business today and freeing CFOs to focus on guiding the business into the future.

During the keynote, Sage highlighted several product enhancements to Sage Intacct along three key areas—continuous accounting, continuous trust, and continuous insight.

Continuous Accounting
Continuous accounting capabilities enable timely and accurate information by streamlining processes within finance and across departmental and company boundaries. In this area, Sage showcased two new products—Salesforce Advanced CRM Integration for Nonprofits and Sage Intelligent Time.

The tight front to back-office integration between Salesforce and Sage Intacct already brings digital transformation to life by providing real-time visibility to sales and finance while streamlining workflows and collaboration between them. The new Salesforce Advanced CRM Integration for Nonprofits provides industry specific capabilities by putting data into the hands of nonprofit program and development staff for direct insight from Salesforce into transactions and budget without having to ask accounting. The integration also ensures the data stays in sync and reduces the reconciliation burden between the CRM and accounting systems. With increased levels of visibility, nonprofits can more easily guide their strategy, take a more data-driven approach to future fundraising campaigns, and continually improve performance—putting them in a better position to deliver on their mission.

Sage Intelligent Time is the first artificial intelligence (AI) powered application built directly into the Sage Intacct platform. Initially introduced last month, Sage Intelligent Time provides continuous, timely, and more accurate insights to better manage billable time in services-based businesses. It uses an AI-powered personal time assistant to enable service professionals to complete their timesheets more quickly and accurately by automatically reconstructing their workday—helping to ensure all billable time is captured to reduce revenue leakage, improve project profitability, and increase revenues.
