For many of you that equals a clean slate….time to start new with your goals for fitness, for paying off bills and saving for retirement. What are your goals this year at work? Do you want to reduce the time needed to close your books each month? Do you want to get a new certification? Do you want to train someone in your office to be your “backup”? I had the opportunity last year to work with several companies that called CAL to get an assessment of how they were using their system, and help them to come up with new more efficient strategies. I am happy to report that after our sessions, they were able to balance their checkbooks (many were doing this outside of GP); they were able to reconcile their subledgers to the GL; and they were able to feel confident that their team was working together more efficiently. If this sounds like something you are interested in, feel free to contact us. Our goal at CAL is to be a resource for you. We hope 2011 is successful for you both personally and professionally Amber's Tips & Tricks Prevent Documents from Printing on Your Check Stub Use the Payables Check Stub Documents window to edit check stubs.

For many firms, an investment in a document management system can pay for itself in under one year, while providing a long list of on-going benefits. Perhaps the top three are: Saving significant money compared to maintaining a paper-based filing system (and it is easy to quantify the ROI). Making it far easier to support remote offices and employees, while reducing the costs to do so. Eliminating lost and misfiled documents. Learn The Benefits of Going Paperless!
