Session Description:

For a while, QuickBooks was just what your organization needed to save time on everyday financial tasks like invoicing, collecting payments, managing payroll, basic reporting, and seeing your big bookkeeping picture at a glance. But now your organization has matured and grown beyond these basic accounting tasks to a point where it needs to more comprehensively and more intelligently empower its people, manage and analyze its finances to increase productivity, improve decision making, enhance compliance, and grow.   What does Microsoft Dynamics GP and Dynamics SL do that QuickBooks cannot? Why is this important? Is it worth your investment? This session will help you assess your financial stage in the organizational lifecycle and determine the level of financial management system intelligence you’re ready for.
