If the accounting software doesn’t have a feature, can you add it?

We offer several reports that give you insights to help you identify bottlenecks in your process, drive efficiencies, and boost your firm’s profitability. Some of those reports include:

  • Capacity management: Get a complete picture of everyone’s capacity at a glance so you can easily re-assign work for overburdened staff.
  • Effective hourly rate: Identify which fixed fee clients are over budget and out of scope. You can use this data to fix your monthly engagements and increase firm profitability.

  • Client tasks: Find completed and incomplete client tasks so you can set up automations to follow them up.
  • Team activity:  Know what your team is currently working on. PS: Your team must be tracking time for you to see what they are working on.
How does FC help me automate client data collection?

Our system allows you to send your clients’ automated requests for data needed to complete your work. It will also follow up with them until they complete the request, so you never have to chase down your clients again. This automation allows you to spend less time chasing clients for information and instead focus on what matters most—getting your work and projects completed on time.

The client tasks report also gives you accurate data on completed and uncompleted client tasks so you can set up more frequent automations to follow them up. Accounting firm clients love the data collection process in Financial Cents because we use a highly secure password-less portal to help them upload information and chat with their accountants/bookkeepers.
