Automatically Balance your Fund Transactions

Serenic Navigator ensures that each fund is balanced automatically at both the fund and fund class levels. Due to/from entries are generated automatically and are immediately visible to allow you instant inquiry and reporting. Advanced options allow you to distribute control entries for accounts payable, accounts receivable and cash transactions, thus eliminating the need for due-to/from entries in many instances.

Allocate and Track Expenses Proactively

With the ability to allocate transactions as they are entered and posted, plus the ability to check against available budget amounts, Serenic Navigator allows you to anticipate control issues rather than react to them. Use multiple user-defined criteria to learn about budget overruns before data is posted. Reduce your month-end surprises with proactive allocations and budgetary controls.

Manage your entire procurement cycle

Requisitions may be entered by both local and remote users utilizing web portals or Windows, and then tracked all the way through the purchasing, invoicing and payment cycles. All purchase transactions may be electronically verified for budget availability, as well as electronically routed for approvals based on your organizational policies. All electronic transactions are supported by email notifications with customizable text messages. Direct interfaces are provided for the purchasing of inventory items, as well as acquisition of fixed assets.

Monitor Budget Availability in Real Time

Serenic Navigator generates both commitment and encumbrance transactions as purchase requisitions and purchase orders are approved. This allows you to monitor available budget in real-time as the net balance after commitments, encumbrances and actual expenditures. Any new transaction entered is checked against budget based on your policies, thereby ensuring that budget transfers and exceptions are made proactively with a comprehensive audit trail.

Eliminate Paper

Serenic Navigator allows you to set up multiple business rules to govern how transactions should be evaluated for budget availability and other management approvals. All transactions entered into the system may be evaluated based on amount thresholds and routed to multiple people for electronic approvals. Budget control rules may be established by threshold percentages and then either stopped until budget amounts are made available, or until management approval is provided. All transaction events are monitored automatically with email notifications being sent to all interested parties. Eliminating paper increases operational efficiencies, dramatically reduces administrative costs, and improves the visibility of the purchasing cycle to all your users.

Reporting is a Snap

As a not-for-profit organization, you must report to multiple constituents on a regular basis to support your funding requests. Serenic Navigator makes reporting easy. Standard account schedules allow accounting users to quickly and easily define row and column formats. On-line account schedules provide instant drill-down to transactions, as well as quick navigation to supporting sub-ledger entries and source documents. You can report on any fund, program, grant or combination of these using Microsoft Excel, as well as deploy financial reports via the web. With Serenic Navigator's flexible reporting capabilities, you will be able to produce accurate reports in the correct format every time.

Satisfy Your Need For Knowledge

Advanced relational database technology inherent to Navision, called Sum Index Flow Technology, lets you examine individual transaction and event information - easily and immediately. Serenic Navigator continuously updates data to provide instant access to the latest information from anywhere in the system. Investigate specific transactions with drill down capabilities. Serenic Navigator's speed and easy access to real-time data leads to better operational efficiency for all your users.

Leverage the Power of the Internet

Take advantage of the internet to empower non-accounting personnel. Use the web to allow the entry of purchase requisitions, time sheets and expense reports. Also deploy financial reports to program managers and other department heads. Integrated web applications reduce your transactions costs by eliminating errors due to redundant data entry, as well as streamlining your operations by eliminating paper-based systems.

Save Time and Money

You want to spend your funding on your organization's programs and goals - not to compensate for software deficiencies. Serenic Navigator's rich feature set allows you to optimize consulting services to provide real, measurable value to improve your processes. Conserve your precious funding resources for your organization's mission and long-term succ
