  • Accounts Receivable: Enter invoices and know when payments are due for better cash management of your nonprofit.
  • Budgeting–Financial Analysis: Create scenarios to project cash flow, and prepare future strategies.
  • Fund Accounting: Fund accounting software users will find the budgeting and reporting process to be particularly strong and easy to customize to their own needs.
  • General Ledger: Get a true picture of operations for reporting to management, advisors, and lenders with standard reports such as income and cash flow statements, balance sheets, and budgeting.
  • Payroll Integration: CenterPoint Fund Accounting integrates with CenterPoint Payroll, a payroll system designed to streamline payroll processes, saving your organization time and money.
  • Purchase Orders: Manage purchases and requisitions. Standard or custom reports help users monitor all orders and the appropriate quantities for purchased items. Purchase orders can be easily produced, modified, and received, and receipt of a purchase order automatically creates an accounts payable transaction for that vendor.
  • Report Writer: Customizable reporting in CenterPoint allows users to share information by exporting data to a spreadsheet, word processing, and other popular formats. Combine or separate departments within a report. CenterPoint can compare variances between actual data and the percent of the annual budget that has already been used.
  • Security: Company-level and menu-level security. Offers role-based access control and audit trailers to log user activities and system changes.

Extensive paperless options across the system

April 3rd, 2023 • Role: End User

We run an agricultural business with 150 employees. We run accounts payable, accounts receivable, full detail inventory, payroll and track 8 profit centers. We ach all payroll checks to employees and provide employees with payroll portal so they can see their paystubs. We ach as many vendors as we can and are able to attach invoices, receipts and many other documents to the transactions to maintain paperless operation. All information is instantly up to date. No “posting”. We have many users and are able to use security features to give each user just what they need. And if I have an issue, their customer service is always professional and knowledgable.

Pros

Very clean layout. Super customer service with someone you can understand. Always trying to upgrade and improve product. We have been able to scale easily with the software. Extensive paperless options across the system. Tons of online training if needed. Great Value.

Cons

Reports are pretty easy to customize to a certain level but scrolling on screen is a little funny on "interactive" view. They dont have much info out on their "api" to connect to other data sources.

Great support, very detailed and specific farm info available

April 3rd, 2023 • Role: End User

Our banker asked us to switch to it because Quikbooks doesn’t have the depth of info available. It’s a top analytic program for agriculture.

Pros

Great support. Very detailed and specific farm info available.

Cons

It's big and complicated. Took me a long time to learn what I needed to know.

The software works great and is very user friendly.

Pros

I like the ability to have as detailed of information as you need from reports. If the data is being inputted than it can be retrieved.

Cons

I would like the ability to lock a period from new transactions but allow journal entry as an option.

The reports are easy to customize and are so user-friendly

November 8th, 2019 • Roles: Purchaser & End User

I’m happy we upgraded our accounting and payroll system to CenterPoint. The reports are easy to customize and are so user-friendly. The drill-down features give us access to the info we need and make it easy to manage our fund accounts.

We also chose to integrate CenterPoint Payroll into the system. It really streamlines pay entry processes. We have been able to simplify our pay processes even further by adding direct deposit features, reducing our time spent and costs from printing checks.
