FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Integration Services FAQs

We’re often asked how connecting systems improves billable hours and reporting. Here are the answers to the most common questions.

How does integrating CRM with finance benefit professional services firms?

Integration inherently comes with several benefits, not least of which are time saving and efficiency. There are very specific benefits when it comes to integrating your finance system with your CRM.

  • Integrating your CRM (such as Salesforce or HubSpot) with your finance system (e.g. Sage Intacct) provides a unified view of your business data.
  • The alignment of data with systems creates a free-flowing path that enables quick and efficient data transfer. For example, project and contract details automatically appear in finance.
  • Automated data flow eliminates manual rekeying and duplicate data entry.
  • Automation also minimizes errors during handoffs.
  • Quote-to-cash cycles are accelerated

Successful integration connects sales and finance into a single source of truth. The primary benefit here is that integrated data provides real-time insights into revenue drivers and project profitability.

Can you automate time tracking and billing processes?

Yes, we can. Legacy systems that were largely based on manual inputs, including manual time tracking, were prone to errors that delayed billing. This wasn’t good for cash flow. Modern ERP systems and integrations have completely revamped billing processes. Now, automated time and expense tracking ensures hours logged link directly to projects and invoices.

The resulting benefits include:

  • Double captures are reduced
  • Operational insights are more accurate
  • Billing cycles are accelerated
  • All billable hours are captured

The biggest benefit overall is improved efficiency, which saves time and enables your employees to leave administrative grunt work behind in favor of more productive client-centric strategic tasks.

The result is that your employees can focus on delivering high-quality, high-value services that improve performance and make for happy staff and satisfied clients.

How do you handle custom integrations for unique tools?

We know that some firms work with custom software that suits their business perfectly. Our specialist teams work with your existing systems, including middleware and direct API connections, as far as possible. So, you don’t have to purchase software you don’t actually need.

We do this by building custom API and database integrations that connect disparate systems with your central financial platform or ERP. By customizing your secure integration infrastructure, we ensure that data flows smoothly across your entire tech stack. This includes eliminating manual data imports and exports.

The result is the unification of your business operations so that you benefit from a centralized financial view that covers all finance-related operations, from AP and AR to reconciliations and month-end close processes.

Does integration help with complex revenue recognition?

It absolutely does. Many professional services have complex billing arrangements, for example, retainers, fixed fees, and performance and milestone-based models. We use advanced software, like Sage Intacct, to automate revenue recognition based on the billing model or models your business uses.

By automating these calculations through integration, you streamline the billing process, improve cash flow, and ensure that revenue is recognized accurately and on time without manual spreadsheet calculations.

The primary benefit here is a streamlined billing process. This, in turn, improves cash flow by removing bottlenecks and reducing delays between service provision and clients’ account settlement.

Automation doesn’t just work with numbers; it also ensures you remain compliant with industry regulations and legislation. For example, compliance with ASC 606 and IFRS 15 standards.

What happens if our software stack changes as we grow?

Not a problem. Our approach to integration is based primarily on scalable infrastructure. This means that business growth doesn’t require expensive upgrades. Instead, we use secure integration platforms and standard connectors that are designed with scalability in mind. Basically, your system’s capacity expands alongside your business’s growth.

This is exactly what you want because you no longer have to rely on updates that have the potential to break your fragile custom code. Instead, you can add new modules or switch specific operational tools and our flexible architecture makes the necessary adjustments without having to rebuild your entire financial ecosystem.

It’s a welcome, cost-effective system because not only do you save money by not buying new software, but the increased efficiency enables your staff to focus on billable hours, rather than painstaking admin tasks.

In a nutshell, your interconnected systems support your business’s expansion into new service lines or locations without technical bottlenecks.
