Anyone who knows even a little about the file structures in
their DMS knows that it's usually not very pretty. The information is there,
but it's often scattered in so many places that you have to be part programmer
just to figure out how to get to it and then make a complete picture from
it.
Welcome to Expense Master from Grayfox Software and Sandi Jerome
Computer Consulting. Expense Master takes that scattered data from Reflection
(ADP), ERAccess/EraLink (R+R) or OfficeMate (Auto/Mate) and consolidates it into
meaningful information. It's then imported into a special report we've created
that enables you to see all the expenses for a certain vendor for the month – or
see the combined expenses for a certain account number. It uses vendor and base
account analysis. You can then print all or a portion of the report. Created in
Excel, you can run and refresh monthly, then save as a monthly file, e.g.
ExpensesJuly2010. By analyzing and saving your expenses, you are starting the
first step to Sandi’s method of Item Expense Detail and reducing expenses (see
Super Controller II Guide – Expenses.)
