EPRO Business System

The EPRO Business System (EBS) is a set of fully integrated accounting system comprising of:

  • Accounts Receivable
  • Accounts Payable
  • General Ledger
  • Cash Book
  • Financial Report Writer
  • Job Costing
  • Purchase Order
  • Inventory Management

The system is cloud-based, and can be accessed directly through the browser.

The accounting system caters for three (3) financial years, Last Year, Current Year, and Next Year, with each year having thirteen (13) accounting periods to facilitate 4-week accounting cycle. The last period could also be used for Audit Adjustment purpose for companies using only twelve (12) accounting periods. With the three (3) financial years feature, the user does not have to wait for audit confirmation to proceed with the new financial year. In fact, the user could be posting transactions to both the Current and Next financial year at the same time.

The EBS provides an unique Job Costing system within the various accounting modules such that no duplication of entries is required to utilize the Job Costing features. Job Costs and Revenues are recognized only upon job start or job completion (the user has to define one method during the initial setup). The user simply charges to the appropriate cost or revenue accounts. If the charges are for jobs in the future periods, the systems will automatically reverse such charges to the advance cost or deferred income accounts during the Month-End process. In the period when the jobs are recognized, these advance costs and deferred incomes are again automatically reversed to the original accounts. This will free the user from having to remember jobs recognition dates, and the appropriate accounts to charge to during data entries.

The EBS has three (3) Reference fields for all transactions in the Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and General Ledger that could be tagged against any transaction. These have been used by shipping companies to track disbursement against Voyage, Vessel and Port of Call.

Transactions entered into the system are maintained for as long as the user requires, depending on the capacity of the disk. Posting is done on a transaction or batch basis, and the chart of accounts is updated immediately. Errors discovered after posting, eg. wrong accounts charged, wrong amount, typo errors, can be corrected by ‘unposting’ the transaction involved. This eliminates the needs to pass adjustment entries. However, once the Month-End process is done, the transactions cannot be ‘unposted’, and errors discovered subsequently can only be corrected through adjustment entries.

The EBS caters for foreign currency transactions. The currency amounts are entered and are converted to the local equivalent, and updated to the chart of accounts upon posting. Exchange gain/loss (realized) is calculated during the Month-End process, and is passed automatically by the system, saving much tedious work for the user.

The system allows contra of accounts between AP and AR within the same Payment Voucher or Receipt Voucher transaction. The users do not have to pass additional transactions to effect the contra.

A Daily and Monthly Bank Position reports are available to assist the user in managing the Cashflow for the company.

The Payment Vouchers can be created automatically based on the Cash Requirement Report.

The EBS is a flexible system that can be integrated to other front-end systems. The following integration has been created from EBS:

  1. Abacus Air-Ticketing System
  2. Point-of-Sales System
  3. Magazines & Books Distribution System
  4. Disbursement System
  5. SAP
  6. Medical Claims Proration System (used by the Singapore Government)
  7. CPF Board
  8. Property Management System
