What is Professional Service Automation (PSA), and how does Sage Intacct provide PSA support?

Professional Service Automation (PSA) is a phrase often used to refer to a wide range of software features built to serve service organizations such as IT consulting, outsourcing, and many other types of service providers. Many PSA software providers will use the term to refer to features related to the front of the project life cycle, such as proposals, estimates, and forecasting. PSA can also include resource management, time and expense tracking, vendor management, and project billing.

Why are Sage Intacct Artificial Intelligent timesheets changing the game for businesses that require time tracking?

Many service-based businesses constantly face revenue leakage, low utilization, and strained project profit. Accurate and complete time entry is a major contributing factor to these struggles. Sage Intelligent Time is the only AI-powered time entry system built into a full-featured ERP system. Sage Intelligent Time provides each member of your team with an AI-powered time assistant that provides suggested time entry cards based on that employee’s calendar, email, and other activity. Using machine learning, the Time Assistant gets smarter and continuously improves the speed and accuracy of your teams’ timesheet.

Sage Intelligent Time is providing a solution to an age-old problem for service-based businesses. Artificial intelligence and machine learning provide a tangible tool for your team to receive continuous and trusted insights regarding their time. With this insight, your project managers can make better decisions, your project pricing is more accurate, and your invoicing and close process are faster than ever.

How does Sage Intacct improve the billing process for HR service providers and PEO companies?

For many growing HR service providers and PEO companies, the billing process is too labor-intensive to scale. Billing for services can be complicated depending on the various elements you need to include on your invoice. Sage Intacct is built to handle even the most complex invoicing requirements, as well as the variety of revenue recognition methods that can be associated with them, including ASC 606. Automation around time entry, expenses, purchase orders, vendors, and all the other components required for billing, are instantly available for your team to quickly draft and issue invoices. Sage Intacct helps you to scale your business without being held back by cumbersome processes.

What type of financial reporting for a service-based business does Sage Intacct provide?

When it comes to financial reporting, automation, accuracy, and customization are critical requirements for an effective solution. Sage Intacct financial reporting excels at all three. By leveraging the general ledger’s dimensions, reports can be grouped and sorted in a near unlimited way. Financial reporting done right can provide the insight your financial team needs to go from burdened with administrative tasks to focus on strategic planning. Whether you’re creating multiple profit and loss reports or automating project reports for your project managers, Sage Intacct can handle what you need.
