SAN JOSE, Calif. – Jan. 22, 2013 – Intacct, a leader in cloud financial management and accounting software, today announced Potential Church is using Intacct to improve its operations. Intacct provides the church with a modern, full-featured financial management and accounting system that has eliminated slow, manual processes and enabled real-time visibility into operations. By streamlining revenue recognition, fund accounting, and accounts payable with Intacct, Potential Church has halved the length of its monthly close and is saving approximately $80,000 in finance staffing costs each year.
In a new client case study published today, Intacct highlights the results Potential Church is enjoying as a result of graduating from QuickBooks® to Intacct church accounting software. Here is a quick overview of the profile:
Previous Business Challenges:

Results with Intacct:
- Reduced time spent on monthly close by half, Accounts Payable processing by one third, and weekly revenue recognition from five days to one
- Gained ability to easily track, manage, and report on 13 church locations with instant access to the right information at the right time
