| Get
started quickly and easily. |
|
Amicus Accounting's multitasking environment
provides a simple-to-use interface designed
to make completion of day-to-day tasks
more intuitive and efficient. It's a familiar
graphical interface, similar to Amicus
Attorney. Note how the layout follows
your workflow and lets you move between
screen views quickly and instinctively.
|
 |
| Keep
track of your Time. |
Processing time can be a time-consuming
process! In Amicus Accounting, all time-related
activities can be performed from the Time
Module, including hourly or flat-fee time
entry, billable and non-billable entries.
You can quickly edit unbilled time entries
(or write-off unbilled time entries) and
transfer time across clients and matters. |
 |
| Keep
track of your Expenses. |
Enter and manage everything related to expenses,
from recording expenses and editing unbilled
expense entries to transfer expenses across
clients or matters. You can even write-off
unbilled expense entries. Once you've completed
your task, you can then quickly issue individual
payments or batch process your checks. |
 |
| Generate
Bills. |
This flexible billing program enables you
to generate bills for either individual
client files or for all client files by
name, matter number or file number, and
by any combination of Responsible or Assigned
Lawyer, File Type and Billing Cycle. Of
course, not only can you create bills, you
can also reverse and print bills - for single
clients or multiple clients. Amicus Accounting
also offers pre-billing functionality, the
ability to reprint bills, plus it can issue
A/R reminder statements, with (or without)
interest! |
 |
| Manage
your Receivables. |
The Receipts module is amazingly flexible.
It allows you to receive payments and post
them against invoices any way you like.
Record payments from clients and identify
outstanding accounts. Manage write-offs,
credits, refunds and fund transfers. Any
way you receive money, Amicus Accounting
can administer it. |
 |
| Keep
up on Payables. |
Amicus Accounting offers a broad Accounts
Payable Module that allows you to add, edit
and pay vendors, or automatically reverse
checks. Utilize the onscreen drilldown capability
to modify A/P invoices. You can also quickly
view key vendor information here (through
the "vendor inquiry" button). In addition,
this module offers support for forms 1099
and 1096. |
 |
| Check
Writing. |
Write checks to pay and post client expenses
in a single step. Trust checks can be written
on behalf of a client or general ledger
trust account. Integrated security features
help prevent trust overdrafts when writing
a check. |
 |
| General
Ledger - Complete Accounting Capability. |
|
A comprehensive G/L with a fully reportable
audit trail is included in the package.
Automatically post G/L entries for day-to-day
accounting! This is the place for account
and budget maintenance. You can even view
bank balances, as per the system's records.
This
is a complete accounting software package
- no need to link to anything else. Your
bookkeeper will thank you.

 |
| Total
Trust Accounting. |
Trust accounting is one of the elements
that differentiates legal accounting from
general business accounting. Amicus Accounting's
extensive Trust Accounting Module includes
recording receipts, enter and editing trust
checks, plus the ability to transfer trust
funds to pay A/R invoices. Transfers can
come from regular or interest-bearing trust
accounts. |
 |
| Robust
Reporting |
Amicus Accounting includes more than 50
reports, including Billing Reports, Management
Reports, Financial Reports and Income Statements.
|
 |
| Client
Matter Details & Account Inquiries. |
|
Clients are the heart of your business
and the beginning of any billing process.
The detailed Clients Module lets you create
and update everything related to client
matter details in one easy-to-navigate
module. This includes the ability to track
transaction by client and matter! And
as an additional security feature, you
can control access to the screens people
view, so if you don' t want anyone to
change your Client Matter information,
you can lock everyone out.
The
Inquiry Module provides secure, view-only
access to key accounting information,
including client matter files, general
ledger and vendors data. Since it's "view
only," nothing here can be edited or manipulated.
The
Client Matter Details screen and the Account
Inquiry screen show a wealth of critical
information. With a click of the mouse,
you can see all the client data and account
information in one central location! In
addition, you can access time, expense,
trust and A/R details with drilldown.
