Nobody likes paying bills. At least with the outgoing expenditure module you can record, track and analyse exactly what you are spending your money on! Simplicity itself to use, it will also help to reduce the time spent preparing information for the accountant and the costs involved in that process. As an integrated part of Practice Manager it assists in providing a complete picture and analyses over all aspects of your business.

Analyse the costs involved in running your practice... Practice Manager allows you to record and analyse the costs involved in the running of your practice, providing this information in a format that your accountant can use when preparing your tax returns and annual accounts. Powerful yet simple..... Coping with the demands of practices large and small... For a small practice you can simply record information about payments you have made, however, for larger practices with dedicated book-keeping and accounting staff there are all the functions and reports you would expect from a commercial accounting system. Working from Multiple Sites For those that need to use their Practice Manager software at different locations, DGL offer a unique "Clinic Merge" licence. This allows Practice Manager to be used on more than one PC concurrently (i.e.; an office PC and a laptop) with the information being periodically "merged" between all the systems. Each system will then "learn" the work performed on the other PCs. Clinic Mergeprovides a safer, more flexible answer to multiple location practices rather than using the "backup and restore" facilities that only allows one PC to be in use at any time. Additionally, Clinic Merge is specifically designed for the task and is not subject to the potential problems and errors commiserative with Backup & Restore whereby data may be accidentally replaced with out of date information or completely deleted. How it works... For each payment you make, you record who you have paid, the amount, and method of payment, date of payment and which bank account payment is being made from. You can optionally record additional information such as their invoice number, date of invoice, date of payment, receipt number and cheque number. Each payment can then be categorised and broken down into one or more payment groups. Practice Manager comes pre-loaded with a generic set of Outgoing Payment Groups suitable for most private practices, however you can easily add or change these groups to reflect the categories into which your accountant wishes your expenditure to be categorised. A Purchase Ledger is provided to allow you to record and report on future payments which you will need to make, such as to suppliers who give you 30-days credit terms. A database of suppliers can be maintained recording names, addresses, contact information, credit terms etc. You can then produce statements for each supplier showing payment that have been made or are due to be made. All the reports needed to satisfy your accountant... Over 20 reports and graphs of your expenditure are available, including full profit & loss, trial balance, supplier statements, expenditure by payment group etc. Summary of just some of the benefits...
