The very nature of managing training events and educational courses is time consuming and resource intensive. AGORA Training & Education Manager was designed specifically to automate the entire process of managing the courses, schedules, instructors, attendees, locations, registrations, resources, training materials and financial information necessary for organizations to be successful. Because AGORA Training & Education Manager integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Great Plains, training organizations and educational institutions can leverage a single solution to manage the financial processes and training and course related activities required to run their business.
Financial Management & Reporting
From entering orders to generating invoices ... all of your financial processes can be streamlined using AGORA and Microsoft Great Plains Business Solutions. All front office activities are managed by AGORA and all back office accounting information is stored directly within your Microsoft Great Plains Business Solution.
Within the Accounts Payable portion of Microsoft Great Plains, you can link expenses to specific activities, courses or events. Using the budgeting feature you can easily track estimated vs. actual expenses to track the cost of each and every event or activity within the system.
AGORA generates invoices and processes them on the fly using Microsoft Great Plains Sales Order Processing (SOP) engine. Once a SOP invoice is posted within Microsoft Great Plains the amount is automatically transferred to the appropriate account. Payments are entered directly into Microsoft Great Plains Cash Entry Window at registration or as checks are received. Deposits can be entered as cash receipts, marked as a liability and then tagged to a specific customer.
AGORA also tracks deferred and recognized revenue and produces detailed Profit and Loss Reports for each training class or course entered in the system.
To ensure you have the information you need to make quick business decisions, AGORA Training and Education Manager comes with several management and financial reports. In addition to the standard reports, you can create custom reports to meet specific needs you may have using popular applications such as FRx and Crystal Reports.
