Nonprofit Healthcare Facility Eliminates Data Entry and Overpayments by Automating Payroll in Microsoft Dynamics GP

Written by CAL Business Solutions | Mon, Dec 11, 2017
Sometimes when problems get complex, it is the simplest solutions that provide the best results. Such was the case for VNA Community Healthcare and Hospice, which used a complex and time-consuming set of procedures to process employee timesheets and make sure everyone got paid on time. Thanks to help from CAL Business Solutions, VNA was able to implement Microsoft Dynamics GP and cut the processing time in half.

Case Study: VNA Community Healthcare & Hospice-Nonprofit Healthcare Facility Eliminates Data Entry and Overpayments by Automating Payroll in Microsoft Dynamics GP

"We were manually entering 600 timesheets. Payroll took at least 18 hours a week. Now it is down to only eight hours per week with the Dynamics GP automation,” explained Maria Fowler, Payroll Administrator at VNA Community Healthcare and Hospice.

In the past the team would input the timesheet data into the old accounting system, but that system was not connected to the payroll system. They then had to manually perform payroll calculations before eventually transferring the information to the system that actually paid employees.

Leveraging the power of Microsoft Dynamics GP automation, CAL helped this non profit save 10 hours per week. Because the Dynamics GP Starter Pack now includes payroll at no additional cost, CAL was able to configure it to automatically extract raw data from the revenue system and then perform the necessary calculations to ensure everyone got paid on time.

Payroll reports are also now easier than ever, and the company saved $20,000 in just the first seven months after CAL found a calculation mistake in the old system they were using.

This non profit healthcare agency:
• Automated a complex payroll process
• Fixed a payment error resulting in substantial ongoing savings
• Simplified financial reporting
• Increased user adoption with a user-friendly system
