Cost and Performance Accounting in Dynamics 365 Business Central.

At a glance:

The CKL Software GmbH is the developer of the add-on and works with sales partners like us who implement and support the add-on at companies.

A limited range of functions is

your challenge without the Add-On.

Do you need more advanced controlling functionalities, additional booking features and dimensions in Dynamics 365 Business Central?

Would you like to carry out further analyses such as target/actual comparisons that are not possible in Dynamics 365 Business Central Standard?

In Dynamics 365 Business Central Standard, standard functionalities for small and medium-sized enterprises are mapped with regard to the financial and controlling functions. However, some more advanced functionalities cannot be realized.

Missing functionalities:

  • Missing functions (e.g. flexible allocation rates, balance sheet accounts/P&L as cost elements, posting of services)
  • limited functions for reports (e.g. evaluations at transaction data level, individual evaluation of cost center/carrier)
  • different accounting systems cannot be represented in the standard system (e.g. flexible standard costing)
The controlling tool for cost analyses and operational evaluations:

CKLs solution: Cost and Performance Accounting.

CKL’s cost and performance accounting is an intuitive cost control solution for internal evaluation and analyses based on it. This may sound unspectacular at first, but look at the benefits: The add-on for Dynamics 365 Business Central/Dynamics NAV provides you with quick and clear information about your company’s revenues and costs. This way, you always maintain an overview and control over your finances.

The main modules are cost center accounting and cost unit accounting:

Cost Centre Accounting

A consistent subdivision into fixed and variable cost items is given. This can be supported by a fixed deposit of amounts or percentage shares at the respective cost types.

Cost unit accounting

If required, the Cost Unit Accounting module can be added, for example, if internal activity allocations and the costing of individual cost units are to be carried out.

Inquired:

Cost and performance accounting in the system standard and in the add-on from CKL.

The CKL Cost and Performance Accounting add-on builds on the Dynamics 365 Business Central or Dynamics NAV standard.

As a technology interpreter, I explain to you clearly where the standard is effectively extended.
