Jewel Reporter

Jewel Reporter

Introduction: Reporter is a 'Jewel Church Accounting System' product designed to fulfill the following tasks:

1. Map Jewel Accounts to the Conference Accounts - such as used in AASI.

2. Create a Deposit of Church Remittances and upload it to be imported into AASI.

3. Manage and create ACH files from the Remittances, then create the file that can be sent to the Conference bank for collecting the Remittance monies.

4. Provide various reports - Remittance and financial.

5. Managing work tasks and passwords for Reporter and Auditor.

Purpose of Reporter: "How does Reporter save time and money?"

1. ONE time mapping of Jewel Accounts to Conference Accounts, (permanent) not every church every month, proliferating errors.

2. Never TYPE Remittance Reports again. Import digitally rather than using the keyboard.

3. Never process a Remittance check again. Never manually type a spreadsheet of ACH info. Receive it from Reporter with a click.

4. Conference Treasurer and certain Accountants have instant access to information that affects the Conference financials.

5. Conference Treasurer has control over the information and tasks that staff have access to.
