Business Type : record label 




The system setup in Dynamics GP enabled the owner of the Record Label to access the profitability of each album release, taking the following into consideration:






Sales by region (country) by distributor 
 
Licensing income by region (country) by distributor  

Cost of Sales by region (country) by distributor

Promotional costs by regions (country) by distributor
  


Pre production and production costs
  
marketing costs by region (country) by distributor
  
Artist and publishing royalties paid
  
The system would also produce reports on the profitability of each artist (including all albums distributed by the record label), each distributor and each region.  It also monitored all stock movements between warehouses.



The system also catered for "profit share" agreements.

 

Business Type: Music industry distribution company  




The system setup in Dynamics GP supplied the distributor with information such as:






Sales by distributor  

Accrued cost of sales bu label  

Net contribution to gross margin by distributor

The system was able to generate Self Billing Invoices to all labels, this was done as an integrated system with Dynamics GP..



Information from distributors was imported into Dynamics GP via Integration Manager.

 

Business Type: Construction industry  




The system allowed for monitoring of costs per unit (house) built by building phases such as site clearance, excavations, foundations, walls, glazing, plumbing, roofing, finishes etc.  The actual expenses incurred where compared to the phase budgets and variances reported on.  It also monitored the amounts paid to the same contractor/subcontractor doing the work covering multiple units, comparing quoted pieces to actual costs billed to the project.

 

business type: Commercial Printers  




On the accounting side KMS developed a costing system which computed the recover and charge out rates for each printing machine on the factory floor.  These charges along with prices of raw materials were used in creating estimates for all jobs quoted on.

 
We also designed and programmed a computerized job costing system which interfaced into a standard accounting package (Omicron Power System).  The system was created in the database environment and covered the following:







Printed out job cards per job  

Maintained costs per job with reference to Originiation costs, die making costs, material costs (paper, card, ink etc) and machine costs (time on machine at recovery rates. 

When the accounting system created an invoice for the job, the details were downloaded into the costing system so that the job could be closed and the profitability of the job computed.

The system allowed for partial deliveries and part invoicing with a claw back of costs for the non delivered portion of the contract on either a percentage of costs or actual costs by origination costs, die making costs, materials used and machine time/costs.
