Care Providers Software Solutions

Advanced Business Solutions has a strong presence in the care provider sector and is used by many care providers around the country to deal with their complex financial, HR and payroll requirements.

Our software has been designed to assist care providers in the running of their homes to meet the stringent rules and regulations as set out by the Commission for Social Care Inspection and the other governing and regulatory bodies.

Advanced Business Solutions offers a comprehensive financial management, procurement, projects, HR and payroll solution tailored specifically for care providers. Our solutions are extremely scalable, and can be suited to the smaller, less sophisticated or departmental end user as well as the larger, more demanding corporate requirements.

An important characteristic of this sector is the distributed nature of care provider organisations. Our solutions use a simple web interface and workflow routines that allow care providers to extend our back office finance, procurement, projects, HR and payroll and reporting systems to their distributed care homes and offices. This helps to reduce paper flows, reduce data rekeying and improve processes and efficiencies in the care provider business.

The components of our solution for care providers consist of the following:

Finance and Accounting

Advanced Business Solutions streamlines all your financial business processes for enterprise-wide financial management, providing workflow and process control, allowing you to make more informed decisions, improve operations and reduce costs.

The often complex and varied VAT charity requirements are provided within our accounting software, ensuring that customers from this sector have the breadth of functionality they require to administer and produce their accounts and reports.

Income Management

We provide the Advanced Business Solutions Advanced Income Management system that enables care providers to accurately set up and manage sales invoices for contracts and agreements with local authorities, primary care trusts and other funding agencies. Flexible invoice frequencies and formats combine with functionality to provide accruals and pre-payments, retrospective price changes, full credit control and so forth, so that the care provider is in control of the income management process.

Procurement

Advanced Business Solutions is a leading supplier of Procure to Pay (P2P) solutions to care providers, providing 'best of breed' electronic procurement software, including marketplaces and punch-out, to drive through efficiency and contract compliance.

Sub-contractors, Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) and retentions

The effective handling and processing of both sales and purchase transactions for contractors and sub-contractors is a key requirement for many project-centric organisations. Advanced Business Solutions provides a fully integrated sub-contract ledger which supports the processing of applications and certificates, CIS deductions and reporting, CIS Gateway submissions, effective VAT processing (including partial and non-recoverable VAT) and management of the whole retention process.

HR and Payroll

Our fully integrated HR & payroll system is a leading Human Capital Management solution, providing a flexible, easy-to-use, quick to implement, scalable and functionally rich solution. We work to ensure ongoing compliance and adherence to emerging standards and our software is fully HMRC accredited.

Time and Attendance

The Advanced Business Solutions time and attendance software module is a time recording system that allows employees to clock in and out by an electronic clocking machine; this enables the automatic creation of absences and payments. Users can allocate employees time over user-definable codes and full reporting allows tracking and monitoring of time. Used in conjunction with our flexi time solution, this gives care providers powerful capabilities for automating this area of their business.
