feature highlights Financial Features

Zuercher Financial is a full double-entry accounting system, perfectly tailored to fit the unique accounting needs of a law enforcement agency in a manner that simply can’t be paralleled by a standard accounting package. The software is highly configurable, allowing agencies to set up their accounting system to match their real financial workflow.

Zuercher Financial integrates tightly with the Civil, Jail, and Records modules to seamlessly incorporate the financial side of civil process service, inmate billing, tow records, warrant service, pistol permits, bike registrations, and parking tickets. The software enables automation of the financial processes for these types of records. Invoices are automatically created when the record itself is created, and any standard fees agencies designate are automatically added.

Should a standard $27 fine be added to every parking ticket entered into the RMS? Financial can be configured to do that automatically. Should the fine go up to $42 if it hasn’t been paid after 30 days? Financial will do that automatically, too.

Financial data is clearly displayed on records such as civil processes and parking tickets, and cross-links are provided to the full financial records to make navigation easy. The main financial screen offers powerful search capabilities so that any financial record can be quickly located.

Zuercher Financial tracks invoices, receipts, deposits, disbursements, bills, and checks, and links it all together so agencies can easily track the flow of money. Users can check account balances; view a detailed transaction history; monitor customer balances; print ready-to-mail invoices, receipts, and statements; reconcile agency accounts; and much more.
