Can DBA be used with a corporate ERP system?

Ideally, the DBA financial modules should be used to take full advantage of our small business ERP architecture, where all core business functions are processed within a single, integrated system scaled for small businesses.

There are situations, however, where using the DBA financial modules is not possible, such as when a company or branch office is connected to a corporate ERP system, but wishes to use DBA as its manufacturing solution. To address this need, we offer a Financial Transfer option that enables financial applications to be handled by an outside system.

The Financial Transfer option deactivates the DBA financial modules (AR, AP, Banking) and activates the Financial Transfer module. Core functions are divided between the two systems as follows:

  • DBA is used for inventory, bill of materials (BOM), sales orders, MRP, jobs, and purchasing, all of which post to the DBA general ledger.
  • The outside system is used for receivables, payables, banking, overall general ledger, and payroll.

Only three items are exported or manually transferred from DBA to the outside system:

  • Customer Invoices (Summarized)
  • PO Invoices (Summarized)
  • GL Account Totals (Period End)

Only summarized information is transferred to the outside system, which is all that is needed for payment processing and GL updating. All line item and transactional detail remains in DBA and provides a complete audit trail.
