The updated system automates the following business processes: bookkeeping and management accounting, various types of taxes (VAT, income tax, property tax, transport, etc.), treasury using the components of MAYKOR-GMCS' solution. The system supports the whole scheme of payment movement and control, from the payment initiation, its agreement by responsible personnel through the approved routes with e-mail notifications to the document formation and payment transfer to a system "Client-Bank".

The solution also provides opportunity to obtain operational, analytical and regulated reporting, including under IFRS as a part of strategic management.

In the future, it will allow Korablik to integrate successfully Microsoft Dynamics AX and other systems," adds Denis Timoshenko, Business Director of MAYKOR-GMCS.
