Accpac ERP includes a wide range of modules to handle the entire mining cycle, from development to exploration to production and sales. Accpac ERP is a highly configurable solution driven by workflow rules and authorizations to ensure accurate data capture and complete control over budgets.
Core Financial Modules
Accpac ERP is renowned for its rock-solid financials and reporting. The transactional analysis capability of all modules gives you more in-depth costing information than the general ledger. CFOs can now keep a concise general ledger with up to 10 levels of analysis, including comprehensive information on additional costs to equipment, cost centers, or responsibility centers for dynamic reporting
Workflow
Accpac ERP quickly and efficiently processes simple data entry requests from the mine to the appropriate cost centers or budgets with built-in, comprehensive authorization capabilities
The complete workflow process drives accurate data capture, improves decision-making, and reduces potential errors through a built-in authorization trail.
The Workflow solution manages procurement and internal stock issues by allowing for the creation of an unlimited number of workflows and associated rules and alerts. These simple-to-use screens provide CFOs with the correct information analyzed appropriately at data entry. As requisitions are made, they are automatically allocated to the appropriate cost centers, shafts, processes, and equipment, based on user profiles, stock structures, or expense codes. This saves time and eliminates the need for reallocations at month end.Asset Management and Maintenance
Accpac ERP appreciates the need for capital budgeting and end-to-end asset management. Investments in assets is a significant part of any mining operation, and Accpac ERP offers the appropriate controls over budgeting and procurement while ensuring compliance with IFRS and Sarbanes-Oxley.
Asset management is achieved through a configurable set of modules, from asset depreciation and acquisition to auditing and tracking.
Asset maintenance is a fundamental part of mining operations. Accpac ERP tracks the cost of equipment and provides a comprehensive history of all assets, including faults, agreements, warranty claims, return authorizations and a complete audit trail. This makes it easier to predict the asset’s life cycle and financial profitability with full statistical analysis.Production and Exploration Data
The production data capture module allows users to set up an area or operation against which costs can be tracked, such as shafts, open pits, or tailings. Beneath this layer of costs lies a lower level of processing such as shaft sinking, development waste or stopping (depending on the environment), which is linked back to the top level. Typically, the plant area will track the processing of material from all areas and link it to a sub-component of the general ledger account for reporting purposes only.
The modules allows users to specify units of measure for the production data captured, such as meters advanced, tons surveyed, tons hoisted and treated, and carats recovered. This is captured as needed – daily, weekly, or monthly – and linked to the business intelligence suite. Accpac ERP has been designed to manage surveying and monitoring activities and capture geological site survey information. Information from the mobile devices is integrated throughout the mining suite to give management increased visibility and operational control.Business Intelligence
Accpac ERP for Mining facilitates the creation of reports that combine actual vs. budgeted data with complete drill down to the detail level of production data – information every CFO needs.
The financial and production data is audited and approved, giving the Board of Directors comfort that operations and finance are in synchronization. The reporting modules allow for in-depth analysis at any level – right down to equipment or shaft information – which helps mining companies like yours make faster, better strategic decisions.
