Unity is a Trust and Company Management System that integrates the three key aspects of trust work: database, accounting and time fee billing into a simple, flexible software package.

Our aim is to produce stable products relevant to the offshore industry. Relevance is achieved through monitoring changes in clients’ requirements and new technology. Stability is achieved though implementing only appropriate changes in a considered and careful manner.

database
Unity’s database allows you to maintain legal, Know Your Client and other important information about various types of entities from a centralised location. This main screen acts as a hub showing summaries of share registration, accounting, WIP and billing. This reduces the time spent searching for important information.

accounting
Unity has a general ledger, multi-currency, multi-company accounting system. This module was designed to be simple to set-up, use and maintain. The Journal Entry form has been designed for the professional bookkeeper. The keyboard-only data entry ability enables swift and accurate journal posting.

time & fee billing
Unity’s time and fee billing system is flexible enough to meet the needs of the most demanding company. Time and expenses can be entered in a controlled manner with management reports to monitor staff performance. Bills can be created ad-hoc or in regular bill runs and once confirmed the billing system is integrated with your office books to enable effective debtor management.

crystal reports
Crystal reports has been seamlessly integrated into the Unity program allowing standard and custom reports to be added at any time. These reports can have parameters that permit filtering, sorting and grouping to allow a single report to meet multiple requirements. All Crystal reports come with the ability to export to a wide range of formats including Excel and Word.

excel reporting
The Excel query wizard can be integrated into the Unity menu system and used to build reports.

security
The security system allows you to restrict groups of users to access, change, add and amend each form within Unity. This can restrict users from some areas of Unity entirely or allow some users to view certain forms while others have full amend, add and delete rights. Unity also allows you to restrict clients and ledgers to the members of specific groups.

add on functionality
Additional functionality can be integrated into Unity using programs developed in Visual Basic for Applications stored in Word or Excel. This ability allows us to meet changing client requirements quickly without frequently amending the core Unity program.

Microsoft Access 2000 front end
Access 2000 is used as the program front end of Unity. The speed of the development process is greatly increased due to the inbuilt data manipulation features of Access 2000. Reliability and compatibility are gained using one of the applications in the Microsoft Office suite.

SQL 2000 & 2005 database
Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft’s premier database solution was chosen for its key benefits of scalability, availability and performance. It allows Unity to scale from five to many hundreds of users, utilising effective transaction processing to ensure data integrity Unity has been tested with both SQL 2000 and SQL 2005.

pricing model
Unity is licensed on a per-user, per-annum charge that includes maintenance and upgrades. This pricing model avoids an initial capital investment and ensures you are kept up to date with changes in technology.
