Claris FileMaker excellent tool for building budgets that make sense for operations while seamlessly integrating into QuickBooks.

Using FileMaker to build a budgeting tool is a great way to give your operations team members the information they need to make better decisions.
While we used a fairly simple example here, our budgeting tool was used to manage projects with budgets as high as a million dollars with hundreds of transactions.
With every column updating in real time as information was entered, the operations teams never had to wait on accounting to generate a report for them.
They knew in real time the impact of the decisions they were making to our bottom line.
While there are out of the box budgeting tools that can be purchased, none offered the flexibility we needed to run our organization.
The investment we made in building a custom tool paid back in record time as our profitability went up project by project.
Having real time budget information improves decision making and empowers employees to do their best work.
