Local Government Finance Platform

Financial Management Built for Municipalities

Local government finance has requirements that are different from those of a typical business. Municipalities manage multiple funds, departments, programs, accounts and spending requirements while maintaining accurate records and meeting reporting standards.

SmartFusion is designed around those needs. Its fund accounting tools standardize financial data, reduce manual entry and support routine processes across the organization. Finance teams can manage financial activity with greater consistency while departments can work from connected information instead of maintaining separate records.

SmartFusion also brings budgeting, purchasing, accounts payable, fixed assets and other financial processes into the same environment.

Fund Accounting and Financial Records

Keep financial activity organized across the funds, programs and locations that matter to your municipality. SmartFusion's Fund Ledger lets organizations structure accounts around their reporting needs and access detailed financial information when it is needed.

Multiple cash accounts and electronic payment reconciliation also make it easier to keep financial records organized and current.

Budget Preparation and Planning

Budget preparation often involves information from multiple departments and several stages of review. SmartFusion provides tools for managing budget requests, tracking versions and forecasting salary expenses as part of a structured budgeting process.

Once a budget is approved, it can transfer directly to the Fund Ledger for the new fiscal year, connecting budget preparation with ongoing financial management.

Accounts Payable

Manage vendor payments and related records within the financial system. SmartFusion's Accounts Payable tools help finance teams process payments, track payment activity and maintain a history of invoices and transactions.

Automation can reduce duplicate data entry and common errors while giving finance teams greater visibility into cash flow and payment activity.

Purchasing

Keep purchasing activity connected to the rest of your financial operations. SmartFusion supports purchase order management, requisition entry and customizable approval processes, with purchasing integrated with Fund Ledger, Accounts Payable and Fixed Assets.

This gives finance and purchasing teams a clearer view of requests, approvals and purchase activity throughout the purchasing cycle.

Fixed Asset Management

Maintain better visibility into capital equipment and other fixed assets. SmartFusion's Fixed Assets module tracks asset status and calculates depreciation across different accounts and fund sources.

Detailed reporting also gives finance teams a clearer record of their capital equipment and related financial information.

Bank Reconciliation

Keep cash accounts and payment activity organized with bank reconciliation tools. SmartFusion supports multiple cash accounts and electronic payment reconciliation, helping finance teams keep financial records aligned with banking activity.
