    Unit4 Financials Business World On! Edition – solutions for the Office of the CFO as part of an integrated ERP suite for your whole enterprise.

  • A better solution

    Unit4 Business World On! helps drive success, with unrivaled financial management, planning, reporting and support for future growth.

    • Safeguarding business agility
      Business World On! is designed to be changed, developed and molded on the fly without costly programming or consultancy. So, for example, the Finance department can easily integrate newly acquired organisations or quickly implement account structure re-organisations.

    • Minimising compliance risks
      It helps CFOs to overcome mounting regulatory pressures by enabling end-to-end compliance across a wide range of regulatory regimes, for example: Sarbanes-Oxley, multiple GAAPs and IFRS.

    • Delivering better business visibility
      Unlike many of its competitors, Business World On! is purpose built to “get information out”. The data model can grow and be molded in any way relevant to individual users or the whole organisation (as it evolves in shape, size and structure).

    • Improving efficiency and productivity
      Business World On! is designed around helping its users streamline their day-to-day work, with clean and clear screens, role-focused tools, task-focused capabilities, new mobile apps and easy team collaboration. The results are well supported teams, who have more time to focus on value-adding, strategic work.

Key advantages

With Unit4 Financials Business World On! Edition, you can not only meet all your statutory accounting and reporting duties but also gain the rapid financial insights and answers you need to minimise risks, respond to change and seize opportunities.

Keeping you ahead of change

Today’s organisations need to continually adapt to structural “disturbance”, whether it is caused by a re-organisation, merger, acquisition or a new line of business. The costs to adapt financial systems are material and strategically significant. What sets the Unit4 Business World On! solution apart is its continued agility and flexibility that lets you adjust it yourself to embrace change – long after initial implementation.

Understanding and meeting your needs

With multi-company, multi-lingual and multi-currency capabilities, Business World On! can meet the needs of global finance departments, and also provides the usability and flexibility that smaller or more specialised organisations demand. Better still, your teams will love it because we’ve designed it from the ground up to be a joy to use!

More comprehensive for clearer insights

The strengths of our Financials solution are multiplied by its tight integration and two-way data exchange with the rest of the Business World On! ERP solution. The solution allows you to capture, monitor and easily work with vast amounts of critical financial data. What’s more, it not only serves the requirements of finance managers, but also collects and collates a wealth of information to support more in-depth business analysis across the organisation – helping to achieve overall strategic objectives as well as day-to-day tasks.

Better connected – more collaborative and mobile

Business World On! keeps vital information at your fingertips and enables you to work much more closely with colleagues, through a variety of built-in collaborative tools. Combine that with our new range of easy, convenient mobile apps and you’ll have all the answers you need, to stay in touch and up to date.
