First Nations
ChoiceTech Accounting Solutions has been working closely with First Nations for many years to provide cost effective solutions and support as required. We understand that software updates and changes to your accounting processes may take training and support. Updating your software in a timely manner with required training for new features is a critical part of the overall health of a First Nations accounting department. Adagio is an integral part of a First Nations finance department and has solved many inconveniences amongst this industry. It’s no wonder why Adagio has been voted as the 1st choice amongst First Nations for accounting software.
One of the solutions ChoiceTech Accounting has developed within Adagio for First Nations is to decrease the work load of the Finance department. We work with our clients to automate their Purchase Order process. Creating the initial requisition in the accounting system with a multiple level approval process is part of relieving the Finance department of a heavy workload. This procedure provides a painless year end process, decreasing year end cost of outside accounting firms providing auditing services. (Adagio’s data fits directly into CaseWare, which First Nations auditors love!) Each department clerk enters their own requisition, then program managers approve it before it is processed and approved by the next level for the department. This greatly decreases the workload of the finance manager as well as the Payables department.
We believe that Adagio is the best solution for First Nation accounting departments. Adagio has amazing financial reporting; it’s affordable and easy to learn. There are currently over 200 First Nations organizations using Adagio throughout Canada. Adagio understands that programs such as health, education, heritage, social services, housing and more, all need to be carefully tracked within the financial reports – Adagio does this, and does it really well.
Reasons why First Nations Accounting Departments should consider Adagio:

- Ease of Use and Program Stability
- Affordability
- Amazing Payroll Integration with PayDirt Payroll
- Recurring Batches in Receivables –for items such as CMHC housing
- Consolidated Financial Statements with Adagio FX
