BI & Reporting

Turn raw data into easy-to-understand reports

Get immediate access to key information, in an approachable and intuitive way. Choose from a library of standard SQL reports and adapt them to your needs, stay proactive by notifying designated staff when exceptions occur, and drill down to transactional data for trend and KPI variance analysis. With an open data structure, IRIS Star Practice Management is also easy to use with third party tools like Microsoft BI.

Time & Expense Entry

Quickly turn WIP into bills

Make sure the maximum amount of time and rechargeable expenses are captured for every job. IRIS Star’s time and expense entry makes it easy and intuitive for users to log their time, link expense receipts and PDFs, and follow your firm’s defined workflow for approval and reimbursement — from anywhere.

Billing

Reduce lockup and improve cash flow

Send bills to your clients as soon as they’re approved, rather than waiting for weekly and monthly production runs. IRIS Star lets you automatically generate targets for the following year, email bills to clients in PDF format, or generate recurring bills to save time. And with direct access to all your engagement documents during preparation and approval, you have everything you need to get bills out the door faster.

Payments Portal

Make it simple for clients to pay you

IRIS Star’s integration with the Apxium and Aiwyn payment portal allows your clients to pay bills faster, using their choice of payment methods. Every bill you create in Star is passed across securely to Apxium or Aiwyn, and every client payment is automatically received in IRIS Star. Everything is identified and reconciled, creating less work for both you and your clients and helps you to stay on top of your credit control.
