Introduction
This article is meant to assist you with posting Days Care and other items to your accounting system. This is part of the optional add-on, Enterprise Financials. If you are interested in the extendedReach Enterprise Financials, please contact your Agency Administrator, or sales@extendedreach.com.
If you have a question not addressed here, you can contact support at support@extendedreach.com.
Explanation of Posting to Your Accounting System
Once the Enterprise Financials functionality is enabled, Charges, Payments Received, Adjustments, and Reimbursements, to Foster Homes, can be posted to a 3rd party accounting system (such as QuickBooks). Once Posted, these transactions can no longer be modified. (Adjustments are used).
Two types of files are posted to accounting systems:
1. Journal Transactions (Receivables):
All Charges, Payments Received, and Adjustment are posted as either a single consolidated Journal Entry for the month or as individual detailed Journal Entries. These Journal Entries consist of Revenue, Receivables, and Cash accounts.
2. Payments (Vouchers) and Credits to Foster Homes (Payables):
This file indicates how much to pay each home (or how much to credit if there was an overpayment).
Posting Security Level Requirements and Access
You must be an Agency Administrator to access “Administration” on the left side of your Workspace. Go to “Organization Billing”.
Steps for Posting Days Care (receivables) and Reimbursements (payables) to Your Accounting System

| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Post Type | From the drop-down menu, select Receivables to post revenue, receivables, and cash (Journal Entries), or Payables for Reimbursements (Vouchers and Credits to Foster Homes). |
| Post All Transaction Types | If you want to post all transaction types, leave that option selected. If you would rather post the Charges, Payments, and Adjustments separately, use that drop-down to select the transaction type that you'd like to post. |
| Post transaction through: | Click on the calendar icon and indicated the date through which this post will include. |
| Post to this month: | Select the month and year from the drop-down menu to which these transactions will be posted. (If you just generated a post, always use corresponding month and year you just generated.) |
4. This process will produce a file that you can upload to your accounting system.
This file can be re-created, but once you’ve uploaded this file to your accounting system, you have “Posted” to our system, or generated Days Care, for example.
