AbacusLaw Gold Time Billing and Accounting Software in Action!
The best way to describe how AbacusLaw Gold practice management software can work for you is to give you an
example. So picture the following:
You manage the law firm of Anderson, Bascombe, and Clark (ABC). On March 1,
your firm took on their first (and, for this example, only) matter -- a patent
infringement matter for Xtrafine Yard goods and Z ippers, Inc. (XYZ). XYZ
is to be billed at the end of each month until the matter is closed. The personnel
from your firm who will be handling the matter are Joanne Brown – responsible
attorney, Chris Umber – paralegal, and Nola Gray – researchers.
Your firm has also hired Peter Sienna, a yard goods specialist, as a consultant
and you will use CCC Printing to photocopy the exhibits.
First, you set up XYZ as a client, patent infringement as a matter, Peter Sienna
as a vendor, and CCC Printing as a vendor. Joanne, Chris, and Nola are already
set up in your system as timekeepers.
As Joanne, Chris, and Nola work on this matter, they record their time by simply
clicking the bill button in AbacusLaw from any note or event linked to this particular
matter. They can also record time by clicking the bill button from the linked
events screen on any name related to this case. As invoices arrive from Peter
and CCC Printing, you enter them in Accounts Payable and as a billable item for
XYZ. At the end of March, you use the Print Prebills function to preview the information
before printing their bill. When you activate this function, the program searches
for all time tickets with the XYZ client code and patent infringement matter number.
It locates all the time tickets entered by Joanne, Chris, and Nola and calculates
their hours. Since Joanne, Chris, and Nola are billed at different rates, the
program multiplies their hours by their billing rates to calculate the total billable
hour’s amount. It then locates any other billable costs to be added to the
bill. In this search, the amount billed for Peter and CCC Printing would be found.
With all the calculations done, the system generates a prebill that shows the
client billing address information and the hours billed along with the costs owed.
(If you have set up your system to calculate a percentage of the billed time as
administrative overhead, the program will perform that calculation and include
that amount on the prebill.)
After you review the prebill and find everything is correct, you then activate
the Print Bills function. The program will then print the bill for XYZ. It will
also, when you post this bill, update the client’s ledger (and all tables
in the database that are affected by this transaction).
When you receive payment from XYZ, you enter the payment on the XYZ account. The
program will update XYZ’s account and your General Ledger.
Now that your firm has money to pay Peter and CCC Printing, you activate the Print
Check function in Accounts Payable and print the checks for Peter and CCC Printing.
The system will then update your accounts payable and general ledger tables in
the database.
With a small number of entries, a few keystrokes, and very little time, you have
completed all the financial transactions for this client.
