Thanks, Ross. We are definitely open to cloud options, but 8-5 Pacific time telephone support is also a requirement. Vendor location isn't much of a concern if that requirement can be met.

If you didn't mind the fact that support would be "remote" (Australia), our Visage R5 General Ledger & Financial Reporting packages might fit the bill. These can be deployed "stand alone" (ie: without our full ERP offering), though of course you would need to develop interfaces from your subsidiary ledger systems as required --> reasonably straight forward, just throw records into a file & pass a select list to our POST routine. There is also scope to include additional modules that you may consider part of the "General Ledger" banner (eg: Asset Register, Bank Reconciliation/Treasury etc.) if appropriate, now or in the future. Our enquiries typically support drilling through to source transactions, so there may need to be "some work" done to provide that capability into your existing systems Multi-currency is fully supported if required, as well as multiple consolidations across & within corporate boundaries if required. Beyond the basic manual journals & auto-reversing accruals there are variety of "ratio" posting options. Whilst we offer our solution via the cloud, we can also provide on-premise, which I assume is probably what you are after?

At some point the software was purchased by a company named IDEAS. In 2004, they stopped supporting the Pick version and migrated us to a client-server package that uses MS SQL as the underlying database. IDEAS is now owned by a company that services the oil and gas industry (which is not the industry we're in) and future support of the software is less than certain, so we're exploring other options. Can anyone recommend a good GL system? It doesn't necessarily need to be Pick-based, but either UV or MS SQL as the database would be preferred. We currently export the UV GL data as a flat csv file at the end of the month and import it into IDEAS.
