SYMPAQ SQL overview

What is SYMPAQ SQL?

SYMPAQ SQL is a complete cost accounting solution used by small to mid sized government contractors and non-profits to effectively run their businesses while staying in compliance with the DCAA (Defense Contract Audit Agency) regulations and A-133 audit guidelines. The system includes various closely integrated cost accounting functions for data retrieval and reporting of activities, and seamlessly updates other modules with dependent data for comprehensive project reporting.

SYMPAQ SQL's features package was designed to meet various requirements with focus on CAS (Cost Accounting Standards), and the FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulations). All modules are fully flexible and scalable, and reflect the components of project cost accounting including time entry, indirect cost allocations, indirect rate calculations, and labor distribution.

SYMPAQ SQL offers a large variety of essential core and add-on configuration options. The general ledger saves post transactions for auditing, calculates them for analysis, and reports them in various formats. The job cost module administers mission-critical reports, contract briefs, and various project cost and management operations.

Government contractors can use the labor and leave module to define employees, labor categories and human resource data. With the cash management module, users can register manual cash transactions, void receipts and checks, and even import cash journals. Other modules include purchase order, accounts payable and receivable, and payroll.

Key benefits of using SYMPAQ SQL

Government contractors can use the electronic time cards interface for one-step import and validation of timekeeping data which is processed as native time card data through the labor and leave module.

Users can ensure accurate and complete payroll reports with the ADP payroll interface that creates and exports files, and maps the earnings category codes between both ADP and SYMPAQ.

Contractors can avoid manually re-entering employee reimbursements using the expense import utility which enables companies to import validated expense reports directly into the system.

SYMPAQ SQL users can take advantage of the Unanet PSA interface that helps organizations to more effectively and accurately plan, track, and manage projects as well as project reporting, resource management, timesheets and more, all via the web.

Government contractors can use the payroll module to benefit from auto-generated payroll records with time and attendance data application, as well as determine gross-to-net pay utilizing the federal and state tax tables.
