<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Three years ago the MCOECN selected eFinancePlus (eFP) as full service software option to be implemented and supported by ITCs. As of today, over 75 districts in Ohio (including traditional
K-12 districts, ESCs, career centers and ITCs) are using eFP, or are in the process of converting to eFP.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">After the initial conversion, many districts are finding the savings on these products covers or is very close to covering the annual cost of the user fees for eFinancePLUS.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif""><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The basic functionalities described above are only the beginning of what a full service software package can do. These sessions will emphasize the benefits of the software so you may make
an informed decision about which direction your district will go: a basic accounting and payroll package. or a robust software that encompasses accounting, human resources, Ohio-specific reporting (including EMIS), fixed assets, budgeting, Cognos reporting
writing capabilities <span style="color:black">and so much more.<u></u><u></u></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif""><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Every district that has been through the eFP conversion process will say cleaning out old files, setting up a new software, and updating business processes to the 21<sup>st</sup> century
is well worth the effort. While this does require additional time and effort, school districts are seeing vastly improved business operations in the treasurer’s office and districtwide. The easiest and least<span style="color:black"> expensive path is not
always the best path as most of us know from past experiences.<u></u><u></u></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Conversion and ongoing support from the ITCs is phenomenal. Converting to eFP has evolved into an efficient streamlined process, and the support after the conversion is what we expect from
our ITC – exceptional!<u></u><u></u></span></p>
