ACS

Realm

Don't start over from square one.

Like most churches, you have many funds for your various ministries and outreach efforts. And while ACS Financials allowed you to track the money behind those ministries, Realm Accounting goes deeper by providing true fund accounting with account segments for you to track even greater details.

But we don’t want you to start all of your financial processes over from scratch. We will transition your chart of accounts, budgets, general ledger transactions, and vendor lists from ACS to Realm. This includes bank accounts, funds, departments, committees, area 1, area 2, projects, and invoices.

"The main reason we switched to Realm is that it allows us to do our church accounting through Realm Accounting. So for the first time in the history of our church, we’re doing online giving through Realm. The giving statements, the contributions, and having the ability to see your contributions in real-time that you’ve made is game-changing for us."

"With Realm, we were able to consolidate member information, financial information, and other important church data into a single system."

"Realm is phenomenal, and I don’t use that word lightly. It has changed the way we complete our business transactions and our administrative ministries. It’s hard for me to always see the ministry in accounting practices, but Realm puts a service face on everything from attendance to general ledger transactions."
