"I started my search looking for a solution for our smaller hotels, to be able to process invoices remotely and reduce or eliminate the keypunching and mailing of invoices. I talked to several companies and asked for hotel references, and the response back was our product will work for any business which I did not believe. After my first 5 minutes with BirchStreet I said, ‘Wow, you are a hotel guy!’ The two other features that was important were Purchase Orders and Checkbooks. BirchStreet delivered both of those and more. The POs are created automatically from many of our existing suppliers (from their website or catalogues). The Checkbook is updated from either POs or invoices, and the Checkbook forecast is automatically updated from our GL system.The electronic approval with email alerts eliminated the ‘walk and wait’ manual approval system for our previous paper POs, and reduced the ‘after the fact’ POs. Using a scanning company also created a paperless environment. Many invoices go directly from BirchStreet to our Accounts Payable system after the auto-matching of the PO to the invoice, and Accounts Payable never touches the transaction. BirchStreet ended up being a terrific solution for not only our smaller hotels, but our larger hotels too.”

"I would like you to know that I am very grateful for the acquisition of the AccuBar Handhelds and their uses at the Caribe Hilton. The acquisition of these handhelds for inventory purposes has been one of the best purchases we have made in many years. The AccuBar inventory system has been a considerable asset to the hotel and has helped us significantly reduce the costs of beverage. In addition, it has made the month end closing a much simpler and faster process. In fact, as recently as last month, an internal audit was made in the Hotel and the Inventory section of the audit obtained an A+ score, making the Caribe Hilton inventory section one of the bests in the region. In today’s fast paced, deadline oriented work environments, this handhelds are a convenient and very easy to use tool that makes the whole inventory process a simple and quick experience."
