The Entertainment Industry’s Best Accounting & Payroll Software.

Our solutions are made for the business of production. For more than 20 years, we’ve provided high-touch payroll services, innovative technology, and industry expertise to production companies, emerging filmmakers, and studios.

From budget to delivery, we streamline the production office so production teams can focus on what they do best – making inspiring content.

Entertainment Payroll

Streamline your production payroll. We know that every production is different and offer services and flexible software options designed to fit your needs.

Our system uniquely leverages one database to seamlessly submit timecards, view cheque copies, and initiate purchase orders and cheque requests in a single application built for digital workflows.

  • Digital approvals with history tracking. Collect all signatures digitally, add notes, and stay in the loop with in-app and email notifications throughout the production process when items need your approval.
  • Customizable workflows and approval flows. Tailor processes for your production’s specific needs. Set rules for approvers, by person or by role, and indicate the order of approvers, whether an approver can be skipped, and who needs to sign.
  • Online batch approval with batch actions. Quickly process tasks in bulk and view, approve, reject, or delete as many lines in one action as needed.
  • A full reconciliation report provides payment summaries for Union Remittance, PR Withholding Tax, Provincial Workers Compensation, and Provincial Employer Health Tax at the end of production.
  • 24/7 employee self-service online access. View or print pay stubs and earnings reports.

Production Accounting

Accessibility is everything. We design each feature of our software to allow you to access the information you need, when you need it, on any device, from greenlight to delivery.

Our innovative platform is designed by production accountants for production accountants and is evolving the entertainment industry’s back-office.

  • All reporting is included. 
  • Chart of Accounts synchronization across all projects.
  • Vendor and AP management. Code and record T4A, Provincial Tax Credit, Harmonized Sales tax (HST), Goods and Services tax (GST), Provincial Sales tax (PST) and Quebec Sales tax (QST).
  • Cloud storage of all files. Upload backup, such as invoices, receipts, etc., attach scanned documents to transactions, and access these from anywhere, directly from the General Ledger.
