Why Us

Metaphor Software is a partner-friendly organization.
We work with partners in multiple ways:

We utilize a channel distribution model to resell our software applications. We can augment your implementation team with our very skilled staff of functional and/or technical consultants. Application Reseller and Implementation Partner Metaphor Software has developed applications that are fully integrated with Microsoft DynamicsTM AX and Microsoft DynamicsTM CRM.

• FUNDamentals 2008 leverages the Dynamics^TM AX platform and provides robust fund accounting capabilities for the Not-For Profit, Government, and Education markets. It is the only Dynamics AX-based solution that enables organizations to comply with the FASB and GASB accounting standards. FUNDamentals 2008 tracks encumbrances and commitments and provides organizations with the ability to track fund revenue and expense data across fiscal years.
  
  FUNDamentals 2008 is also applicable for the commercial marketplace. It enables a company to process transactions across business units. In addition to handling inter-unit transactions, FUNDamentals 2008 will provide both individual business unit and consolidated financials.
