Case Study: Artichoke Trust achieves faster, SORP-compliant reporting with AccountsIQ

Innovative Approach to Multi-dimensional Reporting Killer AccountsIQ Feature for Arts Charity, Artichoke Trust

Artichoke Trust, a UK arts charity delivering large-scale public art projects, needed a more capable cloud accounting system to manage multiple concurrent projects, funding sources, and SORP-compliant project accounting. After Sage Financials showed serious shortcomings and was being withdrawn, the charity turned to AccountsIQ for a better fit, especially for dimensional reporting, project tracking, and analysis codes.

AccountsIQ implemented a cloud accounting platform with multi-dimensional BI codes, automated bank reconciliation, invoice/document attachment, and Excel-linked reporting for live SORP accounts. The result was faster period-end close, better control and visibility across projects, reduced manual spreadsheet work, and a record-breaking go-live in just two days—far ahead of the original two-week target.
