Case Study: City of Lebanon, Kentucky achieves 15-20% time savings and real-time financial control with AccuFund

City in Bluegrass Country Was Singing the Blues Over Its Legacy Accounting System

The City of Lebanon, Kentucky, whose administrative department handles payroll, taxes, licenses and budgeting for the county seat, was forced to replace an aging DOS-based accounting system after the vendor discontinued support. The legacy software limited timely general ledger posting and flexibility, so the city searched for a modern replacement that would streamline daily posting and improve control.

After evaluating several options, Lebanon selected the AccuFund Accounting Suite (core plus Payroll, Accounts Receivable and Fees/Taxes & Licenses), implemented with reseller Waypoints. The new system delivered immediate general ledger posting, easy cross-training, electronic import of property tax files, on-screen customer account lookups and customizable reports—saving about 15–20% of staff time. Staff report greater control and flexibility and strong vendor support, with the modestly higher cost offset by these productivity gains.
