Case Study: Iridium Satellite Communications achieves 90-95% on-time timesheet submissions and streamlined Dynamics GP Project Accounting with Journyx

Iridium Communications Finds the Right Solution for Dynamics GP Project Accounting at the Right Price

Iridium Satellite Communications, a global satellite-communications company with about 425 employees and contractors, relied on Microsoft Dynamics GP Project Accounting and had been using Project Timesheets with Business Portal. After upgrading to GP 2013, Business Portal proved incompatible, forcing Iridium to run an old server and migrate data for a year while searching for a replacement; they engaged Journyx to provide a modern, compatible timesheet and project-accounting solution.

Journyx implemented a tightly integrated timesheet system (including Accountlink and Reportlink plus mobile access and professional services), adding multi-level approvals, data validation, overtime/accrual calculations, and automated notifications that sync project time back to Dynamics GP. As a result, Iridium now sees 90–95% of timesheets submitted and approved by noon on the second day after period close, eliminated a previously manual 4‑hour labor-rate calculation, accelerated close processes, and runs a low‑maintenance solution.
