The solution should have comprehensive reporting and business intelligence capabilities in the core application.

The solution should include human resource management capabilities.
The solution should have the potential to interact with existing timesheet applications.
Streamline payments to two suppliers, reconcile bank statements and automatically reconcile payments made.
Multilingual and currency capabilities for Asian branches.
