Intacct and b-50 Announce Integration for Online Multi-Site Restaurant Financials

September 16, 2003 (Los Gatos, Calif. and Minneapolis, Minn.)— Intacct Corporation, the leading provider of online professional accounting solutions, and b-50 Data Solutions, known for providing Business Intelligence for multi-unit restaurant point-of-sale (POS) data announced that b-50 has become an Intacct solution provider. Intacct and b-50 combined efforts to integrate b-50's F.I.R.S.T.® tool with the Intacct Accounting System to provide a new level of financial services for multi-unit restaurant entities.

By combining Intacct's online accounting and b-50's POS data capture capabilities, clients with multiple restaurants can have their POS data automatically posted to their accounting journals through Intacct's XML gateway. This automation dramatically reduces accounting errors caused by manual data transference.

"Intacct welcomes the opportunity to work with b-50, and foresees a long and profitable relationship. Our offering of professional accounting functionality is greatly enhanced for our multi-restaurant clients by the power and utility of the b-50 integration," said David C. Thomas, CEO of Intacct.

"We are excited about the combined opportunity that b-50 and Intacct now share. This integrated solution strengthens our offering, and reflects our ability and commitment to serve the multi-unit restaurant industry, as well as other retail franchise market segments," said Ken Johnson, b-50's VP of Sales and Marketing.

"B-50 has allowed us to automate many functions such as daily reporting to owners on yesterday's sales, cash flow and labor costs," said Bruce Andersen, president of United Business Service Corporation and Intacct user.
