About the partner
NASCONCEPTION GmbH, founded in 2012, is dedicated to supporting medium-sized companies in the digital transformation of their core processes. Specializing in ERP, CRM, BI, and CLOUD solutions, NASCONCEPTION leverages Microsoft technologies and third-party add-ons that extend the standard functionalities.
As an established Microsoft partner, NASCONCEPTION’s expertise spans Microsoft Dynamics NAV, Dynamics 365 (especially Business Central and Sales), and Power BI. Microsoft Office 365 and Microsoft Azure round off the portfolio in order to ensure comprehensive digitalization for companies
The challenge
The Odyssey Hotel Group uses Business Central SaaS in several European countries such as the Netherlands, Germany, Finland, Greece, Spain, and Belgium. Each country works in its own Business Central live environment. In each of the individual countries, there are several hotels, which are registered as separate companies in Business Central.
Incoming invoices, payments and all finance administration are managed centrally from the headquarters in the Netherlands. To enable centralized management of the main tasks by the headquarters, Odyssey Hotel Group needed a solution that ensures a uniform process in all countries.
The solution
The experienced Microsoft Dynamics partner, NASCONCEPTION GmbH, supported the Odyssey Hotel Group in their endeavor to streamline and centralize the management of their AP processes. In addition to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Busines Central, they implemented two of Continia’s add-on solutions, Document Capture and OPplus, which help to automate and streamline accounts payable tasks.
The result
The implementation of Continia’s Document Capture and OPplus solutions has improved Odyssey Hotel Group’s financial operations. Document Capture guarantees centralized invoice management ensuring that invoices are assigned to the relevant companies, and all payments are processed efficiently and easily at the headquarters in the Netherlands.
In addition, Document Capture enables an automated process from data entry to posting and retrieval of archived documents. This saves time and also eliminates inefficient processes, freeing up more capacity for other tasks.
OPplus ensures that open postings are automatically reconciled and recurring postings are automatically assigned via account rules, enhancing operational efficiency. Additionally, OPplus simplifies the payment process, enabling the creation of payments and payment proposals in a single step - regardless of the file format and payment type.
"With Continia's OPplus and Document Capture, we were able to provide Odyssey Hotel Group with the finance solutions that made it possible to scale across multiple European locations in several live environments."
