Landmark announces unique link with Gatekeeper software

Landmark Systems has announced a unique new development in their KEY Accounts software by establishing a link with Farmade Management Systems’ Gatekeeper product – the only accounting package that can offer such integration.

Gatekeeper is Farmade’s flagship crop management system, so the link with KEY Accounts will mean that farmers, agricultural and rural companies can benefit from a reduction in duplication errors and achieve better accuracy in their accounting and crop recording requirements.

Specialising in the property and rural business sectors, Landmark Systems provides innovative software solutions predominantly in the management of property and accounts through its KEY range.

The KEY Accounts software is not only designed around the needs of an accountant, but is also a powerful management tool enabling the user to generate information such as cashflow reporting, budgeting and year on year analysis. Suited to the multi enterprise farming or rural business, integrating the KEY Accounts software with Gatekeeper means that data is entered into both systems from only one source. For example, information entered into Gatekeeper when a product had been delivered will be highlighted once an invoice is ready to be paid. The payment details added into KEY Accounts will then automatically be saved in Gatekeeper, saving time and making it an essential tool for companies that wish to diversify.

Managing Director of Landmark Systems, Nigel Parsons, commented:

“We previously provided a link with MultiCrop, which proved popular with many of our rural and agricultural customers and as a result more and more wanted the equivalent link with Gatekeeper highlighting the popularity that an integrated system has.”

Nigel continued:

“The development of the KEY Accounts and Gatekeeper link is totally unique, as no other accounts package can provide the integration. The link between the two programs means that the user will be able to avoid duplication of records and will save time and effort over the previous use of two unlinked programs.”

Liz Coy, who runs the accounts for Rookfield Farm in Sleaford, Lincolnshire, was the first to receive Landmark Systems’ KEY Accounts software with the Gatekeeper link. Liz commented:

“The Link between KEY Accounts and Gatekeeper is extremely beneficial to us as it saves time and negates copying errors with prices. The layout is also clearer and if you are using more than one stock centre it keeps the information separate providing a quicker link up between the software.”

Another big benefit for Liz was the ease in set up:

“As always there was plenty of support from Landmark Systems in helping us set up. They are still always on hand should we need to know about a part of the current system.”
