Praise for Accounting and Finance Policies and Procedures
"This comprehensive and practical tool enables accountants to produce documentation on policies and procedures in a quick and thorough manner. The URL download eliminates the tedious administrative setup work, and the detailed description within each section assists in the prevention of overlooking what we very often take for granted. This is not a how-to book; it is a tool that . . . will make your company documents look like you are part of a Fortune 500 company." —Leslie Kessler Brand, CPA, Corporate Controller, Porta Systems Corp.

This guide will enable those firms to hit the ground running and significantly accelerate their completion of a solid policies and procedures program." —Douglas Robinson, CFO, Verint Systems Inc.
