In 2024, Are Media implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations as its ERP Financial solution, replacing Oracle PeopleSoft ERP. The initiative focused on centralizing core finance functions, with a primary operational scope on accounts payable across Australia and New Zealand to support two weekly pay cycles and daily invoice volumes of roughly 100 to 150 items.
The Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations deployment was configured to support Accounts Payable, invoice approval workflows, multi-currency payment handling, manual bank payment execution including EFT and BPAY, and bank reconciliation capabilities. Configuration emphasis included workflow routing for timely invoice approvals and controls around payment execution and supplier reconciliation as part of the ERP Financial stack.
Data migration and testing was explicit in the program, with AP staff responsible for validating that tasks executed in PeopleSoft functioned correctly in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations. Test coverage targeted invoice posting, approval routing, manual payment processing for domestic and foreign currency disbursements, and reconciliation processes, and systems referenced during the migration included PeopleSoft and Microsoft Dynamics.
Operational governance was adjusted to codify two weekly pay cycles, define role based AP responsibilities for Australian and New Zealand pay runs, and streamline supplier enquiry and discrepancy resolution into the new ERP workflow. AP personnel continued to own timely invoice push to approval, payment processing and reconciliations, and performed ERP acceptance testing to confirm parity of functional workflows in the new Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations ERP Financial environment.
