In 2019 City of Lowell, NC deployed Southern Software FMS as its Government ERP to centralize municipal accounting and serve as the system of record for the finance office. Southern Software FMS was placed at the finance office location where the City maintains all accounting journals and subsidiary ledgers, providing the primary transactional and reporting backbone for municipal financial operations.
Southern Software FMS is implemented with core municipal financial modules, including General Ledger, Accounts Payable, Payroll, Utility Billing, and Cash Receipts. The application is used to generate trial balances and subsidiary reports that support month end bank reconciliations, budget to actual comparisons, capital asset listings and transaction detail required for audit preparation.
Operational coverage spans the Cityund structure, including the General Fund, Capital Projects funds, Water and Sewer enterprise fund and related capital project and grant funds, while payroll and cash management processes run through the finance officenvironment. The City records show property tax collections are handled by Gaston County and investment activity includes the NC Cash Management Trust Government Portfolio, with Southern Software FMS serving as the municipal ledger platform alongside these external cash and tax processes.
Governance and audit workflow are tightly prescribed, with the Finance Officer designated as the person with suitable skills, knowledge, and experience to oversee the system outputs and the external Financial Statement Preparer responsible for government wide year end adjusting entries. Audit orchestration is structured around a preplanning conference, interim fieldwork prior to June 30, year end fieldwork beginning by mid August and an October draft deadline for Local Government Commission submission, with expectations for onsite auditor presence and delivery of requested schedules from Southern Software FMS to support those controls and compliance activities.
