Combining the company's 26-year commitment to finance managers in a broad range of industries with the reputation AXS-One has established in records compliance management, the new offering not only includes significant enhancements to the existing Enterprise Financial suite but also helps address the increasingly complex issues of compliance and corporate governance.

We look forward to another smooth upgrade of our AXS-One system."
Enterprise 9.0 - Compliance Edition gives CFOs and other financial managers a strategic and tactical view of corporate performance, providing the tools to build a Web-based scorecard with key performance indicators (KPIs) providing context for analysis.

Compliance and Governance: AXS-One Central delivers a
single repository for the secure management of any
electronic record, including financial books and records,
Office documents, e-mail and Instant Messages. This

Sarbanes-Oxley. It also eases the migration path to
implementing additional components from the AXS-One
Compliance Platform, including e-mail, IM and
electronic records management and legal discovery.

Budget Cycle Management (BCM), Expense Cycle Management

within the financial value chain.
