Overall Satisfaction with Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT

We use Blackbaud Financial Edge for Account Payables, Cash Receipts, General Ledger, and Fixed Assets. The integration between Raise's Edge and Financial Edge have dramatically reduced duplication of work. Also the import function within Cash Receipts increases efficiencies by decreasing duplication of data entry.
  • Customization of Reports. We can create reports that crosses fiscal years and report on account codes
  • Integration with Raiser's Edge. We integrated with RE about 3 year ago. Prior to that we had data entry on the RE side and we were duplicating it on the FE side
  • Fixed Assets. The ability to adjust acquisition cost is helpful
  • Reporting. Tough to find reports. The sort for "last run date" doesn't work
  • Queries. We use a lot of queries. There is no queries in NXT
  • No drop down on the bank account on the cash receipts. Given we have several bank accounts a drop down would be useful
  • Not having the Deposit Number Assigned that is problematic. We use database for all cash receipts
  • Record accuracy. The integration with RE has reduced human errors
  • The removal of the ability to export directly in to Excel has slowed down the process
  • When you do indirectly export a file it coming over as 97-03 excel..... Really its 2023. exporting it to .xlsx would speed things up
It hasn't on the FE side
We have done a lot to increase visibility into our organization in the past 6 years, but NXT isn't the driving factor. We are improving our internal processes to increase visibility

When review cash receipts it is nice to see the deposit import ID in a table format. As previously mentioned not having the deposit numbers being assigned that is a problem
