Once Is Enough

At Lucasys, we understand that your time is one of your most valuable resources. That’s why we’ve built our systems to ensure that the work you’ve done in prior periods is preserved—even as new data is added or processes are updated.

The Lucasys software is designed to seamlessly integrate new information, such as additional budget data or actuals for new months, without overwriting or losing prior period adjustments.
