Town plans MRI conversion to replace QuickBooks and streamline payroll, pending personnel policy
Summary
Greenland staff reported that QuickBooks will go out of service in May 2025 and the town aims to convert to an MRI system by year‑end to consolidate payroll, benefits and retirement calculations; conversion depends on finalizing a personnel policy and consultant quotes.
Town staff told the Board of Selectmen that QuickBooks — the town’s current payroll/finance system — will go out of service in May 2025 and that a conversion to MRI is underway.
The town administrator said MRI implementation is contingent on a personnel policy being in place; staff expect the vendor to hit current milestones and aim to have MRI operational by year‑end. The administrator said the MRI rollout is intended to automate pay, overtime, benefits, retirement and reporting functions and to reduce manual reconciliation work. The town has budgeted a placeholder for conversion/consultant costs (the earlier procurement/quote for MRI services in 2024 was referenced at approximately $65,000 for 2024 activities) and will return to the board with final contract figures and a combined wage‑and‑benefits worksheet.
Selectmen voiced support for the conversion as a tool to reduce payroll errors and administrative burden and asked for a timeline and final costs before the town commits funds for 2025.
