  • Sage Intacct 2026 Release 3: My Favorite Features That Will Make Finance Teams Superhuman

    Sage Intacct 2026 Release 3 is here.


    In this episode of Beyond the Numbers, Randy breaks down some of his favorite new features and what they could mean for finance teams looking to reduce repetitive work and rely less on disconnected spreadsheets.


    Topics include prepaid expense amortization, Smart Excel Reporting, AI-driven AP anomaly detection, navigation improvements, bulk posting, fixed asset updates, and Lending Management.


    One practical takeaway: you do not need to turn a new release into a major project. Start with one spreadsheet, reconciliation, or recurring process your team rebuilds every month and ask whether Sage Intacct can now handle more of that work.


    Watch the full episode for Randy’s take on the Sage Intacct 2026 Release 3 features finance teams should be paying attention to.

  • The Tax Checkup That Prevents the Same Surprise Each Year

    Tax season should not feel like a financial ambush.


    In this episode of Beyond the Numbers, Randy Kardas, CPA, and Chris explain why most tax surprises are really timing problems, not tax problems. They discuss why filing season is about reporting what already happened, while real tax planning happens throughout the year.


    From withholding and estimated payments to recordkeeping, investment basis, and multi-state filing issues, this episode breaks down the habits and checkpoints that help turn reactive tax prep into proactive planning.


    If you’ve ever said, “I wish I had known this earlier,” this conversation will help you make sure next year feels more intentional, predictable, and under control.

  • Why High-Producing Surgeons/Physicians Still Feel Underpaid

    High-producing surgeons can still feel underpaid — even when the practice is performing well.


    The disconnect is rarely about effort. It’s about the hidden economics of shared costs and the overhead drivers behind them.


    In this episode of Beyond the Numbers, Randy Kardas, CPA, explains why allocation models built for smaller, simpler practices often fail as complexity grows. When shared services, PA utilization, billing workload, and facility demand aren’t aligned with actual activity, physician P&Ls begin telling a distorted story.


    Inside this discussion:

    • Why compensation debates are usually cost allocation debates

    • How different drivers (wRVUs vs. time/cases) change profitability signals

    • The operational load high-volume surgeons carry that doesn’t show up clearly in reports

    • Why leadership time spent defending models is an expensive hidden cost

    • How economic clarity restores trust and accelerates growth decisions


    If your meetings feel more like fairness negotiations than strategy sessions, this episode will resonate.

  • What Happens When Your EMR Talks to Your ERP

    Your EMR sees operational truth in real time. Your financial statements often see a compressed version of it.


    In this episode, Randy Kardas explains why orthopedic groups get stuck debating numbers instead of making decisions and what changes when EMR data, including encounters, payments, adjustments, and patient counts, flows into structured reporting using Excel and Sage Intacct.


    Topics include revenue per physician tied to encounters, margin by service line grounded in procedure mix and payer impact, and staffing utilization aligned with volume patterns.


    This isn’t a software demo. It’s a leadership clarity conversation.

  • Physician P&L Trust Crisis: Why It Happens and How To Fix It

    When the physician P&L hits the screen and the room gets tense, you do not have a spreadsheet problem.


    You have a trust problem.


    In this episode of Beyond the Numbers, Randy Kardas walks through why physician-level reporting often creates conflict inside orthopedic groups and what leaders can do to fix it in a practical, real-world way.


    You will hear:

    • Why blunt allocation methods distort performance
    • How misaligned overhead logic erodes trust over time
    • A simple meeting reset framework
    • A five-step playbook leaders can actually execute
    • What consistent physician reporting should look like


    This is not about chasing perfect data. It is about building reporting that is defensible, explainable, and aligned with operational reality.


    If your P&L conversations are slowing down decisions instead of supporting them, this episode is worth your time.
