Plains Midstream Canada Selects AX4energy Joint Venture Accounting Module from mcaConnect
Denver, Colorado – January 26, 2015 – mcaConnect LLC (mcaConnect) announced today
that Plains Midstream Canada (PMC), an indirect subsidiary of Plains All American Pipeline L.P.

Dynamics AX, developed by mcaConnect.
Based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, with assets across North America, PMC focuses on
midstream activities – the wide range of facilities and services needed to connect oil and gas
producers with refiners, petroleum dealers and other customers. PMC needed an effective,
industry-specific Joint Venture Accounting solution for its crude oil and liquefied petroleum
gases (LPG) marketing, storage, terminaling, and transportation operations.
The company is upgrading to Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 and sought a solution that could
work in concert with this Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform. After a detailed review
of available solutions PMC chose the AX4energy Joint Venture Accounting Solution from
mcaConnect to meet its business needs.
The AX4Energy Joint Venture Accounting Module makes it simple and easy for energy
companies to leverage the powerful technology of Microsoft Dynamics AX for Joint Venture
Accounting business transactions. The solution handles Joint Interest Billing, Division of
Interest, Overhead Management and Authorization for Expenditure and more.

gives us the functionality we need, allowing us to meet our complex business transaction
requirements, while ensuring our company is able to utilize the enterprise power of Microsoft
