The scheme was introduced as part of the EC VAT system to provide uniformity for all EC member states.<br />

<h3>To create a VAT Adjustments nominal code<a href="" name="section2"></a></h3><ol><li>Open the Company module, from the Links pane click Nominal Ledger then click Record. Sage Accounts v11.xx and below - Open the Nominal Ledger module then click Record.<br />
The Nominal Record window appears.<br />
</li>
<li> Complete the Nominal Record as follows:<br />
</li>
</ol><ul><li>In the N/C box, enter the required nominal code, for example, 4999. </li>
</ul><ul><li>In the Name box, enter a name for the nominal code, for example, VAT Adjustments<b>.</b> <b>Note:</b> If you are not using the Sage default nominal structure, then you may need to use a different nominal code.<br />
</li>
</ul><ol start="3"><li>To save the new nominal code, click Save. <b>Tip: </b>If required, to exit without saving, click Discard then click Close. <br />
The nominal code is saved and the Nominal Record clears.<br />
</li>
<li>To close the Nominal Record and return to the Nominal Ledger window, click Close.</li>
</ol>You have now created a new VAT Adjustments nominal code. You should now change your tax codes to work with TOMS, for further information about this, please refer to the following section.<br />
<br />
<h3>To set up the new tax codes<a href="" name="section3"></a></h3><b>Note:</b> If you have already used T3, T6 or T10 for other purposes, please substitute with your own tax codes.<br />
<ol><li>Open the Settings menu, choose Configuration, then from the Configuration Editor window, click the Tax Codes tab. Sage Line 50 v9.xx and below - Open the Settings menu then choose Tax Codes.<br />
The Tax Codes window appears.<br />
</li>
</ol><ol start="2"><li>From the Tax Codes list, select the T3 Tax Code then click Edit. The Edit Tax Code window appears.<br />
</li>
<li>In the Rate box enter 0.00, select the Include in VAT return check box then click OK. The Tax Codes window appears.<br />
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for tax codes T6 and T10.<br />
</li>
<li>To close the Tax Codes window and return to the program desktop, click Apply then click Close. Sage Line 50 v9.xx and below - To close the Tax Codes window and return to the program desktop, click Close. <br />
</li>
</ol>You have now created your new tax codes and Sage Accounts is now ready to calculate VAT using the TOMS.<br />
<br />
<h3>Tax codes to use when using the TOMS<a href="" name="section4"></a></h3>Use the following tax codes when you enter any income and expenditure transactions under the TOMS: <br />
<ul><li>Use T0 for zero rated items.</li>
</ul><ul><li>Use T1 for standard rated items not associated with Margin Scheme Supplies.</li>
</ul><ul><li>Use T2 for exempt items.</li>
</ul><ul><li><b>Use T3 for standard-rated SALES ONLY associated with Margin Scheme Supplies.</b></li>
</ul><ul><li>Use T4 for EC Sales.</li>
</ul><ul><li>Use T5 for reduced rate items not associated with Margin Scheme Supplies.</li>
</ul><ul><li><b>Use T6 for the Annual year end adjustment.</b></li>
</ul><ul><li>Use T7 for zero rated purchases from suppliers in the EC. Please note that this article can only be used when all of your supplies are liable for VAT at the same rate. This tax code should only be used for zero rated supplies that are not included in the TOMS.</li>
</ul><ul><li>Use T8 for standard rated purchases from suppliers in the EC that are not associated with Margin Scheme Supplies.</li>
</ul><ul><li>Use T9 for items which are not to be included in the VAT Return.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Use T10 for standard rated purchases, which are classed under Margin Scheme Supplies. If you have received an invoice, which includes VAT, enter the gross amount in the Net column and leave the VAT box as zero.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Use T22 for the sale of services to customers in the EC. <br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Use T23 for the purchase of zero rated or exempt services from suppliers in the EC.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Use T24 for the purchase of standard rated services from suppliers in the EC. <br />
</li>
</ul>For example, when entering income transactions relating to the scheme such as sales invoices for standard rated sales, enter the gross value of the invoice in the net column with a tax code of T3 and zero in the VAT column. The amount of VAT cannot be calculated at this stage, so it is entered as zero. <br />
When entering expenditure transactions relating to the scheme such as purchase invoices for standard rated purchases, enter the gross value of the invoice in the net column with the tax code of T10 and zero in the VAT column.<br />
<br />
<h3>To use TOMS for the first time<a href="" name="section5"></a></h3>If you have just registered for VAT or have just started to make margin scheme supplies, you must work out a provisional margin percentage to use during your first financial year. This may be based on any of the following: <br />
<ul><li>Previous trading figures</li>
<li>Projected costings and margins</li>
<li>Actual quarterly figures during the first year</li>
</ul>Whatever method you choose, the Simplified End-Of-Year annual adjustment will correct any underpayment or overpayment of VAT arising during the first year. <br />
The provisional adjustment will be on a quarterly or monthly basis, depending on the periods used for your VAT Returns. <br />
Before making any adjustment you must print out your Sage VAT Return and label it 'Before Adjustment'. After making your adjustment you must print out your Sage Accounts VAT Return and label it 'After Adjustment'.<br />
<br />
<h3>Simplified End-Of-Year Calculation Method (Annual Adjustment)<a href="" name="section6"></a></h3>You should use this method to calculate the percentage used in the Simplified Provisional Margin Calculation Method in subsequent financial years. The Simplified Provisional Margin Calculation Method is then used to calculate provisional VAT on the monthly or quarterly VAT Returns in subsequent financial years. However as the monthly or quarterly VAT Returns during the year are only calculated on a provisional basis, a year end VAT adjustment is required, which is payable or deductible on the next VAT Return immediately following the financial year end. For this annual adjustment the Simplified End-Of-Year Calculation Method is used. <br />
Part of the procedure outlined below is based on the standard VAT Returns produced within Sage Accounts for the previous financial year.<br />
<br />
If you did not produce your previous VAT Returns in Sage Accounts then please disregard step 1 and obtain the relevant figures for step 2 from your previous system. <br />
<ol><li>To assist with the year end calculations you need to obtain copies of the VAT Returns produced for the whole of the previous year. These consist of the following:<br />
<br />
a) The VAT Returns before any TOMS adjustments have been made. These should be labelled 'Before Adjustments'.<br />
<br />
b) The VAT Returns after any TOMS adjustments have been made. These should be labelled 'After Adjustments'. For example, if you previously produced monthly VAT Returns you should have 24 reports, if you produced quarterly VAT Returns then you should have 8 reports.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Using the VAT Returns before any TOMS adjustments have been made, those from step 1a, obtain the following values and apply them to Section 10 of VAT Notice 709/5.<br />
<br />
a) Total the VAT inclusive selling price of your margin scheme sales supplied during the financial year. That is the total value of sales under tax code T3.<br />
<br />
From each of the VAT Returns add together the values under tax code T3 on box 6<br />
<br />
b) The total of the VAT inclusive purchase prices of the designated travel services included in the total at (a). That is the total value of purchases under tax code T10.<br />
<br />
From each of the VAT Returns add together the values under tax code T10 on box 7<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Using the VAT Returns after any adjustments, those from step 1b, calculate the provisional output (Sales) VAT that has been accounted for during that financial year. Add together the VAT elements under tax code T3 on box 1 from each of the VAT Returns. This value is then also applied to Section 10 of VAT Notice 709/5.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>From the calculations in Section 10 the yearly VAT adjustment which is payable or deductible on the next VAT Return in your new financial year is worked out. If the amount is positive this is the amount of VAT payable. If the amount is negative then this is the amount of VAT deductible.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>The VAT payable or deductible calculated above should be included on the first VAT Return of the new financial year. This is achieved by posting two transactions to the Customer VAT House Account, using the VAT Adjustments nominal code 4999 and dating the transaction within the current VAT period.</li>
</ol>Now you have calculated the amount of VAT that has to be adjusted for the previous financial year, to find out how to enter the amount payable or deductible, please refer to the following sections.<br />
<br />
<h3>To enter the year end adjustment when the VAT amount due is payable<a href="" name="section7"></a></h3>To enter the amount of VAT payable you must: <br />

<h3>Simplified Provisional Margin Calculation for the following financial year<a href="" name="section9"></a></h3>When the Simplified End-of-Year Calculation Method has been used for the previous financial year then this percentage method can be used to provisionally adjust the VAT during the subsequent years. After this provisional method has been used for the next financial year, the simplified end of year method must still be used at the next year end to calculate any final adjustments. <br />
<h4> </h4><h4>To calculate the provisional amount of VAT to be adjusted during the next years VAT periods </h4>Produce a Sage VAT Return for the period you are reconciling and label the printout 'Before Adjustments'. This print out will be used in the Simplified End-of-Year Calculation Method to establish any final adjustments to be made at the year end.<br />
<br />
<ol><li>Figures obtained in the previous Simplified End-of-Year Calculation Method can be applied to Section 11 of VAT Notice 709/5 to calculate the percentage adjustment value.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Use the Sage VAT Return produced in step 1 above to calculate the 'Total VAT-inclusive selling price of your margin scheme sales supplied during the financial year'. That is, the total value of sales used under Tax Code T3 on Box 6. This value is then also applied to Section 11 of VAT Notice 709/5 to give the provisional TOMS adjustment to be accounted for the prescribed accounting period.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>To adjust the amount of VAT, post a sales invoice to the VAT House Account using nominal code 4999 with the net amount of the VAT adjustment, tax code T3 and zero in the Net column. Then enter a sales credit onto the VAT House Account using the nominal code 4999 with a VAT amount of zero, tax code T3 and VAT amount of the VAT adjustment. Allocate the credit note against the invoice through the Customer Receipts option within the Bank module.</li>

Now that the amount of VAT has been provisionally adjusted for the period you should take a backup of your data and label it 'After Year End VAT Adjustment'. Reproduce the Sage VAT Return for the period you are reconciling and label the print out 'After Adjustments'. This print out will be used when calculating the Simplified End-of-Year Annual Adjustment.

I now have a beta running and would like to invite anyone who needs this functionality to please get in touch. This will extract <STRONG>all</STRONG> Sage 50 data on a schedule you determine.

This was a supposed to improve performance for those customers running large volumes of data through Sage 50 (yes I know who you are…..I’ve seen those 7000 customers on your sales ledger <IMG class=wp-smiley alt=;) src="/iconwink.gif"> ) but a very recent announcement from Sage has stated that development has stopped.</P><br /><P>Reasons aren’t entirely clear, my thinking was that if it didnt offer the ability to talk the database across the WAN (i.e. Internet) as well as the LAN then its not *that* much of a forward leap. My experience is that customers move from Sage 50 not due to data volumes but for functionality, things like multi-location stock.</P><br /><P>Of course this isn’t the first time they’ve done a U-turn, last year the very poor and buggy Sage Live was almost drowned at birth. The SaaS offering never really got started before being shelved and allowing all the SaaS boys to further strengthen their offerings and increase market share.</P><div class="blogger-post-footer">sage line 50 tutorial</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6827735343788158759.post-78405353367470892782011-02-15T07:28:00.000-08:002011-02-15T07:28:00.334-08:00Sage 50 or Sage 200 data online?<P>I’ve been working on a couple of projects to extract data via scheduled jobs to place on remote servers of late. It was something I was mulling over as the one big sticking point with the iPhone connect for Sage 50 application is for a user being able to configure their firewall to allow external access. My thinking is to charge a nominal monthly fee (and no upfront cost) for a tool which extracts your Sage 50 or Sage 200 (in an extremely efficient manner!), uploads it to a secure site where you will able to view/filter and report on your Sage data.</P><br /><P>What I don’t know is how much do you, the great Sage using population, want the ability to do this? It means not only can you easily deploy your information company wide but also to home workers and it would tie up nicely with the iphone app. Now phase 1 would be read-only but later phases would look at altering the online data and via some other tool allowing those changes to be written back to your data.</P><br /><P>If it is something even of passing interest then please email here.</P><div class="blogger-post-footer">sage line 50 tutorial</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6827735343788158759.post-16922742673895288582011-02-15T06:11:00.000-08:002011-02-15T06:11:01.024-08:00Chasing Your Tail or Chasing Your Money?<P>Getting paid on time is a constant frustration for any business.

This got me thinking about a generic alerts system where a user can define some parameters and when a value or status changes have an automatic email or even SMS sent to one or more external recipients or to internal staff.</P><P>Now something like this does exist in the guise of BPM (Business Process Modelling) or workflow. These solutions are typically expensive and need alot of configuration. My thinking is that you have something that is simpler and user friendly but acheives the same end goal.

But as it prepares to launch this year, experts are wondering just how effective the Business Growth Fund (BGF) is really going to be.</P><P>The innovative new body has already promised to make more than £1.5 billion available for small to medium-sized companies in 2011. But despite the hype, commentators and industry are already divided about how well the equity system, backed by the high street banks, will work and what it can realistically achieve.</P><P><STRONG>What is the Business Growth Fund?</STRONG></P><P>So what exactly is it and how will it work? Why might it be so important for kick-starting expansion for businesses and the economy as a whole? And why are critics urging caution?</P><P>The idea of a bank-sponsored BGF was first raised last year, by then Chancellor, Alastair Darling, in response to the general downturn in lending. With net lending down six per cent in the last 12 months, he hoped making funds available in this way would stimulate future growth – and have a lasting, positive effect on the economy.</P><P>Darling proposed working with the major high street banks to establish an investment fund for small and medium-sized businesses to tap into. Signing up Lloyds, Santander and Clydesdale, Darling created a £200 million resource that aimed to reach £500 million of capital. Other banks were less keen to get involved – saying that civil servants’ preference for distributing monies to existing venture capital firms would not build capacity in the market.</P><P>Then in July, while coming under political pressure to increase business lending from the new Coalition Government, the major banks took on the project for themselves.</P><P><STRONG>What’s the thinking behind it?</STRONG></P><P>Explaining the thinking behind it Chancellor, George Osborne, and Business Secretary, Vince Cable explained: “This government has always insisted that banks need to increase lending to our essential small businesses, in order to support economic growth, while also restoring customer trust.”</P><P><STRONG>So, which banks have signed up?</STRONG></P><P>The new fund, backed by Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds, Royal Bank of Scotland, Santander and Standard Chartered, aims to invest in individual companies with a turnover of between £10 million and £100 million, in return for an equity stake of at least ten per cent.</P><P>Managed by an independent investment company based in London and a range of regional offices, banks will put £350 million into the pot over the next two years – spreading the rest of the total £1.5 billion contribution between now and 2020.</P><P>As Fund Chairman and Barclays Chief Executive, John Varley, explains: “As banks we have an obligation to help the UK economy return to growth. The private sector will play a key role in the recovery and it’s our job to help viable firms to be successful.”</P><P><STRONG>What can the fund achieve?</STRONG></P><P>But Angela Knight, chief executive of the British Bankers Association, says and her members are still cautious about how much the fund can achieve – and says its scope could be limited.</P><P>“The anticipation at the moment is it will do about 75 companies a year, a bit like where 3i (an international investment company) used to be when it was in this sector,” she explained. “That figure will also depend on what businesses want and we are hopeful that others will come in and commit to the fund.”</P><P>The BBC’s Business Editor, Robert Peston, agrees – urging a seasoned, measured view of what the BGF can hope to achieve.</P><P>“It is important not to get too carried away,” he says. “I calculate that it will be able to provide risk capital to around 250 middling companies over a number of years (based on the banks’ assertion that they’ll provide £1.5 billion of equity finance in individual lumps of between £2m and £10m).</P><P>“That will be seen as a useful contribution to the growth potential of a segment of the economy that has typically found it hard to raise capital. But it won’t be transformative.”</P><P>It may not be the cure-all solution that the Coalition originally hoped for but with such a large amount to invest, the BGF’s contribution will at the very least represent step in the right direction.</P><P><STRONG>Steve Porter, Accountants Division</STRONG></P><IMG alt=Share/Bookmark src="/sharesave17116.png" width=171 height=16><br /><p><a href="http://www.sage.co.uk/blog/index.php/2011/02/the-business-growth-fund-plugging-the-lending-gap/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">View the original article here</a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">sage line 50 tutorial</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6827735343788158759.post-32780430097544517502011-01-21T05:27:00.000-08:002011-01-21T05:27:00.141-08:00Announcing Sage One<IMG title="Sage One" alt="Sage One" src="/5366381703207ca83906m.jpg" width=240 height=69> Sage One<br /><P></P><br /><P>We don’t normally allow product announcements on our blog, but we’ve just introduced an entirely new service that we think is worth a shameless plug!</P><br /><P>Today we’re launching Sage One, our new SAAS offering for small business owners and their accountants.</P><br /><P><STRONG>Customers at its heart</STRONG></P><br /><P>Sage One has been developed with customers at its heart.

No matter what your experience we hope you’ll find something that gets you thinking. And if it does, why not have your say and tell others what you think?</P><br /><P></P><br /><P>We all know that the HR function has transformed over the past decade. It is no longer administrative but specialist and strategic. However this does mean that HR are relying on line managers to ensure employees are motivated, productive, competent and fully engaged with corporate goals. Therefore it is vital that these two functions understand each other and work together but we know this can be challenging!</P><br /><P>So how can HR build effective relationships with line managers to ensure they are working in partnership?</P><br /><P><STRONG>Here are my top 10 tips </STRONG></P><br /><P>1. Coaching and development</P><br /><P>Line managers need both skills and development to execute HR responsibilities. Make sure the necessary coaching and development is in place. This will give them confidence and mean they will be happier with the extra responsibilities.</P><br /><P>2. Be honest</P><br /><P>If you are introducing a new strategy or policy and it will involve a lot of line managers’ time and resources, be honest with them and ask them how they feel about it. Involving them like this will automatically make them more engaged and cooperative.</P><br /><P>3. Timing of communications</P><br /><P>When you are trying to communicate with any audience, timing is vital. Don’t try to communicate with your line managers during the busiest time for the business because it is unlikely you will be heard. Pick your moments to communicate carefully.</P><br /><P>4. Listen and respect</P><br /><P>It is likely that they will have different views and attitudes to certain things but this does not mean that they are less important. In order to build an effective relationship you need to listen and respect their views and take on board what they say.</P><br /><P>5. Equip them with the right tools</P><br /><P>If you are relying on line managers to manage many of the day-to-day duties of people management ensure that you give them the tools and equipment to make this as easy as possible.

Don’t ignore calls or letters from the people you owe money to (your creditors).</P>Contact them to explain why you’re having problems. The sooner you do this, the more options you’ll have for solving your financial problems.</P>There are many organisations which offer free and independent money advice such as Citizens Advice, Shelter, National Debtline, and the Consumer Credit Counselling Service. Their debt advisers can assess your situation and work out the best course of action for you. For details of organisations which can help, go to the bottom of this page.</P>There are some debts you need to pay first before others, because the consequences of not paying them can be much more serious. For example, mortgage or rent debts are a priority as if you don’t pay these you could lose your home. Debt advisers can help you plan your budget and pay your priority debts first.</P>Work out how much money you’ve got coming in and going out of your household on essential expenses like food and bills. Then work how much you’ve got left over to pay your creditors. If you can’t afford to pay back all the money you owe, work out how much you can afford and offer to pay this. A debt adviser can help you do this.</P>Are you getting all the money you’re entitled to?</P>There may be benefits or tax credits you can get such as Pension Credit or Disability Living Allowance which you haven’t claimed. Working Tax Credit is an in-work benefit which is not just available to people with children. You might be able to get it if you work enough hours and are disabled or your income is low enough, even if you don’t have children. You may be able to get Council Tax Benefit or Housing Benefit to help you pay your council tax and rent. You don’t necessarily have to be out of work to get these benefits. You may be able to get help with your health costs such as prescription charges and dental costs. You may be able to claim help with education costs such as school meals and clothing.</P>You may be able to get a grant to help you pay for things like fitting home insulation and improving energy efficiency. This can help cut down the fuel bills.</P>Your gas and electricity supplier may be able to help you if you have fuel debts.</P>To find out if you can get help, visit the British Gas Energy Trust website at: <IMG class="donotprint inline" title="The following link will open in a new window" alt="(New window) " src="/openinnewwin.gif" width=17 height=11>www.britishgasenergytrust.org.uk or the EDF Energy Trust website at: <IMG class="donotprint inline" title="The following link will open in a new window" alt="(New window) " src="/openinnewwin.gif" width=17 height=11>www.edfenergytrust.org.uk.</P>There are also some charities which give grants to people to help pay their bills or buy essential items. You can find a list of these charities on the Turn 2 Us website at: <IMG class="donotprint inline" title="The following link will open in a new window" alt="(New window) " src="/openinnewwin.gif" width=17 height=11>www.turn2us.org.uk.</P>An adviser can help you maximise your income. For details of organisations which can help, go to the bottom of this page.</P>Look carefully at your spending and see if there is anything you are able to cut down on. For example, you could shop around for a cheaper gas or electricity provider, or look at cheaper mortgage or insurance providers.</P>You can find more information about changing your gas and electricity suppliers from the website of the consumer watchdog, Consumer Focus at: <IMG class="donotprint inline" title="The following link will open in a new window" alt="(New window) " src="/openinnewwin.gif" width=17 height=11>www.consumerfocus.org.uk.</P>To find out more about how to save money on financial products such as mortgages and insurance, go to the website of financial watchdog the Financial Services Authority at: <IMG class="donotprint inline" title="The following link will open in a new window" alt="(New window) " src="/openinnewwin.gif" width=17 height=11>www.moneymadeclear.fsa.gov.uk.</P>You may end up paying back a lot more than you borrowed and at very high interest rates. You may not be able to afford the repayments and the loan may be secured against your home which you could then lose.</P>Always attend the court hearings yourself. Court proceedings do not mean that you will automatically lose your home. The court process acts as a final check to make sure repossession is the last resort. Some courts have advice desks which can provide last minute assistance.</P>Selling your home and renting it back might seem like a quick fix to your debt problems. But, many of these schemes offer very little security. You could end up paying very high rent or even being evicted. These schemes are also not regulated so you will not have access to the same protections as a mortgage holder.</P>If you are struggling with mortgage repayments you may be tempted to send the keys to your lender or abandon your property. Don’t do this without advice. You could still be responsible for the debt on the property and may be pursued for it years later.</P>Tags: consumer credit counselling, Credit Crunch, debt problems, independent money, money advice, pension credit, priority debts, tax credits, uk index, working tax credit</P><br /><p><a href="http://www.sageexperts.net/how-to-survive-credit-crunch-in-england/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">View the original article here</a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">sage line 50 tutorial</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6827735343788158759.post-85066898615355342142011-01-19T10:10:00.000-08:002011-01-19T10:10:00.110-08:00Sage Peachtree 2011 Helps Small Businesses Stay Competitive <P>Sage North America announced today the availability of the Sage Peachtree 2011 product line, part of the broad portfolio of Sage business management solutions that service end-to-end business needs. A longtime favorite of small businesses and accountants, Sage Peachtree is easier to use than ever, providing companies with instant access to key information that makes billing customers, reacting to issues and controlling profitability easier than ever for small businesses, helping them to stay competitive in a rapidly changing economy.</P><P>“At a time when most small businesses need to do more with less, Sage Peachtree 2011 will help them to leverage efficiencies and answer the three most important questions of their day: are business activities on track, on schedule, and within budget,” said Connie Certusi, general manager, small business accounting solutions, Sage North America. “Sage Peachtree 2011 makes it easier for small businesses to quickly get the information they need so they can focus on what they do best: running their businesses.”</P><P><STRONG>treamline Service Billing:</STRONG> Businesses that provide services can quickly invoice customers for any unbilled time and expenses; unbilled items can be filtered by date, customer or job. The outstanding time and expenses are then transferred directly to an invoice, increasing billing efficiency.</P><P><STRONG>Improve decision making with the new Inventory and Services Management Center:</STRONG> A customized dashboard helps users process large quantities of information about a single inventory item or a service at a glance. It enables quick research, comparisons, and decision making, and helps small businesses easily see the impact of a service—usage, revenue, and more. The dashboard cuts time needed to track details on inventory for planning purchases, freeing that time for other activities.</P><P><STRONG>Instantly identify Job Status:</STRONG>& Customizable job status indicators provide visual red/yellow/green “stoplights” for easy identification of what’s on or off track, and are completely customizable to suit the needs of individual businesses. Small businesses can easily delete, rename, or change the color-coded stoplight button attached to each status, with virtually unlimited status types, for easy monitoring.</P><P>Click here for Complete Release</P>Tags: business accounting solutions, business management solutions, sage business, Sage Peachtree, Sage Peachtree 2011, service billing, services management, small business accounting, small businesses, that provide services</P><br /><p><a href="http://www.sageexperts.net/sage-peachtree-2011-helps-small-businesses-stay-competitive/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">View the original article here</a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">sage line 50 tutorial</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6827735343788158759.post-71656019940018408142011-01-19T08:59:00.000-08:002011-01-19T08:59:00.360-08:00Sage To Partners: New Cloud Services Won’t Leave You Behind May 21st, 2010 in SalesLogix CRM | leave a response</P><P>Sage North America is expanding into cloud computing with an on-demand version of its SalesLogix CRM application suite and plans to offer cloud-based “connected services,” modeled on Sage Payment Solutions, that extend the vendor’s on-premise applications.</P><P>But the software company is taking pains to reassure channel partners that its cloud foray won’t cut resellers out of the picture.</P><P>“We will ensure that you play a role,” said Himanshu Palsule, executive vice president, in a keynote speech Tuesday at the company’s Insights partner conference in Denver. “You will not be disintermediated by connected services.

ERPX3 is particularly targeted at businesses in vertical markets and industries including discrete manufacturing, finance, process manufacturing, warehouse management, distribution, pharmaceutical, medical and mining.</P><P>This latest release is specifically designed for deployment and operation over the Internet. For customers this means reduced total cost of ownership (TCO) and improved speed and ease of deployment as they don’t need to invest in additional hardware or thin-client technology to roll the solution out. These are particularly high priorities for Australian and New Zealand businesses at present according to feedback from Sage’s extensive partner community of more than 30,000 resellers globally.</P><P>“A lot of ERP systems are coming to the end of their product life cycle at the moment and customers are assessing the upgrade options available to them,” said Mike Lorge, Managing Director, Sage Business Solutions, Australia and New Zealand.</P><P>“The typical challenges for upgrade and deployment are productivity loss when systems are down for cut-over or training occurs and ongoing management costs. We designed ERPX3 to address those challenges directly. It is quickly deployed, often alongside existing ERP solutions, and incorporates new graphics and an improved user interface that can be tweaked to reflect specific business and training needs, saving time and money.”</P><P>New features in Sage ERPX3 include:<BR>· Improved interface and user friendless: Businesses can design graphical processes to augment traditional menus and navigation panes. This aids in training and adoption as graphics are more familiar and reflect specific business needs and user preferences<BR>· Quick deployment across multiple branches/sites: Because ERPX3 is web-native, it can be deployed over the Internet allowing businesses to quickly scale access to connect new and remote branches to the database. For example, if a business has an office in Beijing and one in Sydney, employees from each office can log into the same system simultaneously, improving transparency and information access across the organisation.<BR>· Multi-jurisdiction and Multi-lingual: ERPX3 includes the latest updates to accounting and tax management legislation across multiple jurisdictions allowing automatic capture and conversion of data for international trade. Users can login in the language of choice including English, French, German, Spanish and Chinese.<BR>· Improved data visibility and Business Intelligence: ERPX3 includes an easy to use, configuarable user portal including customisable graphical Business Intelligence views with full drill-down to the underlying data. Any data can be exposed in this manner.</P>Tags: management costs, ongoing management, partner community, process manufacturing, product life cycle, productivity loss, Sage, sage business, Sage ERPX3, Sage Launches, stock management</P><br /><p><a href="http://www.sageexperts.net/sage-launches-erpx3-in-australia-and-new-zealand/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">View the original article here</a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">sage line 50 tutorial</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6827735343788158759.post-7569032040538154832011-01-18T23:13:00.000-08:002011-01-18T23:13:00.323-08:00Sage Software – A Guide to the Product Portfolio April 27th, 2010 in Mas 200, Mas 90, Sage Accpac, Sage Simply accounting | leave a response</P><P>A very interesting analysis and study provided by Manufacturing Software Advice about Sage</EM> products in the US</P><P>The guide gives a pictorial representation of Sage offerings along with the Advantages of various product offerings and suitability to various industry segments.</P><P>A good piece of information packaged well in a small article</P><P>Excerpts</P><BLOCKQUOTE readability="13"><P>By market share, SAP is the largest business applications software vendor.
