Meet the new face of Sage ACCPAC ERP, Sage 300 ERP

Sage Software is undergoing re-branding as it approaches the 31^st year of providing market leading business solutions provider to small and medium businesses across various geographies.

In 2012 the names of many of our Sage products accounting and ERP lines, including those designed for nonprofits and the construction industry, are changing. These products will be identified with a numbering approach where higher numbers denote increasing levels of product capability or sophistication. Our product numbering sets include Sage One, Sage 50, Sage 100, Sage 300, and Sage 500. Thus our good old friend Sage ACCPAC ERP gets a new makeover and a new name, Sage 300 ERP.

Sage 300 ERP is now currently in version 6.0 and the editions 100,200 and 500 will be called Standard, Advance and Premium respectively. ACCPAC is just getting a new name, rest it is still as efficient, robust, user friendly and cost effective as ever.

Greytrix's first step towards Hospitality industry

Here is the story about how Mumbai’s Greytrix went the extra mile, in a seemingly simple set up and gave Goa’s Alila Hotels the right fit.

Alila was in search of an ERP application coming from a well-reputed international vendor and one which could integrate seamlessly with the existing front-end property management software and help us maintain inventory, payables, and receivables as well as send automatic reports in desired formats to our head office.

The new ERP has enabled Alila to control their inventory, collection as well as given them performance indicators on a real-time basis. At any time, on click of a button, the client has access to MIS reporting, inventory position to avoid stock outs and overstocking, generate outstanding receivable aging for collection, as well as customer statements. The new ERP gives the hotel an easy way to integrate data coming from various departments and come up with a unified report that can be sent to its headquarters in Singapore.

Clearing the Deposit one by one in Bank Reco even though we have entered multiple entries in one batch of AR Receipt.

In Sage Accpac 6.0-500 it is not possible to clear the individual entries in Bank Reco.

Consider a case where you have entered 5 receipt entries in one batch then in such cases we have to clear the entire amount at once in Bank Reco. Accpac does not allow clearing of individual receipt one by one in Bank Reco. screen but after the release of Product Update 1 for Accpac 6.0 they have recovered from this bug and provided a way to clear the entries individually.

                                                                             

Following is the process for the same.

Process:

1.       Go to the Bank Reconcile Statement Screen.

            

2.       In the above Screen shot I have highlighted one entry of a deposit of amount 2522.66. The entry contains two AR receipts one of amount 2171.08 and other of amount 351.58. By default the status of the entry is outstanding as shown below.

3.       As this amount consists of two different amounts, we need to clear only one amount out of two. Thus here you need to change the status ‘Outstanding’ to ‘Reconcile by deposit detail’ as shown in the following two figures.

Own below

4.       After changing the status of the line click on the Detail button which lying at the bottom of the screen as shown below.

          

5.       After clicking on the detail button the following screen will open.

6.       As shown above the highlighted area contains the total amount which consists of two entries which are reflecting in the grid below.

7.       Now consider a case where we want to clear only the first entry. Thus in this case we will enter only the amount that we want to clear in the highlighted area as shown below.

8.       In the below figure you will notice that the cleared amount at the top has been change to 2171.08 and then we have change the status of that individual entry from outstanding to Cleared.

9.       After changing the status click on the save button and close the screen.

10.   After closing the screen, you will get the following display which will show you a difference of 351.58 which is yet to be cleared. And which you can clear later according to your requirements.

11.   In this way you can clear the individual receipt entries in the bank Reco even though you have entered multiple entries in single batch in AR Receipt Batch.
