Overview of the Sage 200 modules
Sage 200 Commercials
In addition to the Financials module, Sage 200 Commercials includes sales order processing, purchase order processing, stock control and price book. Integrating your accounting and trading modules means they can easily automate the delivery of customer orders with effective stock management, so that you have the complete control required to manage the supply chain.
Sage 200 Project Accounting
Sage 200 Project Accounting is a highly configurable and flexible costing application. It is ideally suited to businesses that run projects or services and can be adjusted to suit the needs of each industry type, whether that be companies requiring a simple or a detailed costing and analysis structures. It will provide you with indepth analysis and reporting features, ensuring that projects remain on track and profit levels are maintained.
Sage 200 Web Time & Expenses (WTE)
The Sage 200 Web Time & Expenses (WTE) module allows Sage 200 Project Accounting users to enter and track their timesheet and expense claims remotely using a web browser. The system can be configured in a number of ways, for example supporting users who enter their timesheets and expenses online (using an internet connection) or through a company intranet. One of the additional benefits of the Sage200 WTE module is that the user does not require Sage 200 to be installed on their PC to allow the entry of timesheets and expenses.
Sage 200 Manufacturing
Manufacturing is one of largest revenue generating sectors in the British economy, employing over 3.5 million people. Over 80,000 Sage UK customers are currently involved in activities which could be assisted by Sage 200 Manufacturing. Many companies are not primarily manufacturers but could use elements of Sage 200 Manufacturing to support assembly, repackaging of bulk items, resource planning, scheduling work and materials.
The Sage 200 Suite is perfectly placed to provide an integrated system that controls the whole manufacturing process, from planning materials to monitoring realtime works orders. Sage 200 Manufacturing gives companies greater control over their manufacturing processes through effective scheduling of work, close tracking of resource utilisation and improved business analysis.
Sage 200 Bill of Materials (BOM)
Designed for businesses undertaking light assembly who do not have the requirements of the full feature-rich Manufacturing module, Sage 200 BOM, follows the bill of materials process from beginning to end. It breaks down the manufacturing operation into easy to access areas, including materials, labour, machines, operations and reporting.
Sage 200 Wholesale and Retail
Designed to enhance the Sage 200 Commercials module with retail, wholesale and trade counter functionality, Sage 200 Wholesale and Retail is invaluable for any business that operates within these environments. It offers a complete stores, retail and merchandising management system that enhances backoffice control and point of sales effectiveness.
This module offers support for traceable items with batch and serial numbered items and improvements to warehouse to store stock transfers. In addition, Wholesale and Retail integrates with Sage POS, so that changes in stock file, prices and promotions need be applied only in one system. This saves time and increases accuracy by eliminating duplication of data entry and amendments. However this module can also be used without tills, which makes it ideal for companies requiring extra stock and order functionality.
Sage Point of sale (POS)
Sage POS is an electronic point of sale (EPoS) system suitable for any business that needs to conduct quick, accurate and secure transactions with its customers. Sage POS software is specifically designed for businesses operating within a retail environment and handling customer-present transactions. Sage POS software runs on the till and can be customised to reflect the unique processes of the business, adopting the terminology and the look-and-feel required, no matter how many bar codes and product variations.
Sage 200 Construction
Sage 200 Construction provides business wide efficiency for companies operating in the construction sector. From helping to keep within contract budgets, to complying with complex and ever changing HMRC legislation, to reducing costs and managing cash flow, Sage 200 Construction is ideally suited to businesses with more complex contracting requirements. All processes are supported – from receiving the initial enquiry to the final accounting, leaving your customers free to focus on building a profitable business.
