Knowledge Sync
Knowledge Sync is an impressive add-on module, which sends e-mail notifications to you and your specified personnel when something significant happens in your business. Solving problems before they start can satisfy your customers far more consistently. Integrated into critical modules, Knowledge Sync shifts your focus using early warning signals that announce critical events in your Sage 100 or Sage 200 SQL systems, including credit holds, inventory thresholds, priority client transactions, urgency levels and more.
Business Insights
Business Insights, which comes standard with any new Sage 100 or Sage 200 system, is the ideal solution for busy managers, executives and business owners who need quick access to key business information in an easy-to-read format. Designed to present easily accessible information in a high-level, graphical layout, Sage Software’s goal was to provide the data necessary to make well-informed, business-critical decisions to make your firm more competitive. The application is customizable and allows you to pick what information is the most important to your operation. With a multitude of insightful reports, extensive drill-down capabilities and an automatic data refreshing feature, Business Insights makes staying informed easy.
Crystal Reports
Crystal Reports is a powerful report writer that creates meaningful, real-time reports quickly and easily. Out-of-the-box reports are available along with the ability to modify them to suit your business needs. Wizards can walk you through the necessary steps to modify a report with ease. If you would like to create a report from scratch, more wizards (called Experts) guide you through the process from start to finish. Your reports can run at pre-determined times, even unattended. Using the open database connectivity (ODBC) driver, Crystal Reports has direct access to Sage 100 and Sage 200 SQL data. The Crystal Reports design engine is also fully integrated into Sage 100 and Sage 200 SQL form printing.
SAGE Intelligence
This version of SAGE Intelligence comes bundled with the Sage 100 and Sage 200 SQL General Ledger modules, and is a full-featured, graphical reporting tool. The ability to specify row and column formats independently maximizes the flexibility of report formats. After creating a report, you can print it, export it to an Excel worksheet, drill down to examine details or distribute it via e-mail. Combine the report formats with a custom-reporting tree that matches your company’s chart of accounts structure, and you can create customized reports that detail almost any aspect of your business. SAGE Intelligence also provides multi-company consolidation and robust security.
F9
This optional module uses Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) technology to deliver data from your Sage 100 and Sage 200 SQL General Ledger module to a spreadsheet document, such as Lotus 1-2-3 or Microsoft Excel. The data migration is easy due to an automatic link to your General Ledger using the hotlink feature in your spreadsheet, or hotlink cells in your spreadsheet that tie into any data item in General Ledger. This linkage provides instant, real-time financial information in your spreadsheet and saves time by eliminating the rekeying of data into your spreadsheet.
Custom Office
The Custom Office module provides a suite of tools (Visual Post Master, Customizer and MS Office Link) that integrate your Sage 100cloud system with Microsoft Office. Customizer allows you to modify application screens to work the way you run your business, including the ability to add user-defined fields, all without programming. Visual Postmaster is a wizard-driven tool that creates mail merges in a snap using Sage 100cloud data and/or custom databases for your mailing. MS Office Link can automatically merge accounting information in Sage 100cloud with Microsoft Word, Excel or Exchange software to quickly create custom documents, messages and attachments to send to individual customers or vendors.
Visual Integrator
In the past, businesses withstood standalone applications and performed software “workarounds” to achieve integrated reporting. Today, it’s expected that these products work together. Using open database connectivity (ODBC), Visual Integrator provides fully automated data transfer from SAGE 100cloud and other business applications. If you regularly import data from a custom or vertical software package, you’ll find you can use Visual Integrator to make the integration virtually seamless.
