Sage 200 Professional 2023 R1 is now available and comes with a range of new and improved features designed to simplify your operations, save you time and enable better communication and collaboration between your teams.
In this release, Sage have introduced several new updates as well as major improvements to the API endpoints and enhanced migration tools.
These new features and enhancements will support your business in driving a better customer experience overall, with increased productivity and automation.
What’s new in the latest release?
Extended import capabilities to automate your accounting tasks.
Thanks to the latest release, you can now import vatable journals from spreadsheets or other systems, meaning you no longer need to carry out manual processing after imports or to use developer-built solutions for this purpose.
This update makes it simple to mass produce them, make the adjustments you need in Excel and add them to your data in just a few clicks. You can even create journals from scratch in Excel and import them into Sage 200!
This long-awaited improvement will save hours of manual data processing when it comes to importing external data to Sage 200.
Greater flexibility when it comes to managing warehouse or stock changes and updates.
Sage 200 Professional 2023 R1 gives you the capability to be more productive when doing mass changes and updates to your stock items, especially around stock management settings.
The new stock record export/import feature will enable you to mass update several stock record attributes on the fly, including minimum stock levels, default warehouses or even adding/deleting warehouse from stock records. You can do all of this by yourself, with no scripts or custom developments needed.
Reduce the admin burden within your SL / PL processes.
With this update, you can take advantage of the new allocation date setting to adjust it to your business needs.
You can now choose to use the payment/receipt date as the default allocation date and apply this setting individually for each sale and purchase ledger, which will help you to minimize manual entry errors and ensure that your aging reports are correct.
Improve the communication flow within your purchasing operations automation.
With a new alert and notification engine, you can now share key messages with your purchase order staff to ensure they get notified about important supplier details when processing purchase orders or returns, making orders much simpler.
This new feature can be found both on the browser user interface and on the traditional desktop UI.
Keep your runtime reports at hand and reprint them instantly, whenever you need.
In the past, runtime reports were a moment in time report and you could not rerun the same report twice.
This meant that if you had a printer problem, closed your screen, or your pc crashed – you couldn’t get that report back. Well, not anymore.
For Bank reconciliation, Vat Return and Year End reports where output mode is set to printer or preview, you will now find a new onscreen prompt that will enable you to add a report copy to the spooler, allowing you to free yourself from the fear of losing reports.
Automation & Simplicity: giving you more choice.
The new API extensions open the door to a wider ecosystem of applications (ISV Solutions), increasing the services and automation work flows available, allowing you to connect your business and build a truly custom-made solution to meet your specific business’s needs.
Continued development and improvements to the Sage 200 API guarantees a more seamless sharing of data and process automation between Sage 200 and integrated applications, significantly enhancing your user experience.
