Sage 50cloud Pastel Partner offers the power and productivity of a trusted desktop solution and gives you everything you need to run your business wherever you are through a seamless integration with Microsoft 365 Business (previously Office 365). Run your business more efficiently with a time-saving, in-depth solution to manage your accounting, invoicing, cash flow, inventory, VAT, and more.
This module helps you to optimise your collections process, and generate up to date and accurate cash flow forecasts from your debtor’s book.
Sage 50cloud Pastel Receipting is a specialised add-on module for Sage 50cloud Pastel Partner. It allows you to enter data once in order to process and print receipts. You can do this without having to use your cash book. Once you are ready, Sage 50cloud Pastel Receipting will automatically move the receipts into your cash book for you.
It can be difficult trying to keep track of a project’s income and expenses. Money in and out, budgets and
project income statements can be a nightmare to prepare – especially when you have multiple projects on the go. The Sage 50cloud Pastel Project Tracker allows you to manage your projects, associated budgets and costs while providing in-depth reporting keeping you in control of each project’s financial position.
With the Time and Billing add-on module to Sage 50cloud Pastel Partner accounting software, simply
complete timesheets for employees and charge your customers via activities. The activities that you create
are the services you sell to your customers. These activities per employee timesheets can be used to create
customer invoices.
Together with the Inventory module, the Sage 50cloud Pastel Bill of Materials module gives you access to two related functions: bill of materials and kit item codes. With this module, you can build, assemble, or manufacture any inventory item using other inventory items as parts or components.
The kit item codes allow for the specification of one code on an invoice, and the system leads multiple invoice lines that can include inventory items and remark lines. You can also create bills of materials or kit item codes with an unlimited number of components.
Up to three non-inventory additional costs associated with the bill of materials can be created, for example, labour, freight and overhead costs, or if you are a manufacturer, you can remove component items and create manufactured items.
Fixed assets are physical items such as desks, computers, cars, and machinery which you acquire to run your business. South African Company Law requires that you keep a register of your business’ fixed assets as part of its accounting records. However, business fixed asset management can be tedious and time-consuming. As you use assets, they depreciate or become obsolete. You can legally expense depreciation in your accounts for tax purposes. The Sage 50cloud Pastel Fixed Assets add-on module takes care of all of this for you. Managing your fixed assets includes the following tasks:
Once you provide the initial information, the Sage 50cloud Pastel Fixed Assets add-on module takes over and manages your assets for you. One of the realities of fixed assets processing is that companies frequently change depreciation rules as legislation allows and as company policy changes. Some changes are retroactive to when you purchased the asset. Sage 50cloud Pastel Fixed Assets calculates its values dynamically from the start of each asset’s life, which makes retroactive changes simple. Imagine the time required to accurately programme all this yourself into a spreadsheet!
* Fixed Assets can be used in conjunction with the core Sage 50cloud Pastel system or can be purchased as a stand-alone product.
Working with multiple stores is almost identical to working with normal inventory or stock. The only difference is that, each time you want to access an inventory item, you specify the store in which the item exists. Sage 50cloud Pastel Multi-Warehousing makes it easy to track and control inventory items. Some of the features include:
Sage 50cloud Pastel Serial Number Tracking allows you to track items from the moment you purchase or manufacture them, to the time you sell them. With this stock control software module, each item has its own unique serial number, enabling you to track the item for warranty purposes, should it be returned to you for repairs.
Use Sage 50cloud Pastel Serial Number Tracking with other add-on modules like Sage 50cloud Pastel Multi- Stores / Warehousing and Sage 50cloud Pastel Bill of Materials. By using the multi-stores / warehousing module, you can transfer serialised inventory items between stores, and our bill of materials module, allows you to manufacture into serialised items.
