Sage recently launched the latest versions of Sage Instant Accounts and Sage Line 50, its market leading accounting software, both with many new features and greater processing power. Both products have been designed to incorporate new functionality, the majority of which has been requested by the customer, while maintaining ease of use and great value for money.

New features in both Sage Instant Accounts and Sage Line 50 include...

New Look and Feel... Mirroring the evolution of Microsoft Windows, information is now more closely connected, easier to navigate and there is less need to click between screens. However, users can choose to maintain the classic Sage look and feel if preferred.

My Business Setup... Takes the user through a simple process to tailor the content and layout of screens, ensuring the system suits their particular business needs and therefore increasing usability and efficiency.

Smart Link... Intelligent navigation allows access to all customer and supplier transactions from one screen. View any transaction and 'hot link' to any corresponding information, for example invoices to orders and vice versa, saving time by placing the right information only one click away.

Accounts Analyser... Unlocks information in the Nominal Ledger which underlies the Profit and Loss Summary and Balance Sheet. A simple 'tree' format allows you to drill down to detailed data about the most important accounting areas - sales, purchases, direct expenses etc. De-mystifies accounts by providing easy to understand financial snapshots so you can view and analyse your finances e.g. instant year on year comparisons.

Sage Instant Accounts is an easy to use bookkeeping solution designed specifically for small businesses with little or no accounts knowledge. With a new and improved look and feel, Sage Instant Accounts is a totally integrated accounting system, designed to record all financial transactions, automatically update all basic ledgers, hold customer, supplier and product records, print invoices and produce financial reports.

Sage Line 50 is a powerful accounting system, giving businesses efficient stock management, improved cash management, automatic financial reports and easy access to management information - all designed to turn time-consuming accounting chores into simple tasks. Sage Line 50 also integrates with other products in the Sage range, including Sage Payroll and ACT! for Sage Line 50, to provide users with a complete business management system.
