Sage 200 2010, released end June 2010, introduces a new report designer.

We will be hosting some webinar sessions during summer 2010 to introduce you to this new designer plus some of the other new features in 2010. If you would like to attend one of these webinar sessions then please email jenny.evans@gccinnova.co.uk

Some of the new features of the designer are:

Reporting Layer & Extensions

A layer between the report writer and the database tables which pre-links the tables allowing easier understanding of the underlying database and where to get your data from. You can also add other tables (from other databases if required) through a graphical link area.

Sub Reports & Drill Down Reports

You can now embed sub reports into another report or launch another report from within a report.

Cleaner Excel Export

Define what can be exported to excel for a cleaner download into excel.

Calculations on Calculations

Your formulae can now include the results of other formulae without copying the entire formula over into your new field. You can also save your frequently used calculations as “snippets” to reuse later

Cherry Pick Criteria (Filters)

You can add additional criteria (filters) and they can also allow you to cherry pick the items you want at run time, for example, a stock report that includes groups 1, 2, 5 and 7 but not 3, 4 and 6

Amend the Design in Preview

You can fine tune the layout of the report when looking at the report after it has run, so you can immediately see the impact of moving fields into the correct places.

Other Stuff

Spellchecker, copying text in from other programs / reports, resort groups without deletions being necessary and easier field alignment. Join one of our webinars for a walk through of some of these features or get in touch if you are interested in Sage 200 2010.

There are upcoming changes in legislation which we expect will affect the majority of Sage 200 Suite customers. From the 1st April 2010, HMRC legislation changes dictate that all companies with a turnover of more than £100,000 will have to submit their VAT returns electronically.

 

To comply with this change in legislation Sage has included a new feature in the Sage 200 v2010 release. This feature will provide a link to the HMRC gateway, allowing users to electronically submit and pay their VAT return online.

 

Sage 200 v2010 is scheduled for release in June; therefore those customers who are affected by the change in legislation may need to submit their initial returns manually via the HMRC government gateway.

 

Those customers who are affected by the legislation and are not upgrading to Sage 200 v2010 i.e. Sage 200 v2009 and below, Sage MMS and Line 100 customers, will need to submit their returns manually via the HMRC government gateway from April onwards.

Purchase Order Authorisation

Improvements to this area including remote authorisation.

 

Sage 200 Mobile

Giving remote access to Sage 200 to remote users.

 

VAT Returns

On-line filing of VAT returns to meet legislative changes.

 

Wish List Changes

Sage are making large efforts to include customer wish list items into future releases, so make sure you tell us of any areas you'd like to see improved or added.

 

Some examples of wish list items that have been included in Sage 200 2010 are:

 

• Retrospective stock valuation
