Control
costs and manage supplier relationships effectively
Easy
to use and highly functional, the Sage MMS Purchase
Ledger provides a wealth of features to help you
maintain consistent, controlled relationships with
your suppliers.
Define terms of business
for each supplier account. (E.g agreed number of days for settlement of payments, settlement discount
and credit limit.)
Analyse supplier accounts
with up to three user definable categories. (E.g. region, type and account manager.)
e-Mail direct from supplier records and launch
your
suppliers' websites.
Attach a file to a
supplier's account. (E.g. word processing
documents, images and spreadsheets.)
Graphically analyse
and present supplier data. (E.g bar charts show
turnover and aged balances.)
Transaction 'drill
down' facility. Analyse supplier transactions
under query. (E.g. details of invoice items,
and payments made.)
Unlimited transaction history.
Batch data entry. Amend, add to or delete
entries of batches of transactions, before finally
committing them to the Purchase Ledger.
Trade in up to 100
foreign currencies. The Purchase Ledger will
maintain the balance and turnover details of
the account in both the operating currency of
the supplier and the base currency equivalent.
Send payments to a
factor house. Send payments to
a company that collects supplier debts on their
behalf.

overdue for payment and those that if paid will
qualify for settlement discount. Payments can
then be made electronically or cheques and/or
remittance advice printed.

e-Banking facility. Post supplier payments directly through your banking software.
Key
Features and Benefits:
Supplier
details are easily accessible Sage MMS has an intuitive
user interface, which means that contact details,
trading terms and transaction history are all
within easy reach. All information is presented
graphically where appropriate, for example,
bar charts are used to show turnover and aged
balances.
Quickly
locate and interrogate transaction data Utilising the 'drill
down' facility, you can further analyse transactions
under query, for example, details of invoice
items, and payments made.
Designed
for rapid data entry The Purchase Ledger
can be configured with numerous defaults to
speed up the data entry process, and ensure
compliance with agreed terms of business. For
example, VAT can be applied to transactions
at the standard rate automatically, and a 'for
authorisation' flag set on invoice transactions
over a certain value.
Process
foreign currency transactions With Sage MMS, you
can trade in up to 100 foreign currencies.
At the point of setting up a customer account, a currency can be
assigned in which the account will operate. The Sales Ledger will
maintain the turnover details of the account in both the operating
currency of the customer and the base currency equivalent.
Receipts can be entered through either the Sales Ledger or Cash Book
modules, and a 'gain' or 'loss' will be calculated to account for
changes in the exchange rate.
Manage
tasks simultaneously The convenience of being
able to execute a number of tasks simultaneously
is just one of the many facets of Sage MMS,
which serve to increase productivity and ease
of use. If for example, you can run a customer
account credit enquiry whilst entering a Sales
invoice transaction.
