Eliminate the need to pay extra for custom reports
New in the Sage Pro ERP 2010 system is the ability to customize the report option grid so you can create custom filters and sort options for your reports. You can even save these custom report options to be reused as needed.

Stop wasting time formatting report data or creating custom exports
Eliminate time formerly spent cleaning up report data prior to analysis with the new ability to export formatted or unformatted data from the report option grid. You can even choose your preferred file type or format: Microsoft Excel®, HTML, XML, ASCII Delimited, or Text.

Access your favorite data drillers quickly and easily
Do you use certain standard or custom data drillers on a regular basis? There’s no longer any |need to search through the whole list to find your favorites: The new data driller organization tool in your Sage Pro 2010 software lets you define Dataview Groups and associate default data drillers to each, significantly cutting down on time.

Make sure preferred customers have priority on available inventory
A new check box in Sales Order lets you reserve inventory for a particular customer order. This eliminates the risk of penalties that some customers may charge when stock gets too low or is undershipped.

Streamline your data import process with enhanced import options
Importing data has never been easier! Sage Pro 2010 technology offers several enhanced options to help simplify your data import.

  • You’ll know exactly where you are in the import process, thanks to a new display, which indicates the current status, like “Importing item 2 of 7.” In addition, choosing Quick Import no longer prompts you at each stage of the process. Since it runs silently in the background, you don’t need to monitor the import constantly.

  • New import options include Item at Location and Item Supplier. You can now also import line-level descriptions and import and export vendor cost levels.

  • When importing payroll posting, there is an option to print the invalid posting report before completing the import, for added convenience.

  • When importing items into the Sage Pro 2010 system, there is an option to choose a default item location, where the items will be assigned upon import, so you’ll always know where imported items can be found.

  • Additional new features include the ability to edit subledger batches that have been imported.

Enjoy enhanced flexibility in exporting data
A new option to export from Data Center tables allows you to export your tables and fields in several formats. Choose from Microsoft Excel, ASCII Delimited, XML, and CSV.

Save money on payroll printing
A new feature in Sage Pro 2010 allows you to save on costly preprinted check forms while keeping your check numbers consistent for reconciliation. The overflow check stub feature for Payroll prints the overflow of check stubs to blank paper or a separate printer when you have a check with more than 12 advice lines, so you don’t need to waste expensive check forms for anything but checks. In addition, a new direct deposit Web upload option for ACH makes direct deposit data transferring smoother and easier.

Expanded printing details make invoices and order reports clearer
Sage Pro 2010 offers additional details on invoices and reports, so you can now provide more information to internal and external clients. Deposits collected against a sales order are now included in Sales Order Printing and the Open Orders report, and invoice printing includes the applied amounts and payments received details and also displays balance invoice amount, so you can tell at a glance how much is still owed on each order.

Set up multiple Inter-Company Transaction accounts for clearer audit trails
Previously, the Inter-Company Transaction (ICT) module allowed for only one account, making the audit trail of a series of transactions hard to follow. Now you can select any General Ledger account as the Inter-Company Clearing account. Detail descriptions of ICT postings in Sage Pro 2010 are also enhanced to display more details about transactions.

Easily access more details on Inter-Company Transactions through enhanced reports
A new, easily accessible report menu item in Sage Pro 2010 lets you run a summary report for Inter-Company Transactions that were distributed in the source company, received from other companies, or consolidated, distributed, or received.

Enjoy expanded compatibility options
Sage Pro ERP is now fully compatible with Microsoft Office® 2007 including the new formats of Microsoft Word and Excel, like DOCX and XLSX, in various processes. Now functions like import, export, merge, dunning, charts, and pivot tables are available. Sage Pro ERP is now also fully compatible with Microsoft SQL Server® 2008.

Edit partially released work orders
This new feature lets you edit the required quantities of released component lines of a work order, allowing you to keep your work orders up to date.

Change the order quantity of Sales Order finished good line items
If you need to edit the order quantity of finished good line items in a Sales Order, you can do so easily in Sage Pro 2010. When the quantity of that line is changed, reconfiguration of components takes place automatically, according to your designated explosion method and the BOM setting.

Expanded Accounts Payable options eliminate need to change the system date and enhance security
Several enhancements to the Accounts Payable (AP) module in Sage Pro 2010 expand your options when voiding checks and invoices. With the new ability to change a date when voiding AP invoices, you don’t have to change the system date in order to void an invoice in a prior or future period date. You can also now void prepayment checks after applying them to an invoice. In addition, Sage Pro 2010 introduces the ability to set a default date when voiding AP and Payroll checks. Simply enter a void date while voiding these checks and direct deposit to void the checks or direct deposit in a prior or future period date without changing the system date. Security is also enhanced in Sage Pro 2010. A warning for duplicate invoice numbers in Accounts Payable eliminates the risk of double-paying a single invoice.

See the total quantity of components required for jobs
A new feature in your Sage Pro 2010 software lets you print the Work in Progress report grouped and ordered by component. This convenient feature shows you at a glance the total quantity of a particular component or of all component items required for all of your jobs in a single print run.

Improved performance in a multiuser environment
Sage Pro 2010 technology facilitates storing the screen positions in a local table instead of the system table SYUFSPR if preferred. This produces a significant improvement in performance in a typical multiuser environment when many users simultaneously exit out of the screen.

See when national and regular accounts were last applied
This new feature updates and shows the last applied date and amount in the customer maintenance screen for national accounts and regular customers.

Start accepting commercial credit cards
Support for commercial credit cards is new in Sage Pro 2010. This frequently requested feature can help to reduce rates with merchant accounts and save you money.

Access the Receive Orders screen more easily from change or void
A new shortcut button has been added to the Purchase Order Change or Void Orders screen to launch the Receive Orders screen, saving you time in the Purchase Order process.

Access favorite forms more quickly from shortcuts
Easy access to favorite forms is now possible through hotkeys (like ALT-K), which can be set in the Organize Favorites screen. You’ll be able to get to your most frequently used forms in a couple of keystrokes, saving you valuable time. Users can also choose to show hot key text when you hover over a function if you forget which hotkey was selected for a function.

Expanded deposit options for Sales Order
Sage Pro now allows collecting multiple deposits against a Sales Order. It is also now possible to collect deposits through Sales Order Change or Void Orders, all of which give you more flexibility in deposit payments.
