Training
Sage Product Training
Training
is a vital element for the correct usage of any
system. This is equally important with financial
systems as the improper use of any system could
have monetary consequences. At Smith Cooper we
offer training on all Sage products from Instant
accounts, through Line 50 up to the mid market
divisions Sage 200/MMS software. We are also accredited
to supply and train you on other Sage products
such as ACT!, Payroll, PayPoint etc.
Our training
methods are tailored to suit each company’s
requirements. Our training can range from general
product overview training for a group to individual
training on a specific area of a particular product.
We have a dedicated training room at our Derby
offices where the equipment can be set up to emulate
your site. This provides users with the look and
feel of their system without the constant distractions
of a busy office. Alternatively we can provide
training at your premises either training on your
live system or in a backup dataset.
Training can
be booked by the hour, half day or full day sessions.
On request, detailed training manuals with screen
shots based around your data can be provided to
complement the training and act as a reference
guide once you are ready to go live with your Sage
product.
All of our Sage trainers are fully Sage
accredited and are qualified accountants. They
have been working with Sage products for over 10
years, so all have a vast amount of knowledge in
both the product and industry.
If you require any
training from product overview, version upgrade
or just a product refresher please do not hesitate
to contact sage@smithcooper.co.uk or alternatively
call 0870 241 6904.
Sage Reconciliation Work
From
time to time your Sage accounts program may get
in disorder and you may find that figures are not
reconciling as you would expect. It is because
of this that we are now offering a specialized
service to Sage users who think their system may
require attention.
Our Sage team is made up of
qualified accountants and Sage Accredited product
specialists who understand both the product and
accounting requirements. By calling on these skills
and our vast product experience we are able to
resolve all Sage data and accounting issues.
Examples
of the common issues that we resolve are
• Aged
creditors and Aged debtors not agreeing to the
trial balance
• PAYE & national insurance
creditor not agreeing to what is actually owed
• Bank
A/Cs do not reconcile to the statement and nominal
ledger
• VAT
• Stock valuation and
level issues
• Foreign currency issues and
revaluation issues
Reasons for these occurrences
can be due to data integrity problems caused by
system crashes or faulty bespoke modifications,
transactions being posted to the wrong codes, journal
entries not being processed correctly, opening
balance adjustments from your final year end accounts
not being processed on your Sage system or just
a lack of understanding of the processes that Sage
requires to maintain its balances.
Save Time, Money
and reduce stress
We have already helped many companies
to reconcile their accounts, providing them with
a true clear picture of their current financial
state and left them with monthly procedures and
reconciliation sheets to follow at each month end
to ensure the accuracy is continued once Smith
Cooper have done their work.
The benefits of this
service can easily outweigh the costs. By reconciling
VAT possible overpayments can be identified. This
in turn provides your staff with a stable and reconciled
position to work from and clear procedures to follow
to ensure that the issue does not happen again
and if it does it will be easily identified. The
peace of mind of a balanced and reconciled system
gives your users the confidence to fully utilize
the system.
A quote from a recent client that we
helped reconcile their MMS system is
“Many
thanks to Smith Cooper who provided an excellent
reconciliation service. Our accounts are now up
to date and I learned a lot in the process.”
