Make Informed Business Decisions

The Sage MAS 500 General Ledger module puts you in firm control of your business by giving you quick access to mission-critical financial data.

The General Ledger module combines power and flexibility with ease of use, to give you the critical information you need to make timely and informed business decisions and manage your business more effectively. The system’s extensive drill-down capabilities enable you to view everything from detailed journal entries to original source documents.

Sage MAS 500 has the flexibility to accommodate complex company structures. You can set up an unlimited number of companies and designate account numbers with up to 15 segments and as many as 100 characters. Through Microsoft FRx and Crystal Reports software, you’ll enjoy the flexibility of virtually unlimited reporting options. The system also lets you maintain budget data in a spreadsheet, then update the general ledger through a direct COM link.

The user-defined processing options found in Sage MAS 500 can save time, increase productivity and enhance efficiency by allowing you to automatically add new accounts; print periodend reports; enter, revise and maintain budgets; purge data and close the period.
