Sage MAS 500 - Microsoft Project Link Module 
 
 
Microsoft Project Link Facilitates a Streamlined, End-to-End Project Management Solution

In recent years, the software industry has seen the emergence of a variety of solutions designed to help companies better manage projects. Notably, the majority of these systems can be grouped into one of two categories — project accounting or project management. In the simplest terms, project management software aims to deliver projects on schedule. Project accounting solutions strive to deliver projects on budget.

Unfortunately, while many companies have successfully implemented project accounting or project management solutions, most have not been able to get the systems to inter-operate. Instead, project managers and finance departments have resorted to communicating through e-mail, paper reports and home-spun spreadsheets. These methods spawn projects that lack direction, leaving all personnel involved inadequately informed.

To solve these inefficiencies, Sage Software proudly offers a link that enables you to integrate Microsoft Project, a leading project management solution, with Sage MAS 500. Through the synthesis of these products, Sage Software is able to provide its customers with an end-to-end solution that facilitates seamless information workflow. By passing data between these two systems, project managers are kept informed of changes or potential overruns, while the finance department simultaneously knows when to generate invoices. The versatility of the link is underscored by its ability to update a diverse range of project costs and time with a single data entry.

Web-Based Reporting

All Project Accounting reports can be generated and viewed through Microsoft Internet Explorer with our Web Reports module, at the same high level of security as with the module’s standard output. In addition, a set of Microsoft Project views and reports can be deployed through the Internet by leveraging Microsoft Project Central.
