Greetings!
It's hard to believe that 2008 is almost over.  We wish you a happy and healthy holiday season.  Stay warm.
 
The focus of this edition of Keeping in Touch is to highlight three solutions that can add significant value to your Sage MAS 90 / 200 system and help you gain efficiencies in working with your customers, suppliers, and inventory movement. 
Scanning

We've all seen bar code scanning at the grocery store.  Have you thought about it for your inventory?

Bar code scanning is the answer when you need to automate your warehouse.  Incorrect customer shipments are practically eliminated.  Serial number and lot number tracking is easier.  The dreaded annual physical count is streamlined -- a two day inventory count can be reduced to 1/2 day.  Inventory on hand accuracy is only a bar code scan away!
 
We have worked with two different suppliers for Sage MAS 90 / 200 bar code solutions.  Two of our customers are using the warehouse automation solutions from Scanforce Software.  Scanforce's attention to detail and customer service is top-notch.  Click here to check out their website and additional product offerings.  Or click here to download the brochure.  Scanco has the original bar code solution for Sage MAS 90 / 200.  Click here to access their website.  Online demonstrations are available for both of these solutions.  Click here if you would like to discuss either of these solutions with us.
E-Business
The e-business solution for your Sage MAS 90 / 200 software is available directly from Sage, not a third party vendor.  There are 3 components to the e-business suite:
.store - display your products on your website (linked, of course, directly to your Sage MAS 90 / 200 inventory database with real time on hand availability)
.order - customers can place orders directly on your website; orders are transferred to Sage MAS 90 / 200 automatically, or you have the option to edit and approve them first
.inquiry - customers can maintain their own ship to locations online, as well as check the status of their orders

EDI
Has your customer or vendor thrown down the gauntlet?  If you want to continue to trade with us, you MUST set up EDI.  This is becoming more common in our global economy.  We have worked with two third-party vendors who have built EDI solutions for Sage MAS 90 / 200.  SWK Technologies, Inc has created an EDI solution that has maximum flexibility for creating trading documents.  For more information on SWK, please click here to go to their website, or click here to see their EDI brochure.  Kissinger's EDI Advantage solution was the first EDI solution for Sage MAS 90 / 200.  This is a very comprehensive EDI solution.  Click here to access the EDI Advantage website or click here to access their brochure.
 
Online demonstrations are available for both of these EDI solutions.  Click here to contact us to schedule an EDI demonstration or to get additional information.
 
 
We look forward to your feedback and your ideas for future issues of our newsletter.  Please let us know how we can help you Get the Most from Your Sage MAS 90 / 200 Investment.
 
Sincerely,
