Emailing from MAS - Webinar

In Sage MAS 90 / 200 v4.30, the Paperless Office module was introduced as part of the base software for MAS 90.

 

The Paperless Office module has 3 components to it:

  • Print Journals and Registers to PDF automatically
  • Print Period End Reports to PDF automatically
  • Print forms (invoices, statements, orders) to PDF and email them to customers or vendors

 

Join us on Tuesday, February 21, starting at 10am for a 90 minute walkthrough of the setup and processing of the emailing functions of Sage MAS 90 / 200.

Purchase Order - Last Cost or Standard Cost

  

Many of you have raised the question, "How can I get standard cost to appear on my purchase order rather than last cost?"  By design, MAS uses the last cost on a new purchase order.

  • Go to Purchase Order | Setup | Vendor Price Level Maintenance (also accessible from the Item Maintenance | Vendor button | Vendor Pricing icon)
  • Click on the Flashlight icon to see if you have any other vendor pricing rules setup (to make sure there is no conflict with any new rules that you're adding)
  • Select the Vendor, Pricing Type (Vendor), and Pricing Method.  If you select Cost Discount % in the Pricing Method field, and you leave the Discount % as 0, then you have set up a discount of 0% from the Standard Cost.  Do NOT select Standard Cost from the drop down list of Pricing Method -- if you do, then all items from that vendor will cost the same amount!
  • When you click Accept, you'll be prompted with an advisory warning message
  • Follow this method for all vendors that you issue Purchase Orders at the Standard Cost as indicated in the Item Maintenance screen
  • It's that easy.  Try it out and see if this makes your Purchase Order Entry process easier!
  • These instructions are valid for MAS 90 / 200 v4.4 and higher
