System Manager:  Controls access to all accounting applications and affects nearly everything you do in your ACCPAC system.  Provide true bank administration and reconciliation, maintain all tax authorities and tax classes for the entire system in one place, and create analytical reports, graphs, charts and budgets using Microsoft Excel.

General Ledger:  Offers extensive drill down from journal entries to the originating sub-ledger transaction, fully integrates with Microsoft Office to create robust reports, spreadsheets, graphs and charts as well as customized financial statements.  Allows users to maintain separate periods for adjusting and closing entries and assign different retained earnings accounts to different account segments.  Allows creation of alphanumeric account number as long as 45 characters.

Accounts Receivable:  Comprehensive drill down capabilities include tracking transactions all the way from General Ledger to Accounts Receivable to original order in Order Entry and following customer activity transactions and receipts to originating entries.  Create adjusting batches to automatically write off small account or transactions balances.  Track sales statistics for each salesperson.  Create a new customer and ship-to ‘on the fly’ while entering invoices.

Accounts Payable:  Includes same comprehensive drill down capabilities as Accounts Receivable.  Set up recurring payables and automatically remind staff to process them.  Ability to prepay invoices that have not been received while automatically generating separate checks for each invoice or create summary checks when needed.  Change discount percentages or amounts as required and establish standard payment selection criteria for creating check batches.

Inventory Control:  Integrates bar coding technology via ACCPAC Warehouse Management System.  Handles unlimited units of measure per item with fractional conversion factors as well as different units of measure for purchasing, selling and stock keeping.  Flexible costing methods allow for as many as six different costs per location with the option for two user-defined costs.  Also, maintains reorder and sales projection information by period and/or location.

Purchase Orders:  Allows for active purchase orders, standing purchase orders, future purchase orders and blanket purchase orders.  Automatically produce purchase orders from Inventory Control reorder information or from Order Entry requirements; can include only backordered or insufficient quantity items from sales orders, if desired.  Additional charges can be allocated by quantity, weight, cost, or manually.  Quantities can be entered using any unit of measure defined in Inventory Control.  Or, use Purchase Orders as a stand alone module without Inventory Control integration.
