Sage Biz Start up

  • been using for about 3 months... Personally like it as its simple to use and my accountant uses sage so he also preffers it to my previously recording cashflow in an excel database. Also considering incoporating it directly to our checkout system which should allow it to record sales automatically.

    I am testing it out, have accidentally saved (but not issued) invoice #1, which I now want to delete, but it doesn't allow me to do this, what's the best option, issue it to a test customer and then credit it? Or just leave it unissued and ignore it .........

    it's bugging me now!
  • I use an excel spreadsheet for the accounts, it took a lot of time to get it right but it produces all the information that I need and great reports for the accountants at the end of year.

    The nice thing is with it, if I want to do something different then I can, with Sage I have heard the same stories for years, its like any software of its kind. OK if you want to do bog standard day to day stuff, but often when you try to do something different its limited and you cannot do quite what you want.

    Excel everytime. Otherwise you are going to end up with issues like the previous poster digp has just come across.
