Customer stories

• Profile: Governmental Organization

• Business Problem: The newly appointed Chief Accountant was struck by the task of filing a large amount of paper documents and the efforts required for archiving and retrieving document copies. She set herself a target to reduce paperwork to a minimum.

• Solution: She looked for a tool that would allow attaching electronic images and documents, such as forms, scanned receipts, invoices, written approvals, etc., to Sage 300 transactions. After a thorough investigation, she purchased six Document Attachment Applets to facilitate this process.

• Results: The paper-based document filing system is now fully digitized and incorporated in Sage 300, making data well organized and easily accessible. Paper consumption and time spent on printing copies have reduced significantly. In fact, an effective document management system is now in place at the fraction of the industry average cost.

• Profile: Digital Printing Company

• Business Problem: The Company had to enter long descriptions of project requirements for each Quote or Sales Order, so that the production team could later have enough information to produce them. Sixty characters available for standard Sage 300 fields were not sufficient to capture the necessary information.

• Solution: Deploying the O/E Order Applet with its support for 255 character long text fields addressed this issue.

• Results: The necessary details are now entered during order entry. The accounting team no longer wastes time in splitting and entering project descriptions in multiple fields or use emails and notes to communicate these requirements to the production team.
