Payroll
Sage offers a range of payroll options, so that you can create the solution that meets the specific needs of your business – whatever its type and size. Sage Payroll solutions contain the essential payroll processing requirements as well as HR functionality. Together, these two sides of the program put you firmly in control of your payroll process and of all employee information. The step-by-step process makes running your payroll a relatively simple task and automatic calculations mean that you can pay employees at the touch of a button. Sage Payroll solutions are accredited by the Inland Revenue and provide you with the peace of mind that vital calculations such as tax, National Insurance, Statutory Sick Pay and Statutory Maternity Pay are all being calculated accurately.

Job Costing
Sage Job Costing is designed for any business which charges on the basis of time, material, labour and other costs. It allows the customer to accurately track these costs and then automatically generate invoices to your clients, based on your choice of billing methods. In addition, it is a powerful tool for business analysis as it enables the customer to see at a glance how much you are spending on each job. With this information, you can take informed decisions about how to manage costs for improved profitability. Job Costing requires Sage Line 50 Accountant Plus or Financial Controller version 5 or above and can integrate with Sage Payroll version 5 or above (optional).

Forecasting
Sage Financial Forecasting enables you to complete forecasts with ease and gives you instant information on profit and loss, cash flow, funds flow and balance sheet. Using pre-installed formulae and integration with other software Financial Forecasting produces figures you can trust, in the shortest time and with minimum effort by you. This makes it easier to plan for “what if” scenario’s – for example, what if your sales decreased by 10% ? or what if you took on more staff ? This software will work equally well on its own or when linked to Sage Line 50, Sage Payroll or to Microsoft Excel.
