Sage 50 Cash Flow

How to create a cash flow statement in Sage 50

Sage 50 cash flow

What does a cash flow projection consists of.  This report may be required if you are looking at additional financing for your business or need to report to a board of directors or potential buyer.  It is also useful for anticipating future cash shortfalls.  After reviewing what makes up a cash flow projection, we will go through an example using data from Sage 50.

 

What is a Sage 50 cash flow projection?

A cash flow projection consists of three main parts:

  • The beginning cash balances
  • Plus, anticipated cash receipts
  • Less Expected cash disbursements

In Sage 50 there is a built-in Sage 50 cash flow statement.

It is found under analysis – under the main task bar and then by selecting cash flow.

Displayed will be the account number, description and the cash balance as of today if you are running in real time or have smart posting activated. As you can see, we have four bank accounts with a total available balance of $57,238.60 but will only be working with the regular checking account with a balance of $16,116.52 as of today.

The next step is to specify the time frame to be included in the projection found in the upper left corner of the window.

We will now work with the file tab expected incoming cash. Most businesses will use the current outstanding customer invoices as the source of the expected cash receipts section. This information is from the Sage 50 customer open invoice file.  For this example, we will assume that we receive the cash on the due date for the full amount of the invoice.

By default, most of these invoices will be select to be included in the projected cash balance. However, as you can see there are a few invoices with a date displayed in red. This indicates they are past the due date of expected payment. To include them as an exception, edit the date field and modify it to have an expected date after today’s date. And then use the include column to add it to the calculation.

 

If the business has another source of cash that is not showing up in the current receivables this should also be included.  Examples of these could be rents, royalties, or any kind of investment income and perhaps customer deposits.

 

To add a what if for other types of expected incoming cash you will use the adjustment in the type field,

Enter a value in the code number, id and name, date and amount fields and be sure to use the include column to add it to the calculation. In this example we have added an expected deposit on a project from a client of $15,000.

Next, we will work with the file tab expected outgoing cash. Expected cash disbursements for most businesses come from two sources:

  1. The outstanding vendor invoices
  2. Payroll and related expenses such as taxes and benefits

This information is pulled from the Sage 50 vendor open invoice file.  Like the customer invoices these are assumed to be paid on the due date in the full amount and are spread out over the same periods.

 

If you need to add a what if for other types of outgoing cash you can also add it to this file tab as an adjustment in the type field, Enter a value in the code number, id and name, date and amount fields and be sure to use the include column to add it to the calculation.

 

As we mentioned with cash receipts, if there are any additional cash requirements not listed above, they should also be included. Examples of these may be loan or line of credit payments, recurring and automatic payments from your bank accounts.

This format of this report can be easily modified using your excel skills and then shared with others.

 

Discounts are one additional consideration which may affect the amount of the receipt or disbursement to be expected.  The invoice balances already recorded would generally be used for planning but if you offer early payment discounts to your customers or if your vendors offer them to you, these should be considered if they are normally taken or given.

 

Lastly the timing of the receipt or disbursement need to be addressed.  Every invoice should have a due date associated with it.  However, as mentioned previously, early payment discounts may provide enough incentive for someone to pay earlier than that date.  In addition, although an invoice may have a net 30 days terms associated with it, it is not uncommon for the average time an invoice is paid to stretch a little.  Most systems will keep track of the average days to pay by customer and vendor.  This number, added to the invoice date, can provide a more realistic model if utilized.

 

If this is a format you wish to return to you can save your selections and the what if scenarios that have been identified for later use.

Sage 50 Bill of Material assembly sub-assembly work ticket build

Sage 50 Bill of Material

Sage 50 Bill of Material

I wanted to provide you with the process below which I think will help clarify how Sage 50 assemblies work. Hopefully this will be enough information to test thru the process with me or your team. The reason for my suggesting you walk thru this is to see the effort required to manage multiple level bill of materials.

When using multiple level bill of materials Sage 50 does not have the capacity to help you manage processes like scheduling, timing of demands for inventory items or shop floor routing and scanning capabilities. I bring these points up to confirm whether or not you might need those now or in the future to help your day to day operations become more efficient.

Sage 50 Bill of Material by Sage Software

Sage 50 can do multiple level bill of materials. Most often the challenge is that each sub assembly needs to be completed One at a time Before the final assembly can be completed and invoiced. Sage 50 does not have a back flush feature to allow

You to have clients request a delivery date and then manage the purchase order or build process to calculate the needed start date.

That said Sage 100 will step up to those needs. I can get a demo set up for this application so you can see the difference. The only conflict I am aware of in running Sage 50 and Sage 100 on the same serve is a potential conflict in the versions Of crystal reporting.

Discovery

Once we have a discovery call on Sage 100, I can then pull together pricing. If you wish I can get this on our schedule and we can offer estimates of conversion. We have migrated many clients in similar positions.

Yes, you can have some folks on Sage 50 and Some on Sage 100. A Consideration would be consolidated financials If you are doing that now using Sage 50 consolidated financials. That said Sage Intelligence may be able to provide this with a bit of setup. During the initial discussion we can him his opinion of Sage Intacct which may be Another option.

Let me know how you want to proceed. I am here to help. 800-475-1047

This is the process To set up inventory items

Set up all raw materials as inventory item class “stock”

Example of stock item is PTWheel-6

Set up all sub-assemblies as inventory item class “assembly”

Example of sub-assembly is PTHANDLE-ASM

Set up finished item – as inventory item class ‘assembly”

the components could be raw materials and/or sub-assemblies

Example of finished item is Red Lawn Mower

Item ID Item Description Qty Needed Qty on Hand Est Cost
Red Lawn Mower Red 18″ Reel Mower w/Tracking
. PTHANDLE-ASM 4′ Handle Assembly 1.00
. . PTHANDLE-BENT4 Handle – 4 ft bent 2.00 150.00 13.18

In this example the highlighted items in orange are the sub-assemblies – this is the report found at

Reports – inventory – bill of materials

In the items that are sub-assemblies or final assemblies there is an option on the bill of materials file tab

Which allows you to include or exclude the component items from the customer orders.

You can build using one of two available methods

  • Option a. Assembly Build
    • Found under tasks – Assemblies
  • Option b. Work Tickets
    • Found under tasks Work Tickets

Either of these you would need to

Step 1. Build the sub-assemblies one at a time using assemblies or work tickets

Step 2. Build the final product

This build of the final product is the step that rolls up all costs

The thing I like about work tickets is you have a printable document

Where you can add some steps to help identify the process and give direction

Then when the build is complete a document that can be provided to the front

Office to complete paperwork and invoicing

Then when you ship/invoice the final product you would have

  • Reports by customer
  • By item
  • Sales
  • Cost of Sales
  • Profitability

The only item needed on the sales order or invoice is the finished item

+ any misc. items you may wish to include

I would recommend

As in any product you not allow the inventory to have quantities on hand

Go into a negative level.

Create Purchase Orders from Work Tickets in Sage 50

Create Purchase Orders from Work Tickets in Sage 50

How do you autofill or auto create Purchase Orders from work tickets in Sage 50? 

Sage 50 allows you to set up Inventory Item Defaults to auto create purchase orders in Sage 50 behind the scenes. The Ordering tab of this window has options that let you enable the auto-creation of POs for:

  1. drop-ship transactions
  2. non-drop-ship transactions
  3. work tickets

Important:For auto-creation of purchase orders to work, your company must be using the real-time posting method.

You can treat each auto-created purchase order just as you would a manually created one. You can edit the purchase order, print it, or e-mail it to a vendor in the Purchase Orders window.

Note: Even if your company is set up for auto-creation of purchase orders, Sage 50 will not automatically create POs for recurring customer invoices. Instead, you will have to manually generate POs for any inventory that you need to reorder as a result of recurring invoices.

To auto create purchase orders from work tickets in Sage 50, the following criteria must be met:

  • Each item must be set up in Maintain Inventory Items with a preferred vendor.
  • The user who is entering the transactions listed below must have access rights to add Purchase Orders.
  • The quantity ordered of one or more of the items must cause the quantity available as of the transaction date to fall below minimum stock levels.

If these conditions are met and your company is set up to auto create purchase orders in Sage 50. Sage 50 will automatically create a purchase order each time a work ticket is saved. In addition, to ensure that auto-creation works most effectively, each item in Maintain Inventory Items should be set up with a minimum stock level and minimum reorder quantity. Sage 50 will auto-create purchase orders from Work Tickets for inventory items that fall into the following item classes only

  • stock
  • substock
  • serialized stock.

Crystal Reports

Yes, Crystal Reports is one way to extract data from Sage 50 and we can train you on the process. You would not need to have the product prior to the  training. However, we have found that on-line training without the ability to immediately practice what has been demonstrated has a lower retention rate. You will also need to gain experience by practicing. The final element is to be able to find the appropriate data tables and fields to retrieve the data for use within those reports.

Please note, that although Crystal Reports can still be used with Sage 50, Sage has not included Crystal Reports as part of the Sage 50 product since 2014. A license has to be purchased separately. It is generally not recommended as the external report writer of choice unless reports were created prior it’s being removed from the product. It is most often required when these reports are still needed or new reports are required that cannot be created using the currently support Sage Intelligence external report writer.

Sage 50 Advanced Reports Options

  • Crystal Reports
  • Financial Designer
  • Sage Intelligence

Choose printing preference

The first step is to confirm the types of reports that you are expected to produce. This will confirm that Crystal Reports in the most appropriate choice for those reports. Other reporting options include

  • The built in report designer
  • Financial statement designer
  • Built in forms designer
  • Sage Intelligence

Print a Crystal Report in Sage 50

If Crystal is the most appropriate choice for an external report writer, I would be glad to set up an online training session for you. It is always helpful to know the reports you wish to produce, so I can choose one as example during training to give you experience in determining the tables and fields to create a specific report.
