Sage Software Introduces FAS Canada 50 Asset Accounting: Comprehensive Fixed Asset Management for Small Businesses
| Source: Sage Software, Inc.
HERNDON, VA--(Marketwire - January 21, 2008) - Sage Software introduced today FAS Canada 50
Asset Accounting, an automated fixed asset accounting software solution
specifically designed for smaller Canadian businesses. FAS Canada 50 Asset
Accounting brings comprehensive yet easy-to-use fixed asset management
functionality to businesses managing fewer than 1,000 fixed assets. Part of
the Sage Software family of business management solutions, FAS Canada 50
Asset Accounting integrates with Simply Accounting by Sage, the number one
recommended small business accounting software package by Canadian
accountants*. This gives Simply Accounting by Sage users all the benefits
of comprehensive fixed asset management and thorough accounting
functionality, all from Sage Software.
FAS Canada 50 Asset Accounting is an ideal solution for first-time users of
fixed asset management software, organizing fixed assets in an easy-to-view
format and performing complex depreciation calculations quickly and easily.
FAS Canada 50 Asset Accounting integrates with Simply Accounting by Sage
and is designed to share fixed asset information with other popular General
Ledger (GL) systems or modules. This helps users save time and improves
data accuracy by eliminating duplicate data entry tasks. FAS Canada 50
Asset Accounting also includes 16 pre-defined reports for financial and tax
reporting on fixed assets, enabling smaller businesses to take full
advantage of depreciation opportunities to minimize tax burdens.
"Owners of smaller businesses often don't know the money they can save from
proper depreciation of fixed assets or don't think they can afford an
automated fixed asset accounting solution," said Chris Donie, senior vice
president and general manager of Sage FAS. "FAS Canada 50 Asset Accounting
brings to these smaller businesses the same powerful tools that have been
satisfying the needs of larger Canadian organizations for years and at a
very reasonable cost."
FAS Canada 50 Asset Accounting improves business decision making with
easy-to-use fixed asset accounting and reporting features. The Company
Setup Wizard makes getting started fast and easy, plus the Asset Wizard
simplifies the creation, acquisition and depreciation of fixed assets.
Built-in depreciation rules ensure the correct depreciation method and tax
schedule, and the easy asset disposal feature guides users through the
process of eliminating assets from inventory.
