Pastel means control
Choose the correct accounting product for your needs
What does it mean if you lose control of the activities of the money in your business? Can software such as the Pastel accounting applications place you in control once more? Once you start losing track of your money, then your business is essentially falling apart at the seams one stitch at a time. In a business of any size, you certainly cannot underestimate the very real importance of owning a quality accounting software application, and one with multi-user functionally for your larger businesses.
If your network based database is not correctly accounting for your employees monthly accounting situations (or your own), then you need to keep a system in place that ensures that everything is in order - this also includes painting a clear picture of your financial status for SARS when the appropriate times comes. There are a few options to choose from, and Pastel has products that can suit all budgets and requirements. Follow some of these guidelines to get you to the point where you can decide on the correct product for your needs.
Some of the more obvious qualities to look out for include: That it is CRM compatible software – If the Pastel installation or basic function impede on your CRM systems, then either look for a workaround or a different product. Other none-negotiable additions include banking, costing, daily financials, general ledger facility, a balance sheet for profits and losses, receipts and accounts payable. Other functions that have become increasingly important as late include: credit card processing, shipping quotes, a neat graphical depiction of figures/reports, functionality for multi-currency, inventory management and sales order processing.
Ensure that your accounting software can operate with more than one person per machine. Multiple users per machine equates to big savings in the long run. As your industry grows, you will need a product that as such, grows with you. Whether you want speed, capabilities for growth or interconnectivity with the internet, Pastel products can become the solution for you.
