MultiTAS - providing advanced features for TAS BOOKS
Infoplex, the most successful third party developer of TAS BOOKS software has launched its MultiTAS solution - a suite of modestly priced software that enhances TAS BOOKS to the level of other packages costing thousands more.
MultiTAS incorporates a range of tools that help businesses handle their sales, financial ledger and stock control in a much more effective and streamlined way - able to quickly perform tasks that were previously time-consuming and complex.
The advanced document processing and reporting capability of MultiTAS provides a convenient and sophisticated way for companies to handle sales documents, invoice posting, sales analysis, stock reporting or price lists, and means that users can easily customise these documents with a minimum of fuss, and can then issue them via email, effortlessly.
Sales orders can be imported quickly and efficiently from a company website's eCommerce system with MultiTAS, automating the manual keying of data in TAS 611 and quotations, proformas and credit notes can also be imported.
In addition, users can print weights, both for individual items and document totals, as well as counts of the number of items for delivery documents. This means that the total weight of a package can be produced on a delivery note or the total number of items can be placed on a delivery label - all by simply using a formula.
Users can preview documents before committing them to printer or file (PDF, Excel, Word etc), email or another application. They can also generate customer-specific price lists based on TAS product prices and dynamic discounts with no trouble, using customisable report templates to change the layout, insert a company logo, or even print pictures of products or barcode labels.
When it comes to Financial Ledgers, MultiTAS contains productivity tools for the TAS Sales, Purchase, Nominal and Cashbook ledgers. These allow users to import and update customer and supplier lists, import and post journal transactions, import and update budgets, report and export customer and supplier details and report or export Sales and Purchase Ledger Open Items.
These tools help eliminate the duplication of data and reduce errors meaning that financial controls are more effective and greater business accuracy is achieved.
With MultiTAS Stock, businesses can reach new levels of productivity with more reliable stock data, precise inventory control and responsive supply chain management, ensuring that any bottlenecks are identified at the earliest opportunity.
Useful tools include convenient product maintenance, multi-site stock management capability, automated stock adjustments, dynamic discounts, multiple product code and group changes, sales and gap analysis reporting, GRNI reporting and a Bill of Materials option.
Mark Ramsay, Managing Director, Infoplex said: "Normally, TAS BOOKS uses Microsoft Word to let users customise documents such as quotations and invoices, but this has a number of limitations and can often prove difficult and awkward. With MultiTAS users can access some invaluable features of the industry-standard database reporting tool, Crystal Reports, to customise their reports and documents with logos and formulae specific to their businesses - it is even possible to print images associated with products for sale."
Infoplex is a specialist developer of software solutions for users of TAS BOOKS accounting software, with over 12 years of experience in this area, and is now branching out further with the pioneering OrderBooks technology.
