Sage Payment Services Receives Final PCI-DSS Certification Paperwork

September 15, 2010 by Wayne Schulz

Sage Payment Services had officially completed all their credit card compliance testing well in advance of the July 1, 2010 deadline for the software to be certified. However due to backlogs in processing paperwork the final certification documents had been pending.

Here is the latest certification – as of 9/4/2010 – showing Sage Payments as PCI-DSS compliance. If needed print the following and provide it to anyone requesting proof that your Sage Payment Services credit card processing is PCI-DSS compliant.

ACH Electronic Payment For MAS 90 Accounts Payable – New In V4.4

July 24, 2010 by Wayne Schulz

Sage just released a new Product Update #2 for Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200. In my opinion one of the top features in this update is the ability to pay accounts payable invoices electronically.

Many times our clients have employee expense checks that are sent out weekly, bi-weekly, monthly or even a few times a week. The employees who receive those checks often are sometimes not in the office which requires the to be mailed.

This introduces delays, increased postage cost and extra administrative time spent stuffing envelopes. Sure this may not be a big issue for those with two or three employees. Ramp the number of employees up to 100 or more — and suddenly you have a potential administrative time sink.

The newest release of Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 – which is available for download to those on the Basic Maintenance plan — adds ACH electronic processing. If you’ve used the Direct Deposit for Payroll – the ACH for accounts payable works nearly identically.

Unlike older versions of ACH for Accounts Payable – this updated feature allows you to create your own customized export of data so that if a bank needs a feed adjusted to fit their required layout you have the ability to do this yourself without hiring a programmer.

Sage has a nice 6 minute vide that showcases the ACH for Accounts Payable.

We can install and configure this during your upgrade – and help you manage the first few exports of data to your bank. Of course we have clients who have been doing this for years and we are happy to connect our clients to those already using the enhancement to get direct feedback on their experiences.

PS – I noticed after composing this article that I mistakenly pasted in the YouTube from last night’s Lou Gramm concert at Mohegan Sun. The video you want of the ACH for MAS 90 is here.

Enjoy Lou Gramm performing Jukebox Hero live at Mohegan Sun 7/23/2010 (former lead singer of Foreigner).

MAS 500 7.3 Gets Native Avalara Sales Tax Processing Code – Eases Upgrade Process

March 23, 2010 by Wayne Schulz

Avalara announced yesterday that their Sales Tax for MAS 500 (aka Sage Sales Tax) now has the code embedded into the MAS 500 version 7.3 release.

Sales tax processing embedded in MAS 500 allows for the user to receive accurate tax computations on each order that’s processed through the system. The monthly or quarterly sales tax returns can also be processed for any state – with resulting forms transmitted to the appropriate state.

Sales tax processing is the type of procedure that most companies take for granted — until challenged on an audit. With states increasingly under pressure to raise revenues it’s increasingly likely that more audit resources will be deployed to verify that companies are charging and collecting proper amounts of sales tax.

According to Sage,

Sage MAS 500 and Sage Sales Tax developers worked together and added code (hooks) specifically for Sage Sales Tax in the base MAS 500 code for 7.3. This was done so users who installed Sage Sales Tax for MAS 500 7.3 would not have to obtain updates from Avalara each time MAS 500 released a Monthly Update.

Avalara (www.avalara.com), the leading provider of Web-based sales tax automation and compliance solutions, announced today that Sage Sales Tax, Powered by AvaTax™, is now embedded within the code base of Sage MAS 500, beginning with version 7.3. Sage’s award winning research and development team led the integration effort to address significant customer demand and to enhance customer experience.

“This is a major endorsement from one of the industry’s most highly regarded providers of ERP and other business applications”

“Sage Sales Tax, Powered by AvaTax, is a great example of how Sage is executing on our strategy to deliver hosted services that make the most sense for our customers,” said Alan Bryant, Sage senior vice president. “Integrating key hosted, SaaS, and other cloud-based service offerings into Sage’s on-premise business applications gives our customers the best of both worlds.”
