- Free AccountMate V7.4 New Features Webinar
- TechNote: Tracking Commissionable Sales in AccountMate

|
Dear AccountMate Clients,
The biggest advantage to AccountMate's LifeCycle Maintenance
is it's the most cost effective option for
automatically receiving build and version updates - it both
saves money and is a level annual cost. But what grabs the
headlines is the new features that are released with each new
build and version.
New build and version releases of AccountMate regularly
"alternate" between the LAN and SQL product lines - with the
latest build update release being V7.4 for SQL just a few weeks
ago, which we've already implemented internally at a handful of
clients.
So, for the AccountMate/LAN clients, you know your turn will be
next - but for the AccountMate/SQL clients,
AccountMate is hosting a FREE
hour long
webinar next Wednesday on the new features of AccountMate SQL and SQL/Express
Version 7.4.
The webinar presents all the major enhancements and changes -
including the new "Executive Summary" function that provides a
complete snapshot of your company's current financial situation.
The webinar is offered one day only,
June 10 from
10-11 PDT.
If you are interested in attending the
webinar please hit <reply> to this e-mail, or send directly to
nexlan@nexlan.com, and we will be glad to get you registered.
On the running front, I'm back from my 105-miler through the hills of southwest England over Memorial Day weekend.
It was a fundraiser for the British Meningitis Trust on behalf
of a runner from the local "Stroud and District Athletic Club"
with the goal of finishing in under 24 hours - which I did with
plenty of elbow room, finishing in 23:08. If you're
interested in learning more, I've put up a website with complete details, including
pictures and video, at
http://kestrou.com/cotswoldway.
Next up is a local 12-hour American Cancer Society "Relay for
Life" around a flat 1/2 mile track. It's really geared for
"little old ladies in tennis shoes" to run a lap or two and then
pass a baton, but I'll be running as a one-person team with the
goal of 70 miles.
Should be easy since it's running for ONLY 12 hours, right?!
<grin>

Note:
Tracking Commissionable Sales in AccountMate
Companies strive to come up with creative ways to
motivate their sales force. One popular way to do this is by paying
commission. To effectively evaluate each salesperson’s performance
and determine the commission amounts owed to each, management needs
to know which sales are subject to commission. AccountMate tracks
commissionable sales transactions in two ways: one is to track it
for each item sold; another is to track per sales order or invoice.
This week’s Technical Note discusses how these two options affect
the manner in which commissionable sales transactions are recorded
in AccountMate and the report that can be used to monitor such
transactions. Click the title of the article below to access the document.

Q:
How do I amend the ship quantities of a fully shipped sales
order?
A: To decrease
the ship quantities, you must cancel the ship quantity using
the Cancel Shipment function. Take note that you cannot
cancel a shipment that is included in an AR invoice. To
increase the ship
quantities, you must first adjust the order quantity by
amending the sales order; then, ship the open order
quantities.
