Why adopt a small business accounting package and then go through the disruption of switching software as your company grows?

The Starter Package is for companies with up to 5 software users, that need more than the standard accounting software packages that are available, but for whom the full SAP Business One solution is just too powerful. The SAP Business One Starter Package delivers functionality that helps you manage:

Accounting and Financials

Within the SAP® Business One Starter Package you can manage your journals, general ledger, accounts payable and accounts receivable.

You can carry out all your banking activities, including processing payments by cash, credit card, cheque, bank transfer, and bill of exchange, as well as reconcile various accounts and create financial reports for profit and loss, cash flow, balance sheet, and aging debt.

You can also update account postings in real time as various business events occur.

Sales and Customers (including CRM)

Embedded CRM functionality allows you to track sales opportunities and activities from first contact to the end of the sales process and beyond.

You can carry out marketing campaigns by utilising the templates available for mass e-shots.

The SAP Business One Starter Package also lets you manage and maintain customer contacts with full Microsoft Outlook synchronization, which results in increased sales effectiveness and helps build strong customer relationships.

Purchasing and Operations

Every small business needs an organised approach to managing the procurement process, from creating purchase orders to paying vendors.

The SAP® Business One Starter Package aids in managing the complete order-to-pay cycle, including receipts, invoices, and returns.

With integrated SAP Crystal Reports software and query tools, you can analyse your vendors’ performance and adapt your procurement processes accordingly.

Stock and Distribution

The SAP® Business One Starter Package allows you to manage your stock and operations, including delivery, and billing.

You can perform stock valuation using different methods such as standard costing, moving average, and FIFO; monitor stock levels; and track transfers in real time and across multiple warehouses.

In addition, you can run real-time stock updates, availability checks, manage pricing and special pricing, which allows you to automatically apply volume, cash, and account discounts to transactions with vendors and customers.

Reporting and Administration

The SAP® Business One Starter Package provides powerful integrated analytic’s and reporting tools to help you access the essential business information that you may need.

With fully integrated SAP Crystal Reports, you can gather data from multiple sources and generate timely, tailored and accurate reports based on critical company data across financials, sales, customers, stock, and operations.

The SAP Business One Starter Package is completely integrated with the Microsoft Office products and focused on data security. SAP Crystal Reports allows you to choose from a variety of report formats and to control access to the information displayed.

You can use additional functionalities that are an integral part of the SAP Business One solution such as “drag and relate” and interactive drilling down through multiple levels of relevant data to get complete business information in real-time.

Performance and Reliability

SAP offers a remote support platform for the SAP® Business One Starter Package to help you maintain your software system more easily and proactively preventing potential issues from impacting on your day to day business activities.

As an automated monitoring tool, this remote support platform helps identify system bottlenecks by enabling SAP support services to collect information on your system status and check the system against known support issues.

By sending regular status e-mails and automatic fixes, it allows you to avoid issues from happening and decrease the time you would otherwise spend on IT support.

In addition, the tool provides several other services including automated database backups, pre-upgrade evaluations, stock valuation checkups, and system installation health checks.
