Five things Pegasus Opera 3 can help you do better & faster

Admin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 17:11:48 +0000

Users of Pegasus Opera II – Did you know that Pegasus Opera 3 can help you perform many tasks much easier and faster than you currently can? Not only does the new interface make navigating the accounts software much easier, but there are also many new dedicated features to assist you.

Here’s a list of five features Pegasus Opera 3 has to help you complete tasks easier:

Better reporting
Run, view or minimise reports whilst navigating around other areas of Pegasus Opera 3. You can now also search through reports to find specific information.
Flexible accounting
If you missed posting a journal in the past three previous financial years you can now easily do so in Nominal Ledger with Pegasus Opera 3. This same functionality allows you to post up to three years in the future.
Landed costs
If you import goods you can now see the costs of getting the goods delivered, including everything from freight charges through to tax. This removes the need for manual spread sheet work that many businesses did to ensure they are fully aware of their costs.
Improved user interface
It’s a major step forward from Opera II’s interface. Based on the Microsoft Office interface, your staff will be able to navigate around the system easily and find the features that are important to them fast.
System Alerts
Send messages to users who are currently using the software to notify them of upcoming backups or other changes that may affect their work.

The webinar will cover the developments in Pegasus Opera 3 in the past year which has added even more features to the system and prompted many businesses to update to the latest offering of accounts software from Pegasus. The changes and new features include:

- Landed Costs
Easily know the final pricing of stock purchased from overseas suppliers, incorporating all extra fees that are charged, with the Landed Costs functionality within the Supply Chain Management.

- Retrospective Debtor and Creditor Reporting
New retrospective debtors and creditors reports have been introduced into the sales and purchase ledgers so you can look back at a customer and supplier debt at a chosen time in the past. This can be extremely beneficial at a period or year end.

- A new task in the Scheduler
You are now able to schedule repeat invoices to be sent out automatically on a specified time and date.

- Stocktake
Stocktake is a completely new addition to Opera 3 and helps you improve accountability and stock management. Part of this removes the need to post adjustments individually which previously took a large amount of time to complete.

- Notification & Shutdown Services
It can be a frustrating when preparing to run key processes that require exclusive access to Opera 3 but you can now communicate more effectively with your users and ensure that they are all logged out of the system in time to cut down on unnecessary disruptions.

Pegasus XRL Video Demonstration: Seamlessly Link Your Accounts with Microsoft Excel

Ashley Williams — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 16:44:44 +0000

Pegasus XRL can enhance the capabilities of Microsoft Excel greatly by providing you with access to all of the financial information stored within Pegasus Opera 3 or Opera II. All of the information that is brought across from either of the accounts packages is up to date and allows you to use the power of Microsoft Excel to create sophisticated reports so you can make informed business decisions and stop ‘best guessing’ or working on ‘gut feelings’.

Furthermore, Pegasus XRL allows you to save time by only requiring you to setup reports once, so if you regularly run the same report you easily populate it with the latest data from your accounts package and not affect your complex calculations.

Watch the video below to see Pegasus XRL in action:

If you are a user of Pegasus XRL and want to understand your business better or perhaps you’re interested in using Pegasus XRL but are worried of time constraints that would stop you from being able to create the reports you need, we have a pack of XRL reports available for only £150. This pack means you can instantly create reports with the latest information on your business, allowing you to analyse the data instantly and understand your business better.

You can read more on Pegasus XRL or alternatively contact us on 0800 0433 106 or email@hbp-group.co.uk.
