What’s New in the Latest Release?
Grace Freeman, Sage Intacct Head of Customer Support for Percipient, gives us her overview of what you can expect from Sage Intacct’s first software update for 2023 (R1 2023).
Save Time Applying Credits to Bills
You can now use an on-the-fly filter in the pay bills list to restrict available credits to a date range. When you filter by credit range along with the due date, you can view a list of bills that includes only the available credits created during a corresponding time frame.
For example, say you are paying bills for January and only want to apply credits with transaction dates in the same month.
Previously, after filtering the bills by the due date, you had to individually evaluate each bill with available credits. This meant drilling down to the line details and then the credit details, noting the transaction dates for the credits, and selectively applying credits based on that information.
Now, after filtering using the same date range for the due date and credits, you can select bills, click ‘apply credits’, and be done.
In addition to the new filter, you can now view the credit date when you drill down to credit details, without needing to open the credit transaction.
Creation Rules Now Support VAT & GST
Minimize the time required to enter known recurring bank transactions and save even more time during reconciliation.
You can now define transaction templates to include tax implications for your VAT and GST tax needs. When a new transaction is created, tax is accounted for so you do not need to adjust the transaction afterwards.
For VAT or GST-enabled companies, you can now automatically include a tax on journal entries and credit card transactions created using a creation rule.
Just use a transaction template to calculate and record VAT or GST on created transactions and select an existing tax schedule. Then, add the transaction template to a creation rule. Add the creation rule to a rule set which you can then apply to an account.
This feature is only for inclusive taxes.
