Payroll

The Process Payroll Assistant streamlines payroll as it walks you through the payroll process. Set up your payroll with automatic income, deductions, accruals, and expense tracking. You can set your employee pay rates as hourly, salary, or commission with the Payroll Easy Setup Assistant. Edit paychecks directly from the assistant, then record and process. Deliver pay stubs by email, or print them out.

Vacation and Sick Leave Tracking

Set up AccountEdge to automatically accrue vacation and sick time, and then deduct that time as it’s used to provide your employees with a running total of available time off. Use the Accrual Balance reports to provide a quick overview of time used and time remaining and add notes within the Leave Tracking Information module to further define what the time was used for.

Inventory

Manage Your Inventory

AccountEdge’s powerful Inventory command center allows for total inventory control: multiple pricing levels, kit-building and negative inventory. Receive inventory into multiple locations, whether it’s different shelves in a warehouse or different warehouses altogether. You can even keep a digital photo of each item for easy reference. Screenshot.

Item card

The Items Register

Open the Items Register and get a picture of your inventory: where it came from, where it is, and where it is going. The Items Register lets you check your inventory levels, build items, and adjust inventory. Screenshot.

The Items List

The Items List gives you total control of your items: add descriptions, locations, and a photo of each item. Screenshot.

Items list

Receiving inventory

When a shipment of inventory arrives, not all of the goods always come in at once. AccountEdge lets you place an order, receive inventory against the order, track what inventory is still outstanding to be received, and create a bill for the outstanding goods, all while maintaining a connection with the original purchase order.

Inventory

Buying Details

Track buying details for your items like standard cost, last purchase price, and units of measure when purchasing. You can link a primary vendor to each item for reorders, and a minimum level before you want an alert to tell you to restock.

Selling Details

Create selling details, including base selling price, selling units of measure, and 6 pricing levels with 5 quantity breaks each for a total of 30 different selling prices for each of your items.

Count Inventory

Open Count Inventory from the command center to quickly adjust the quantities of your items so they match the actual quantities in stock. If you use locations, you can group your inventory list by item or by location. Screenshot.

Count inventory

Inventory locations

Whether inventory items are organized by bin, on shelves, or in different warehouses, you can find out how many you have and where they are by location. Use the Move Items window to shift your inventory from place to place, and even build reports sorted by location to learn sales, purchase prices, and more. Screenshot.

Item locations

Build Kits

AccountEdge automates the build process, making it easy to combine multiple items and build them into a finished item with Auto-build. You can set minimum levels so that when an item necessary for building another starts running low, you will be given an alert that you need to replenish that item. Screenshot.

Auto build

Enhanced search of the items list

AccountEdge comes with an enhanced search that lets you search by a number of fields. For example, choose to search by Item Name and only items that contain the keyword you use will show up, saving you the pain of the old search and scroll technique.

Time Billing

Track and Bill Your Time

Track and bill your time with the Time Billing command center, using multiple billing rates, tracking chargeable and non-chargeable time, and billing in hours, increments of hours, or units.

Track and Report on Time

Time billing in AccountEdge is integrated with your Payroll, so you can send all of your employees' time tracked directly to the Process Payroll Assistant. You can also track all aspects of time captured with 15 Time Billing reports. AccountEdge includes productivity reports that compare time tracked to time billed and alert you to rate exceptions.

Enter Timesheets

Employee time tracked with timesheets flows to invoicing, job tracking, and payroll. Using timesheets, you can quickly calculate employee pay, and you can also create activity slips based on timesheet entries. Screenshot.

More Choice For Activity Slip Entry

When creating an activity slip, choose the activity, customer, or employee billing rate. Manually enter time onto a slip directly, or make use of the integrated timer. Create slips individually, or create them on a timesheet or even directly on an invoice. When creating invoices, you can include the standard brief description or the detailed notes from your activity slip. Screenshot.

Activity slip

Flexible setup of activities

Set billing rates on your contact cards, allowing for multiple billing rates: customer, employee, or activity. You can also make activities hourly or non-hourly, and chargeable or non-chargeable, all when creating an activity slip to track time spent on a task.

Back up to Disk or MobileMe

Backing up your information is a crucial - but often over-looked - part of managing your business. AccountEdge makes it easy and gives you options: you can easily back up your company file to disk or to MobileMe.

Budget for 2 Years

Budgets can be entered from a single window that displays all balance sheet accounts together on a single window and all profit and loss accounts on another. Shortcuts allow for the current year budget to be copied into next years budget so that only minor alterations have to be made, rather than spending time starting on a fresh budget screen. Screenshot.

Keep Your Information Secure

The Company Data Auditor found in the Accounts command center lets you keep your important financial information in top condition. Use it to learn important information on your company file like size and location, troubleshoot problem areas such as imbalances in your receivables, and review changes made to the company file (and learn who made the changes). Screenshot.

Purchases

Manage your accounts payable

Use the Purchases command center to keep track of purchases and payables, automatically calculate taxes and volume discounts, easily enter returns or adjustments on - or apply refunds and payments against - purchase orders. You can pay bills electronically using the ACH system, or print out fully customized checks and then send your vendor a payment notification.

Print 1099 and 1096 Forms

Setup a vendor and choose to report payments to a 1099, and at the end of a year, AccountEdge automatically calculates the amount(s) to be shown on the 1099 forms and under which categories the amount(s) should fall. Screenshot.

Print/Email Payment Notifications

Use the Print/Email Payment Notifications feature to send your vendors a statement showing that you are sending payment for a purchase order or group of purchase orders. If there is a dispute as to when a payment was sent and for what items or services the payment covers, a payment notification is a quick, easy way to help resolve the issue. Screenshot.

Payment notifications

Make payments to vendors

Use the Open Bills tab of the purchases register to find out which vendors you owe, and then open the pay bills window to write checks against your open bills. When you fill in the vendor field, you can choose which bills to pay and exactly how much to pay for a given vendor right in the pay bills window. Once you record the check, click Print Checks to choose which checks to print, and then email your vendors payment notifications to let them know their payment is on the way. Screenshot.
