New version of Sage Enterprise Management ERP

Friday, May 24, 2019

Sage has released a new version (version 12) of Sage X3 ERP. Here is an introduction to what's new in this version.

What is Sage Enterprise Management ERP?

Before describing the new functionality in Sage X3, here is a brief introduction to the ERP system.

Sage X3 is an ERP system primarily targeting midsize companies and subsidiaries of large companies with international operations. The ERP system is currently used by more than 6,500 companies in over 80 countries for key areas and business processes such as accounting, sales, CRM, logistics, projects, inventory management, and manufacturing. At Systemstöd, we began adapting the ERP system to Swedish legislation and translating it into Swedish just under three years ago.

Sage Enterprise Management – version 12

Below are brief descriptions of new features in Sage Enterprise Management version 12:

User interface

The user interface, considered market-leading even before version 12 (read more on ERPblogg.se here >) has been further improved with a responsive design framework that enhances access to the ERP system on different mobile and desktop devices, regardless of type and size. Navigation has also been simplified further with an interactive site map and a favorites toolbar.

Global support for new and updated legal requirements

Sage Enterprise Management is currently used in various languages in more than 80 countries worldwide. Version 12 further updates the ERP system to meet new and revised legal requirements in several regions and countries, including the United States, France, Australia, Poland, and the United Kingdom.

Accounting

Accounting and all finance functions are integrated with every other part of the ERP system. Version 12 improves them further to support daily business operations with reconciliations, automatic journals, transaction and event traceability, real-time revenue tracking, and tax returns.

Sales, logistics, and purchasing

Sales and purchasing functions have been expanded to include features such as managing a default supplier per product site and non-invoiceable goods receipts. There is also support for REX (Registered Export System) identification of exports outside the EU and license plate numbering (LPN), enabling containers to be grouped and managed by container.

Manufacturing

Manufacturing and production support has been further improved in Sage Enterprise Management version 12, including enhancements to quality management, production management, and graphical production planning.
