Wayne Shulz of Shulz Consulting found this very informative video on Credit Card Industry security requirements and how it applies to Sage MAS90 and MAS200. It really applies to any application that electronically process credit cards however.

Monday, February 8th, 2010How to use Pivot Tables in Excel
Friday, July 17th, 2009Here is an ‘oldie but a goodie’ from our original site that we’ve had people ask for often. This is more relevant for Microsoft Office 2003. These can be used nicely with all our ERP packages including:
- Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Navision)
- Microsoft Dynamics AX (Axapta)
- Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains)
- Microsoft Dynamics SL (Solomon)
- Sage MAS90, MAS200, MAS500 (MAS 90, MAS 200, MAS 500)
- SAP Business One
PivotTable Reports 101
Let’s suppose you’ve compiled a large list of data – for example, sales figures for every product your company makes. But now you’re ready to distill some meaningful information from the data. For example, you might want to answer the following questions:
· What is the total sales for each product by region?
· Which products are selling best over time?
· Who is your highest-performing salesperson?
For these and other questions, you can create a PivotTable® report – an interactive table that automatically extracts, organizes, and summarizes your data. You can then use the report to analyze the data – for example, make comparisons, detect patterns and relationships, and analyze trends.
Read on to discover what you can do with a PivotTable report.
Dynamics GP or MAS 90 and MAS 200. Which is a “Legacy” system?
Monday, July 13th, 2009An interesting blog post here that compares the definition of ‘legacy’ and sees how that definition applies to mas90/200 and Dynamics GP (Great Plains).
In the end, I don’t think the development environment matters to most end users unless they have serious professionals on staff that do code development and know a specific language or environment.
The post is here.
Accounting Software Shootout
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009
We often get asked if we will do live software comparisons between leading ERP, accounting, distribution or manufacturing programs.
We’ve tried to do live scheduled seminars but have found there wasn’t enough interest in local companies coming out for a day to see this.
On our site, we have extensive information and demos on the leading solutions from Sage, Microsoft and SAP including Sage MAS90, MAS200, MAS500, Microsoft Dynamics NAV, AX, GP & SL as well as SAP Business One. The landing page is HERE.
We have often looked at individual prospect’s and client’s needs and shown more than one application for them and us to decide which is the best possible fit and this has worked out well in the end. That being said, if you would be interested in a live web based product shootout please email us at info@clientsfirst-us.com and if you could also post a comment below, and if enough interest exists, we’ll do a scheduled shootout.
Breaking News-Looks Like Microsoft FRx lives as PerformancePoint “dies”
Friday, February 13th, 2009Per an article from Network Computing Here. It looks like Microsoft will no longer be offering the PerformancePoint bundle of applications.
It will roll the analytics, dashboarding and scorecarding into the enterprise version of Sharepoint server for free. It seems to be killing off the Planning and Reporting application that was supposed to eventually replace FRx, their Dynamics unit’s financial reporting tool that came along with the original Great Plains acquisition.
There have been rumors for a while that FRx was no longer going to be enhanced and eventually phased out. This article essentially says FRx now lives on.
Given the huge knowledgebase of expertise out there, including among our 90minds members, this is great news for the simple and easy to utilize tool known as FRx.
