Confused about the future of FRx?
Want to find out more about Sage MAS Intelligence (SMI)?
As a means of continuous improvement to the reporting technology and changes within Microsoft, we have some exciting news for you. Sage MAS Intelligence has been introduced into the MAS family as its standard financial reporting tool. What does that mean for you? It means that Sage will be replacing your existing FRx licenses with Sage MAS Intelligence (SMI). Automatic Shipment of this software begins in October.
What is SMI and how will this impact reporting?
In the short term, you will have the ability to use both FRx and SMI. Your support for FRx will NOT change.
SMI is based on the familiar Microsoft Excel application. You will be able to create reports and analyze data as before but with some additional program capabilities. Instead of access being limited to just General Ledger, you will have access to all modules and data. You will be able to build your reports in Excel rather than creating the report in one program and then exporting to Excel.
Sage MAS Intelligence will be available for customers on MAS90/200 version 4.4, MAS500 version 7.3, and MAS90/200 Extended Enterprise Suite version 1.4.
Again… FRx support is not being abandoned. Support will be available during the transition between FRx and SMI.
There is a great deal of information to be shared and questions to be answered. We have asked Debbie Hill, a Solution Engineer at Sage, to assist us in presenting this information to you. We will be hosting two webinars to review the changes and what they mean to you. The first session will be a general overview of the Sage MAS Intelligence and how the licensing and support are going to be handled. The second session will be a more in depth look at Sage MAS Intelligence. We invite you to attend one or both of these sessions.
