Sage Accounting Solutions

The Sage Group Plc, based in the North East of England, is the world's leading supplier of business management software, with over 2.8 million customers located all around the world. It's origins were in the supply of accounting and payroll solutions, but have now grown to encompass a broad range of integrated business applications, including e-business solutions, CRM (customer relationship management) software, human resource management solutions and time recording and billing products.

Freeway has long been associated with Sage Accounting Solutions - being some of the very first integration links we marketed. That association has continued to this day and Freeway figure prominently in the Sage Dealer base as the premier supplier of EDI and integrated EDI solutions. Providing solutions for all Sage products, Line 50, Line 100, Line 200 and Sage MMS, under any operating system, has firmly established Freeway as the solution of choice recommended by dealers, consultants and, perhaps best of all, existing users.

As a registered Sage Developer Freeway now supports over 200 customers integrating EDI, XML, Flat File or Web Form messages with Sage via the Freeway Spectrum Professional product range. The clear advantage is the one-stop-shop, meaning that Freeway need not rely on a 3rd party software provider, and support the whole solution, not just part of it.

Spectrum Professional integrates key messages with Sage Line 50, Line 100 & Sage MMS, including Sales Orders, Sales Invoices, Acknowledgements, Advances Shipping Notes, Credits, Purchase Orders and Purchase Invoices. There are also now solutions available for users of Sage Enterprise Solutions, including Sage Line 200 and Line 500, offering considerable savings over competitive offerings.

Freeway is also happy to work with Sage Resellers, to assist in offering the right EDI solutions for their clients, and to work with new and existing customers to make sure that the right solution is supplied at the right price.

Case study

Nottingham-based Leapfrog UK Ltd is a company that acts as a Brand Manager for well-known names supplying toiletries, including Kangol, Miss Selfridge, NBA and Jeff Banks. Their customers include major high street retailers of these products including Boots and Superdrug.

Earlier this year, Boots asked Leapfrog to adopt Electronic Trading with them using EDI, and suggested to them that they contact Freeway as a preferred supplier of EDI software. Leapfrog agreed to purchase Freeway's Spectrum Professional software and ordered a complete package including Invoice Integration with their Sage Line 50 back office software, EDI Mailbox, training and on-going support.

Commenting on Freeway's service, Charlotte Gardie from Leapfrog said: "I was very impressed by Freeway's service. My installation was very quick and very efficient and the training was clear and very easy to understand. I have since recommended Freeway to other companies and will be happy to do so again."

Leapfrog is now fully live with Boots on EDI and their invoices are automatically sent from Sage with no re-keying required. They are now expanding their system and are adding Superdrug as their latest EDI trading partner.
