Using Business Intelligence
You want to get the most Business Intelligence
from your Sage CRM software and your Sage MAS90 accounting
software for small business? Let SmartBridge Partners
tie them together so you can leverage your solutions,
and your costs.
Here is an often-overlooked Fact of Life:
the only reason you buy accounting software for small
business like Sage MAS90 is because of the information it provides.
You use it to run the business. It is an important part
of CRM, too. But many businesses use only the most pedestrian
reporting functions of their software, like the bookkeeping
and cost accounting functions, to simply track costs.
But what if you could use all of the system’s
information in new, potent ways? What if you turned that
business information into business intelligence? Then
your accounting and CRM systems would go from mere business
data systems into powerful and valuable business management
systems.
SmartBridge Partners has been doing this
for years. It is a three step process:
 |
Reporting.
SmartBridge Partners works with you to ensure that
you get the most from the system’s canned reports.
Then we review the options on Sage CRM SalesLogix and Sage MAS90,
or your other Sage CRM and accounting software for
small business solutions, to enable you to create
reports that give you exactly the information you
need at exactly the right time so you can make the
best possible decisions to run your business

Data Integration. Sage
CRM or Sage CRM SalesLogix integrated with Sage MAS90 accounting
software for small business makes it easy to find
out who’s buying what and answer other business-critical
questions: Is that customer who just placed a $50,000
order near their credit limit? Tying information systems
together opens up incredible opportunities to increase
productivity and profitability.
|
 |
Business Alerts. The
next step is to automate communications throughout
the company. You can automatically alert managers
when inventories get low, or when an order is placed
that will strain inventory so they can reorder in
a timely fashion. You can automatically alert managers
when “Work-In-Process” counts get high so they can
review staffing needs. The possibilities are endless
and the efficiencies are obvious.

Much of this intelligence can also be accessed
via the web, whether you use a webbased CRM solution or
not, which only increases its value in managing your business.
