As good as Sage Line 50 is, I have to admit that we do get some complaints about standard reports in Sage Line 50. For example there is no real Control Account Reconciliation Report.
So, if you want to reconcile the opening and closing debtors or creditors balances, it requires a lot of work as there is no suitable summary report in Sage.
With a view to this we have designed a report that summarises all transcation in the Debtors & Creditors account. So you now get a single report listing Total Sales, Credits, Receipts, etc that should help you reconcile same.
I have set up a sample of this report in a PDF format on this link – Control Account Summary
(you will be notified about security concerns – but all is Ok so select same)
You would run this report for debtors and creditors separately and it will populate the top or bottom of the page as appropriate.
If you are interested in obtaining this report then contact me alison@compuland.ie and I can arrange same.
PS. If you require other reports that are not included in Sage then please contact us with your requirements.
