What is the difference between Sage 50cloud and Sage Accounting?

Sage 50cloud or Sage Instant is a desktop application, while Sage Accounting is a Cloud application. This means that you won’t be able to access Sage Line 50/Instant login from a computer where it hasn’t been installed. With Sage Accounting, you can access your Sage login portal from any device.

How difficult is it to integrate to Sage?

This integration requires the installation of a small program that allows records from our web-based software to send information to a desktop application. Sage50cloud (or Sage Instant) is a desktop integration; it is not as seamless as connecting to other cloud-based packages.

Can I import my customers from Sage 50 Instant into Commusoft?

Yes, when integrating, you will be prompted to opt in or out of importing all of your customer data from Xero to Commusoft. Customer data will be imported however it is stored. If your customer data is messy in Xero it will then be messy in Commusoft.

Can I use Sage 50 Instant and Commusoft at the same time?

If you only have one login for Sage, you will need to close Sage for records to send from Commusoft as we will require the login to access your package in the background. If you have a dedicated Sage user for Commusoft, then you will be able to process records while also having Sage open. Make sure that your antivirus is set-up to allow this type of communication, otherwise there might be issues in data going across.

Can the integration interface pass information if the Sage server is closed down?

Unfortunately, if the Sage server is down or malfunctioning, there is nothing the Commusoft team can do to help. All communication between the two software will stop until the Sage server is back online.

Does Sage 50 Instant support Commusoft’s CIS functionality?

No, it will not pass the functionality values over to Sage Line 50 Instant as the integration does not support this feature; however Sage Accounting – the online Cloud version – does support it and we do pass the values along.

How much of a customer’s profile does Sage receive from Commusoft?

We are able to communicate seamlessly with Sage therefore we’ll send the invoice number, work address, payment, description as well as create a customer record; this means that you won’t have to input double data manually in each system.

Can you assign nominal codes to one invoice?

Yes; and with Commusoft, you can assign multiple nominal codes to a single Sage 50cloud invoice.

What do I need to integrate with Sage 50cloud?

All you need is a Sage 50cloud account and a Commusoft account.
