General questions
How can I customise REES2000 to
meet our business requirements better?
In each module there is a Set-up option (number 14) which allows you to customize the module. Also, from option 14:14. You will find a whole range of options that allow you to customize REES2000. These can only be changed when no other users are in the system. Some care is also required in making changes here as it can fundamentally change the way that the system operates - It is recommended that changes in this area are only done in consultation with Rees Software & Systems Ltd.. Why are my reports printing out
strangely?
Rees2000 uses the 'Windows' Printer system for all output. It will automatically default to print to the default 'Windows' printer each time the printer is started. You may then select other installed 'windows' printers by pressing {ALT+F12}or selecting Printer options under the lookup tab using the mouse. If you are using a Dot Matrix printer then you must have '(E)' for Epson emulation or '(I)' for IBM graphics mode in the windows printer name. Refer to our 'Technical Printer Support Issues" page for more information on these issues. Also check the paper setting in 4.14 (Invoicing). Check the settings relating to pre-printed names on invoices, and length of invoice paper, especially if using MSL or Southmark stationery. This system has a wide range of
reports, most with several options to select -- how do I know what to print
and when?
Yes, there are a large number of reports available, and not all these reports will be necessary for your company. What we suggest is that you print each of these reports at the end of your first month with Rees2000, and see for yourself which reports you find useful and which you do not. It is up to you what you do or don't print every month; however, most reports (e.g. Client Sales) will not be available to give you the same information after you have performed a Period End. The Period End checklists have
hundreds of reports listed to print -- do I really need to print them all?
The checklists have been created as a guideline for you; you can print as many or as few of these reports as required. However many of them will not be available for printing should you require them at a later stage; therefore we urge you to be careful in selecting the reports you don't wish to print. For example, if you are required to produce the Aged Trial Balance for the bank each month, and you don't print it at the time of your period end, then when you do print the report you will find that this month's receipts and invoices are also included and that your ageing is wrong (e.g. the current sales are now in month one). |
