Sage Software Debuts Sage TimeSheet - MAS 90 Edition

New Integrated ERP Application Incorporates Project Management Directly Into Key Business Management Systems


NASHVILLE, TN -- (MARKET WIRE) -- November 6, 2006 -- From its Sage Summit customer conference, Sage Software announced today they will be releasing later this month Sage TimeSheet - MAS 90 Edition, a comprehensive integrated ERP solution that will enable the automatic transfer of information from Sage TimeSheet into Sage MAS 90 and Sage MAS 200. This new integration facilitates key business processes such as project management, employee time tracking, job costing, accounts payable and receivable, and payroll using a single data entry point.

Sage TimeSheet is a flexible project and resource management application that offers organizations extensive time and expense tracking, resource allocation analysis, and project headcount justification, and can be integrated with other business management applications. Sage MAS 90 ERP and Sage MAS 200 ERP software are widely used business management applications that offer end-to-end solutions to assist professional services and manufacturing and wholesale distribution organizations with automating key procedures and processes, including inventory management, bill of materials and job costing. The integration of these two applications will help organizations lower administrative costs and increase cash flow using functionality such as remote data entry, built-in project and line manager approvals and automated transaction processing.

"Integrating a project and resource management application such as Sage TimeSheet with MAS 90 and MAS 200 will enable small and mid-sized organizations to streamline business processes for more efficient daily operations, and provide these organizations with a greater sense of confidence that they are accessing the most current and accurate information from any area of their business system," said Chris Donie, Sage Software vice president and general manager, Sage Fixed Assets, Time Tracking and Analytics.

Easy to install and administer, Sage TimeSheet - MAS 90 Edition:

--  Eliminates duplicate data entry using single point access through Sage
    TimeSheet which automatically transfers information into Sage MAS 90 and
    MAS 200 modules including Job Cost, Payroll, and TimeCard, as well as
    Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable.
--  Enables remote access for internal or remote workgroups.
--  Facilitates more efficient time and expense tracking and management of
    resources using job and cost codes entered in Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200.
