Point of Sale
Pastel Point of Sale (POS) is an affordable, simple and secure retail solution. Powerful, yet easy to set-up and operate, Pastel POS is keyboard friendly for fast processing. Simple screens and large display areas make this cashier-based system ideal for any till point. Pastel POS does not work as a stand-alone module. In order to run Pastel POS you will require Pastel Xpress or Pastel Partner.

Multi-Currency
The Pastel Multi-Currency module allows you to define a currency for each customer, supplier and bank account. It is fully Euro compliant and supports European Union processing.

Receipting
Pastel Receipting is a specialised add-on module that allows you to enter data once in order to process and print receipts. You can do this without having to use your cash book. Once you are ready, Pastel Receipting will automatically move the receipts into your cash book for you.


Multi-Warehousing
Together with the Pastel Partner Inventory module, the Pastel Partner Multi-Warehousing module allows you to set-up and use multiple stores or warehouses. Working with multiple stores is almost identical to working with normal inventory. The only difference is that each time you want to access an inventory item, you specify the store in which the item exists

Business Intelligence Centre - Standard & Advanced
Pastel’s Business Intelligence Centre allows you to analyse any aspect of your business, including financial, sales, inventory and purchasing reporting, as long as the information is stored in an accessible database. It dynamically links to Microsoft Excel where your information can be viewed and manipulated to give you greater insight into your business. You can either utilise many of the Business Intelligence Centre’s standard reports or create your own - either way you’re set to go beyond accounting.

Bill of Materials
With the Pastel Partner Bill of Materials module you can create bills of materials or kit item codes with an unlimited number of components. For example you can use three additional user defined costs such as labour, overheads and buy-outs. When you manufacture you can remove component items and create manufactured items. This module will operate if you have purchased the Pastel Partner Inventory module.

Time & Billing
The Pastel Partner Time and Billing module allows you to bill your employees’ time to your customers. Simply fill out timesheets for your employees and charge your customers via activities. The activities that you create are the services you sell to your customers

Serial Number Tracking
Pastel Partner Serial Number Tracking allows you to track items from the moment you purchase or manufacture them to the time you sell them. You can even track the item for warranty purposes should it be returned to you for repairs.

Customers
Pastel’s flexible customer account setup allows you to configure parameters per customer. For example, you can set individual trading and settlement terms, select the e-mail and/or print option for invoices and statements. Each customer can have multiple delivery addresses and user-defined fields. Create as many customers as you need - Pastel’s high performance database won’t slow you down as your customer base grows.

The ‘Block Assistant’ allows you to manage your customers and suppliers and ‘block’ them based on predefined criteria. Simply select the criteria, for example by payment terms, overdue days or overdue amounts, and Pastel will take care of the rest.

Multi-Period
The General Ledger stores 2 years of data. Accounting periods can however be ‘blocked’, preventing transactions being processed to those periods which have been ‘closed’. Pastel Partner gives you the flexibility of being either period or date driven.

Period 13 Processing
Pastel allows you to use the 13th period to enter transactions for the next year. When you process the Year End, the system transfers all period 13 transactions into the first period of the next year.

Invoicing
Pastel allows you to enter invoices in a logical and intuitive manner. Save time, ensure accuracy and control back orders by linking quotations and sales orders. The ‘Recurring Invoice Assistant’ allows you to adjust selling prices dynamically. If you use this option, the system is able to determine the selling price on a per item basis, using the full selling price hierarchy. These prices are then used instead of the ones on the original recurring invoices.

Suppliers
Pastel Partner’s Automatic Cheque and Remittance Printing facility makes paying your suppliers a simple task. Select a range of suppliers and the payment date. Pastel displays any invoices due for payment in a table. You can edit payment amounts or choose not to pay specific invoices. Pastel automatically generates payments and prints the remittance and cheque for each supplier. In addition, Pastel can automatically incorporate settlement discounts for early payment terms.

Country Specific Registration
Sage Pastel builds functionality into the application as required by many of the countries in which we operate. This functionality is unlocked through country-specific licensing upon registration.
