Sage line 50 starts by introducing the principles behind the system - because if you understand how a system works, you will master it more quickly and be more able to sort out any problems later. The book then goes on to demonstrate how to use the various modules and facilities, for day-to-day accounting, for the end of period summaries and reports, and for trouble-shooting and analysis at any time. With its practical approach and clear illustrations, Sage line 50 is an essential resource for any user.
