one.\u00a0 After copying,      you can make whatever adjustments you need to the new transaction.\u00a0      Transactions that can be copied are Quotes, Sales Orders, Proposals, Sales      Invoicing, Purchase Orders, Purchase Invoices, and General Journal      Entries.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sage      Advisor<\/strong> &#8211; Has been improved.\u00a0 In addition to popping up relevant tips, it now      can link you to more detailed help or videos.\u00a0 And if you are already      comfortable in Peachtree and don&#8217;t need the help, it can be turned off.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sage Peachtree System Check<\/strong> &#8211; Monitors for sufficient free      hard drive space and memory, and shows a warning when you have not backed      up.\u00a0 Also gives convenient access to backup and restore, archiving,      year end wizard, Peachtree updates, and other system related tasks.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Additional Payroll Fields<\/strong> &#8211; You can now have up to 40      employee fields and 40 employer\/company fields.\u00a0 Versions 2011 and      older are limited to 30 employee fields and 10 employer fields.\u00a0 In      addition to allowing more deductions, this will help comply with new      reporting requirements including the Health Care Act of 2010.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Easier Network Installation<\/strong> &#8211; Network installation has      been streamlined and you can now install on multiple workstations      simultaneously to reduce the overall time required to upgrade.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sage Peachtree Business      Intelligence<\/strong> &#8211; This powerful tool is an optional add-on that allows you to leverage the      power of Excel for reporting and analysis of your Peachtree data.\u00a0      This same software from Alchemex has been integrated into many of Sage&#8217;s      products under the name Sage Business Intelligence.\u00a0 A free 60 day      trial with seven prebuilt reports is included with Peachtree 2012.\u00a0      Sage has posted this short YouTube video to give an overview of Sage      Peachtree BI.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Oif4wUqccTc&amp;feature=relmfu\"><strong>http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Oif4wUqccTc&amp;feature=relmfu<\/strong><\/a>Regular price for Sage Peachtree Business Intelligence is $250.\u00a0 But      you can get it for only $100 if you purchase it along with your 2012      upgrade.\u00a0 Peachtree Business Care subscribers will receive Sage      Peachtree BI with their subscription.\u00a0 Peachtree Quantum includes a      Business Care subscription, so Quantum users will also get BI at no extra      cost.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vendor Management Center<\/strong> gives you a convenient,      customizable screen to quickly locate nearly any information related to a      specific vendor.\u00a0 If you are familiar with the customer management      center you already know how this new feature will work and understand how      helpful it can be.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Management Center Enhancements<\/strong> &#8211; Several small enhancements      have been made to all of the management centers that will make them even      easier to use.\u00a0 Changes include automatic totaling of columns, ability      to change the number of lines displayed in each module, and enabling the      scroll wheel.<\/li>\n<li><strong>New My Dashboard Modules<\/strong> &#8211; Quantum users now have 11      new modules (for a total of 46) available for use on the My Dashboard      tab.\u00a0 The new modules are Assemblies Built\/Unbuilt, Change Orders,      General Journal Entries, Inventory Adjustments, Item Purchase History By      Vendor, Payroll Entries, Purchases\/Inventory Received, Top Vendors Last 12      Months, Transactions by Tracking Status, Vendor Credit Memos, and Vendor      Transaction Totals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Workflow Automation<\/strong> &#8211; Improvements to the workflow functions in Quantum include: the ability to assign a default employee to a tracking status so that changing the status automatically assigns the task to a chosen employee; easily add or change transaction tracking notes from the Customer Management Center; and ability to copy and paste notes from the Track-It window.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peachtree 2012 is almost here.
