There are a number of features that have been added or enhanced upon since Sage Accounts 2009. These enable the user of Sage to implement their work faster, to obtain the appropriate support from Sage if needed; to speedily search through transactions; to quickly print standard documents; and to ensure that the user can lock dates of transactions being processed to prevent historical transactions being entered once reports have been processed and financial periods have been finalised.

There are also significant improvements in the presentation of the chart of accounts which are used to design reports and produce Management Accounts. These Management Accounts can now be used to easily tailor reports to your individual business needs and have become far more user friendly. There is also an addition of a taxation category in the final accounts to assist those who wish to finalise their Management Accounts and produce Final Accounts. Most limited companies will require taxation on ordinary profits to be entered into the Final Accounts to clearly show what profits are left for the Shareholders Fund and Sage Accounts 2012 now has this facility.
