I have a client who runs trips away throughout the year and for preparing reports purposes, I would like to set up each holiday as a different department. The problem is he has purchased Sage Instant which does not seem to have the facility for setting up departments.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to keep the holidays separate to make reporting easier for each one? The only workaround I could think of was to give each one a different nominal code starting with 4000, however there will be at least four or five new nominal codes needed each year.
This is one of the few times when I would prefer to be using Sage 50. One thing I can say about Sage 50 is that it gives me good options for cost and budgeting reporting with the other companies I use it for.
I am not sure what Sage Instant will do, but you could set up codes to separate out your P&L items and then use chart of accounts to create your own P&L which would just pick up these codes?? I use sub codes to keep my NL list tidy
