    Any document shredding service recommendations?

    Hi all - I've a one-off document shredding requirement. It's about 7 bags of stacks of paper about 70-80cm high. I either hire an industrial-strength shredder and get a temp in for a few days or pay someone to take it all away. Taking it away seems like the better solution to me - any...

    kent white van men?

    Cheers guys. Spoke to Dash and they seem pretty good. The cost of delivery with them is almost the same as what we were doing before - hiring a truck and driving it up there ourselves, which not to mention the hours involved, is an enormous pain in the arse for such a small company as we are...

    white van man courier service in Kent/South London

    Hi all, Any of you guys recommend a good courier service - white van man style - in the mid-north Kent/South London area. We're using Tufnells at the moment and find them pretty good value, but have had a few packages been roughed around. We're sending out quite large quantities of boxes a...

    Costing for products + pushing for more business

    Cheers man! No you were right in the first place, I was thinking about removing the discount from the regular orders and moving it to the internet. In terms of the customers paying early, I guess that could be a case of me checking bank statements, but I'm not sure I want the added...

    Costing for products + pushing for more business

    Bridges - I'm aware of that, but the issue with the early payment is that at the moment customers aren't paying the payment early. Hence, the website - payment is made instantly and there's no risk of the late payment going through. Not having the 5% discount is also a step towards upping our...

    Costing for products + pushing for more business

    Hey all at UKBF, I've recently inherited a family business and a part of it manufactures and sells fishing tackle. Prices haven't been put up for years and there's been no push for new customers for longer. We're aiming to sell mostly to trade: shops and distributors. I'm also thinking about...

    Import to Sage Line 50 using Access

    Aaaaaaah now that's clear. I was unsure as to what the reference was. There's a field in the invoices in Sage where you can place the PO number of the customer - so I just assumed it was that. So thanks for that. Actually what about the 'order' field - don't see that in there... J

    Import to Sage Line 50 using Access

    aaah ok, thanks again! I'm going to be moving all the invoices from Sage to Access so I guess I'll set up the autonumber as the invoice numbers imported from Sage. Then as they start going back across to Sage if that Reference is the Sage autonumber then it doesn't need to coincide as long as...

    Import to Sage Line 50 using Access

    Aaah that's brilliant. One other thing I was thinking about - what about the invoice numbers? I take it they're generated by the Sage program as you import them? This brings up the question of how to reconcile the numbers between the access program and Sage. It would probably be quite...

    Import to Sage Line 50 using Access

    Funnily enough I'm right in the middle of this too. Thanks a bunch for the info about the invoice import. What about importing invoice details? Come to think of it, is it necessary? We sell a range of products, but if I'm keeping track of them in my Access database, do I need to enter the...
