Sage 200 Approvals

Sicon Approvals is a locally installed, web-based application designed specifically for real-time integration with Sage 200.

Multiple modules are available but you only need to buy user licences once, so the product can quickly become the hub of your remote processing into Sage 200.

PKF Smith Cooper Systems has extensive skills and experience with this product and has successfully implemented it in various application areas including remote Service Management, Schools, Care Homes and even a Zoo!

Crucially, we also support and implement the product fully in house and do NOT back our support or projects off to Sicon as many other Sage partners do.

Sicon Approvals Purchase Requisitions

Sicon Approvals Purchase Requisitions is by far the most popular Sicon Approvals module.

Non-Sage users are able to raise purchase requisitions using Sage 200 suppliers, nominal codes, stock items or free text items, Projects and budgets.

Budgets and nominal codes are allocated per user providing a variance view restricted to that user’s area of the business.

Documents can be easily attached to support the request and can be stored against the PO in Sage should the request be successful.

Once the order is approved the system will then automatically create purchase orders into Sage 200 to be progressed as normal

Sicon Approvals is a fantastic module which in an appropriate environment, can add massive value to your investment in Sage 200.
