Opera 3 Finance
Supplier transactions, thoroughly and securely managed from start to finish
Sales Ledger
The Sales Ledger has built-in credit control facilities so that customer account information is all at your fingertips, it makes revenue forecasting easy with the automatic calculation of average debtor days for both individual customers and your entire company.
You can e-mail statements, copy invoices and debtors letters. You can view your sales information in a way that is meaningful to you, as Opera 3 offers views that you can customise. Sales Ledger caters for multi-currency and handles all your customer profiles and trading terms, as well as invoices, credit notes, receipts, refunds and adjustments.
The Retrospective Debtors report in the Sales Ledger produces a list of outstanding customer debts at a date specified, according to the length of time the debt has been outstanding. For example, to rerun your Debtors report at 31 December 2020, you simply enter that date and the report calculates the debtors position at that time. The report can be printed and output to Excel-Sales Ledger.

“As Ibonhart trades internationally, multi currency within Opera 3 is quite an important function for us as it allows us to reconcile on a daily basis with the up-do-date exchange rates” Sheila Austin, Accounts and Payroll Manager

Other applications post to the Nominal Ledger by either batch update or real-time transfer. Even mis-posted nominal journal entries can be reversed and rectified quickly and accurately.
Cashbook
With Cashbook you can post transactions directly from Financials, while the reconciliation function allows you to post unexpected entries, interrogate transactions and save incomplete reconciliations so you can finish them later.
“Cashbook for us has been a real game changer; it saves us an enormous amount of money and also means that we as a business can manage our risk”
Fixed Assets
Keep track of your assets from the minute they become part of your company right until you dispose of them. Opera 3 Fixed Assets will track their depreciation rates and maintain the correct net book value for them throughout their life cycle. It caters for all types of assets, including Finance or Operating Lease and Hire Purchase or Lease Purchase assets.
What’s more, the import routine makes it simple to import existing asset lists from a spreadsheet in bulk.
EC VAT
If you trade within the European Union there are complex VAT rules you have to comply with regarding the importing and exporting of goods. These rules can be hard to follow and failure to comply can result in financial penalties. To help you, these complex rules are automatically built into Opera 3 EC VAT to make it easier for you to trade in Europe.
You can define and maintain the information to produce the EC Sales List (ESL) and Supplementary Declarations (SD), including country codes, modes of transport, terms of delivery, commodity codes and nature of transaction codes for Intrastat purposes. The EC Sales List can also generate an XML upload file for submission via the HMRC website.
If you are using foreign currency accounts, appropriate VAT rate codes for EC sales and purchases can also be set up. This application will then collect the information needed to produce the returns for trading with EU member countries.
