Timely Tip:  AR and AP Balances Offset 

tips

As we all know there are many terrific features in ALERE. Many times I receive calls from clients that utilize some of these features only occasionally and therefore forget the easy and simple methods of accomplishing a task. One of these tasks is the ability to offset a receivable or a debit memo against a payable or credit memo. This can be done on the AR/Cash Receipts screen by selecting "the include unapproved payables" at the bottom of the screen.  This option allows the payables and debit memos to be listed on the same screen as receivables and credit memos which posts the "payables to" against the receivables.  This a straightforward visual that makes this complex task very easy. The general ledger transaction is automatically made which allows for a complete audit trail.

Need to Log in to your Computer from another location?

How often have you been at home and needed to log into your computer at the office, especially this winter with all of the snow?  Well, I may have the solution and just what you've been looking for!
Recently I was introduced to a program called Log Me In.  It's a simple, secure, and inexpensive way to access your computer literally from anywhere.  After the initial set up, you gain access to your computer as long as the computer is turned on. 

Is it Secure?  YES!  It is even password protected.  Is it Expensive?  NO!  It is free!!  It can't get any better than that now can it?

I encourage you to check it out at www.logmein.com. It only takes minutes to set up!
