    Questions:

    2. Maybe I missed, but can I setup ONE Template company and then copy/paste to make 50 clients work on same:
    a. G/L accounts numbers and descriptions
    b. Assets types (diff values obviously)
    c. Inventory items (Hospitality industry – Beverages sold)
    d. Service items (Hospitality industry – Accommodation, Meals, Transport supplied)
    Thanks

  15. Good day
    I have started the setup process of our company but should I get all the information from the accountant first before I load the suppliers and customers as well as the financial information.

    How should I go by doing this.

    regards
    Valerie

    1. Zunaid Khan says:

      Hi Valerie

      It is good practice to get all the company setup information first before loading suppliers and customers.

      The full company setup is covered in either the Practitioner or Intermediate courses.

      You can find further details here:

  16. How would you edit the general ledger account to accommodate the clients needs? explaining the general ledge account and sub-account you will create for inventory.

    1. Zunaid Khan says:

      Hi Lebo

      You create various categories / groupings of inventory items (depending on the particular business) and you then link these groups to the different GL accounts / sub-accounts.

      This is covered in detail in the Practitioner or Intermediate course, where we look at how to integrate Inventory into the General Ledger.

      Kind regards

  18. Hi,

    How do I view my company details after creating it?

    1. Zunaid Khan says:

  19. Can you please explain to me step by step how do I process opening balances in pastel?

    1. Zunaid Khan says:

      Hi Ally

      This is a multi-step procedure which first involves bringing on the Trial Balance and then bringing on detailed customer, supplier and inventory balances using separate journals. There is also a procedure you need to follow to bring on the cash book and the bank reconciliation.

      It is covered in detail in the Practitioner Course so please have a look at that.

      Kind regards
      Zunaid
