The COVID-19 pandemic has created an unprecedented focus on working from home as employees are encouraged (or forced) to avoid the office. Do your customers have the tools they need to support operational continuity and maintain staff productivity through this challenging period?

These products from Orchid Systems allow remote workers to access business-critical information from within Sage 300, reducing their reliance on centralized, physical repositories and documentation. 

  • Notes automatically displays information where and when it's needed, linked to specific Sage 300 screens or field values. Say goodbye to monitors plastered with personal reminders, or thumbing through operations manuals.

Gearing up for Remote Working

  • Document Management Link provides Sage 300 users with context-sensitive access to relevant documents (e.g. POs, Invoices, Contracts), or other artifacts like emails and email attachments.
 
 
 
  • Introducing the Orchid Community: We recently launched a forum for the sharing of ideas relating to Orchid products. Log into our KnowledgBase as normal, and look for the Community link. Steve's welcome post provides more information, including community guidelines.
 
 
 
 
 
I’ve just started using Orchid’s EFT Processing for Payroll to send out T4s by email. It worked PERFECTLY! This will now be my go-to solution for all other clients.  Finally, an 'all-in-one' solution for payroll that doesn’t involve multiple products.  Thank you to the Orchid team for putting our clients’ needs first.
