Reduce data duplication and improve visibility without losing the familiarity of Excel.

Spend less time on data entry

If your teams are spending time rekeying data into Sage from Microsoft Excel, Fusion Excel Connect is a quick and easy option.

Fusion Excel Connect allows your Sage users to enter data into Excel, delve into pick lists, validate that data, and push it into Sage. And all while ensuring your own data governance rules.

Administrator-defined mappings give you complete access control

Track activity through the built-in audit trail, and offer instant data governance feedback

A modular approach offers flexibility and scalability so your solution grows with you

Create and edit data in Excel

Users can work within familiar spreadsheets they use every day. 

Fusion Excel Connect makes the routine entry of data such as account data, sales orders, purchases and stock quick and efficient. It allows users, especially those in finance, to manipulate their data first in the familiar environment of Microsoft Excel and then post it directly into Sage without any rekeying. 

Instant feedback indicates whether this has been done correctly, enabling users who are not experienced in Sage the ability to confidently enter data into the system. Users can also browse data from Sage, such as nominal codes, costs centres and departments, and select and drop it into Microsoft Excel.

Administrator-defined mappings

Administrators are able to control what users can see and do in an easy to use environment. They are responsible for creating the sheet, selecting a range of cells in Microsoft Excel and associating them with fields in Sage. 

Fusion Excel Connect has the intelligence to validate the design to ensure the correct fields have been mapped before it is published to users. Administrators can also define browses to live Sage data and create their own fixed lists of values, restricting what users can browse on. So for example, users can be limited to certain VAT codes, cost centres or a range of nominal codes.

A modular approach

Fusion Excel Connect is modular. Purchase only the sheets that you need now, and if you wish, add more over time.
