Zahara is the user-friendly add-on for Sage 200 that helps control costs and pay suppliers more easily with less friction. We take the clunk out of your payables process.- An audit-trail behind every purchase request

If you run Sage 200 for the advanced reporting and capabilities, as opposed to the stock module and manufacturing, then Zahara may well suit you. Our strength is with multi-site organisations or non-stock organisations that wish to distribute buying out to their colleagues with controls and validations on purchasing. Providing the users with a login for Sage would be overly complicated and unnecessary, whereas Zahara can be accessed in a controlled way on any device.
Why Use Zahara?
Time Saving
Multiple research institutions, including Ardent Partners, have concluded that companies who automate can process invoices 81% faster than those who don't. With Zahara, we take this a step further. We have made it possible for all four of the key accounts payable components to work smoothly and effectively all in the same app. This both simplifies and hugely speeds up the process, without compromising on functionality or accuracy.Take Back Control
You can now have control over your costs before you commit to spending. Set strict budgets for particular departments and use multi-step approval workflows to decline, amend, or approve purchase orders. You no longer have to leave your accounts to the mercy of human error. The in-built OCR will automatically read and upload your supplier invoices, you can sit back and watch.Growth-Focused
Zahara doesn't become redundant as you grow. You can add more users as your team expands, and the system will be able to handle and process invoices where they would normally overwhelm a standard finance team. By taking care of repetitive tasks like keying in invoices, you will be left with more time for financial strategy and planning so you can be ready for whatever life throws at your business.Integration Mapping
