Home > Products > Releases > Adagio FX New Features

Version: 8.1B

Compatible with QuickBooks 2008. The Use Class as Department feature will only work reliably with QB Enterprise.

Compatible with Simply Accounting 2008.

Compatible with Microsoft Office Accounting 2007 and 2008, Professional editions. (FX is no longer compatible with Microsoft Small Business Accounting 2006).

Compatible with Adagio Ledger 9.0A. However, FX only retrieves current and 1 year prior, although Ledger supports multiple prior years. FX 9.0A will support multiple years and will be able to retrieve multiple years from Ledger. Fiscal period 14 in Adagio Ledger 9.0A is added to the last fiscal period in FX to maintain integrity.


And these improvements were made in earlier releases...

The 8.1A (2007.08.24) release of FX only retrieved from QuickBooks Enterprise. When retrieving from non-Enterprise versions you received the message "[QODBC] Only Licensed for use with Enterprise Version. Please contact your dealer for an upgrade." FX now works with all non-Enterprise versions and an upgrade to QODBC is not required.

On a newly created dataset the sample specifications were not created and the default Chart of Accounts, Account Groups, Departments, and Statement Groups were not initialized in the Financial Reporter.

Compatible with Windows Vista and Adagio Lanpaks V8.1A. All Adagio modules are now signed with a Verisign digital certificate, and Help files are now "CHM" format and installed on the local workstation. Alt-tab displays the Adagio screen, rather than the Adagio module Icon when switching between tasks under Vista.

SmartFinder can now search on multiple criteria. Select up to five separate rules using "AND", "OR", "AND NOT" and "OR NOT" conjunctions between rules. Use SmartFinder to easily create mailing lists and simple reports. Sending a SmartFinder result list to Excel has been improved, with better formatting of dates and numbers.

Screen displays have been made easier to read, with the font changed to Tahona and disabled text displayed in blue.

WebSafe integration under File | Backup allows secure, offsite, automatic backup of your accounting data to the web, (optionally) each time a backup is made. Full details about WebSafe can be found here.

Active Users function in the Help menu lists other users in Adagio FX and other Adagio applications for the company you have open.

Improvements made to the retrieve from QuickBooks 2007 (US version) when using Classes as Departments.

Retrieving classes from QuickBooks now supports sub-classes. Classes and sub-classes are now automatically available for departmental reporting and analysis. (Some financial statements may need minor modifications as a result of this improvement.)

Compatible with QuickBooks 2007 and Simply Accounting 2007. Use the most up to date versions of these two popular accounting products with the world's leading financial statement designer.

Retrieve last year's data from Simply Accounting. Specify that you want the current or prior year's data to be retrieved to help in creating year end financial statements if the current data has been rolled forward.

Accounts missing account numbers are now warned about when retrieving from QuickBooks, if you have selected "User defined accounts" on the retrieve dialog.

See all transactions that contribute to a statement value. Select Tx Details from the right mouse context menu to have all the transactions from all the referenced accounts loaded into a grid.

Import statements directly from Excel to the financial statement designer, preserving all the formatting. Use your existing Excel-based financial statement templates to get started using Adagio FX.

A new SmartSheet command, ".ColSpec", allows you to quickly specify or change the amounts retrieved from the general ledger and displayed in a column. New functions have been added for use with .ColSpec feature that allow easy creating of complex formulas to retrieve information from the ledger.

New sample specifications have been added to demonstrate how the .ColSpec feature works.

An easy-to-use AutoSum button has been added to the Format menu. This button makes adding SUMs to your financial statement quicker and easier than ever!

You can now allow users to choose the fiscal period they want when printing Statement Groups.

A new Duplicate Row command makes copying row contents, including formulas, quick and easy!

The functionality in importing statements from ACCPAC Plus has now been enhanced. Such statements are now created as SmartSheets and the import results more closely match the original financial statements from ACCPAC Plus.
