Course Information
Course Overview
Competently use accounting software in your work.
Recently (2026 March) added new sections on entering transactions in AP with AR and the GL to follow soon.
Be confident when auditing businesses using Sage 300 formerly known as Accpac.
Be confident when being trained to use any accounting software system and ask intelligent questions that will impress.
This course was developed as a result of my involvement with the preparation of financial statements for a company which was undergoing a statutory audit. I was sought out because of my expertise with the company’s accounting software package – Sage 300. It soon became apparent that as I worked with company staff and the audit team that other auditors and interested persons could benefit from the knowledge shared.
This course is prepared with the general and specific audit objectives for the general ledger, accounts payable and receivables in view and could also aide in the discovery of fraud.
This knowledge put extra cash in my pocket as I worked after-hours assisting the auditors and accounting staff of a company.
After completing this, course auditors will have greater confidence when auditing a client who uses Sage 300 and also know what to expect from a first-rate accounting software package. Workers in the office will be able to provide the auditors with the information they need, thus completing the audit faster thus getting the auditors out of their offices.
Let's dive right in and have a great time while doing so. You will not regret this educational journey.

The sound was very low, even with headphones, so you'd often miss parts of the content and have to rewind and listen again multiple times. Also the examples weren't very clear

Gave an overview of the program but when showing examples didn't actually post and show the consequences of posting. Only example where the instructor followed through on an example was AP write offs and it was very helpful.
