Opera II: A Scalable Solution
Opera II is deployed in more than 5,000 sites in the
UK. The reason is simple – Opera II delivers a
real competitive edge.
A giant leap forward in the functionality and development
of accounting software, this unique financial management
system meets more business requirements than any other,
helping customers to manage their businesses to their
full potential.
There are three variants of Opera II:
These three distinct solutions cater for small businesses
through to large corporate companies with multi-million
pound turnovers.
Opera II Enterprise
Opera II Enterprise core functionality - flexible reporting
and analysis functions combined with innovative alerting
and scheduling tools - gives customers complete control
of their businesses; an intelligent business solution
that allows customers to make informed business and strategic
decisions that directly influence profitability. Opera
II Enterprise offers:
Powerful and Flexible Analysis
Opera II Enterprise can easily and quickly adapt to
customers’ analytical requirements. Multiple dimensions
make it easy to analyse key information, such as expenses
or revenues, by Nominal Account, Cost Centre, Department
or Project. Budgets can be specified at account level
and at each dimension level. Fast, user definable Views
in Nominal, Sales, Purchase and Stock provide customers
with the flexibility to define their own level of analysis
with full drilldown facilities to the underlying transactions
and source documents.
Order Fulfilment, Inventory and Manufacturing
Usually a weak point for many financial management applications,
Pegasus has used its many years of experience in this
area to ensure that Opera II Enterprise has been designed
to simplify control of the supply chain from end to end,
helping customers to control inventory costs and optimise
customer service efficiency. Opera II Enterprise simplifies
the most complex order processing and manufacturing requirements;
delivering fast order entry input, materials tracking
and traceability, back to back order handling, allocation
of stock or assembly kitting and much more.
Payroll & HR
Regular changes in legislation mean that any Payroll & HR
solution worth having must continually evolve to keep
pace; Opera II Enterprise simplifies complex payroll
procedures, and ensures they are performed accurately,
automatically and on time. In addition, the Opera II
Payroll & HR solution has achieved the Inland Revenue
Payroll Standard.
Real-Time Reporting Technology
Opera II Enterprise’s unique and contemporary
instant messaging (IM) framework technology allows SMB
managers to effortlessly create custom scheduled real-time
reports, warnings and tasks for individual or workgroup
distribution on either an automatic or timed basis. Once
configured, these reports and warnings can be delivered
directly to the desktop of designated recipients (including
non-Opera II users) using a simple instant messenger
(IM) styled interface, resulting in discreet pop-up information
tabs, together with variable audible warnings. Unfettered
by congested e-mail inboxes , Opera II Enterprise IM
recipients can manipulate and reliably share critical
business information among colleagues using Chat and
other IM collaboration facilities which complete this
area of capability in Opera II Enterprise.
Sophisticated Financial Reporting
Opera II Enterprise provides secure and powerful read
and write access to the information held within Opera
II via Microsoft Excel. Purpose-built functions allow
dynamic access to data from the Opera II Enterprise modules
to populate Excel worksheets. Multi dimensional analysis
can be performed, by populating data into a data cube.
Plus information, for example, budgets, price lists and
stock adjustments, manipulated in Excel can be automatically
written back into Opera II Enterprise, saving time and
effort.
Much more than an accounting system, Opera II Enterprise
is a comprehensive business solution, providing multi-company
and inter-company financial ledger control with consolidation,
including multi-currency, powerful inventory control,
supply chain management, order processing, manufacturing,
payroll & HR and Business Intelligence tools from
one SMB application suite.
Opera II Enterprise SQL
Essentially Opera II Enterprise running on a Microsoft
SQL 2000 database. Opera II Enterprise SQL is intended
for larger organisations looking for an SQL server solution.
Opera II Small Business
A scaled version of Opera II, designed
to meet the needs of smaller businesses who do not need
the level of analysis and management reporting provided
by Opera II Enterprise. Opera II Small Business includes
all of the standard functionality of Opera II Enterprise
but is scalable to 5 users, 5 companies and 100 employee
records. XRL (Excel Reporting Layer) and Advanced Nominal
Ledger are not available with Opera II Small Business.
