Data entry is unavoidable in accounting, but that work doesn’t have to take up so much time. When entering a large number of transactions, switching between your keyboard and mouse can be ineffective. It slow-down your speed of data entry and also breaks your concentration which may cause errors in entry and accounting.
Until the Sage 300cloud 2021 version, keyboard shortcuts weren’t available on web screens. But with the new release of versions, there are a set of keyboard shortcuts available on the screen that will save you time navigating and performing some functions on your Sage 300cloud web screen.
