In 2015, Innovation Unit implemented Sage 50 as its ERP Financial application to manage core accounting for the UK nonprofit. The deployment supported finance and operations activities across its London and City of London locations, reflecting a small organisation structure of approximately 30 employees.
Configuration centered on transactional modules including sales and purchase invoice entry, accounts payable and receivable workflows, bank reconciliations, journal posting, and purchase order processing within Sage 50. Daily operational tasks recorded in the finance function included inputting sales and purchase invoices to Sage 50, bank reconciliations, journal preparation, purchase order preparation, and general finance administration.
Implementation activity overlapped with the introduction of a Professional Service Automation solution, Kimble, with staff assisting the Kimble rollout while maintaining accounting operations in Sage 50. The finance team collated payroll data and performed payroll input to the finance system, preserving continuous payroll posting and nominal coding within Sage 50 during the concurrent PSA implementation.
Governance and process discipline emphasized reconciliations, journal controls, and procurement authorisation workflows administered through Sage 50 by the Finance and Operations Assistant. This positioned Sage 50 as the central ERP Financial ledger for routine accounting, purchase order lifecycle, and payroll posting at Innovation Unit.
