¿Por qué confiar en esta guía?
I’ve used Sage for two years and tested every feature covered here.
This tutorial comes from real hands-on experience, not vendor screenshots.
Where the answer was not obvious, I checked Sage documentation and my own research before writing the step.

La salvia es una de las más poderosas contabilidad aplicaciones disponibles hoy.
But most people only ever touch invoices and bank feeds.
Esta guía le muestra cómo utilizar todas las funciones principales.
Paso a paso, con capturas de pantalla y consejos profesionales.

Tutorial de Sage
This How to Use Sage tutorial walks you through every feature step by step, from first sign-in to the tricks that make you fast.

Sabio
Stop wrestling with spreadsheets at month end. Sage links your bank, reads your receipts, and builds the reports your accountant asks for. Start free and add features as you grow.
Primeros pasos con Sage
Antes de utilizar cualquier función, complete esta configuración inicial.
Tarda unos tres minutos.
Here is what my own first week with the app looked like:

Ahora vamos a repasar cada paso.
Paso 1: Crea tu cuenta
Go to Sage’s website and click Start Free Trial.
Introduce tu correo electrónico y crea una contraseña.
✓ Control: Comprueba tu bandeja de entrada para recibir un correo electrónico de confirmación.
Step 2: Open the App on Web or Mobile
Sage runs in any browser, with free apps for iOS and Androide.
Inicia sesión con los datos de tu nueva cuenta.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: You should land on the main dashboard.
Paso 3: Completar la configuración inicial
Ingresa tu negocio name, financial year end, and tax registration details.
Then link your bank so transactions start to flow in.
✅ Hecho: Estás listo para usar cualquiera de las funciones a continuación.
Cómo utilizar los informes financieros inteligentes de Sage
Informes financieros más inteligentes lets you build profit, loss, and cash flow reports in a few clicks.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Open the Reporting Menu
Sign in and click Informes en la barra de navegación superior.
Pick Profit and Loss to start.
Step 2: Set Your Date Range and Filters
Choose the period you want, then filter by department or tax code.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: You should see live figures pulled straight from your ledger.
Step 3: Save or Export the Report
Click Export to send it to PDF, CSV, or Excel.
✅ Resultado: You have a report that shows exactly where the money went.
💡 Consejo profesional: Run your profit report every Monday morning, not once a quarter. Small errors are easier to fix while you still remember the transaction.
Cómo utilizar la contabilidad multidivisa de Sage
Contabilidad multidivisa lets you invoice and get paid by customers around the world without manual maths.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Paso 1: Activar la función multidivisa
Go to Settings, then Business Settings, then Currencies.
Switch the toggle on and pick your base currency.
Step 2: Add the Currencies You Trade In
Select each currency you invoice or buy in.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: The invoice total should show both currencies side by side.
Step 3: Raise an Invoice in a Foreign Currency
Choose the customer, pick their currency, and send the invoice.
✅ Resultado: Exchange gains and losses now post to your ledger on their own.
💡 Consejo profesional: Let Sage pull live exchange rates instead of typing your own. Manual rates are the top cause of tiny balance differences at year end.
How to Use Sage Inventory Manager
Gestión de inventario lets you track stock levels and keep control over every item you hold.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Create Your Product Records
Click Products and Services, then New Item.
Add a code, cost price, and sale price.
Step 2: Enter Your Opening Stock
Type the quantity you hold today for each item.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: Each product row should show a live quantity in stock.
Step 3: Set Reorder Levels
Add a low-stock number so Sage warns you before you run out.
✅ Resultado: Stock levels now drop and rise on their own as you trade.
💡 Consejo profesional: Group items with a short shelf life under their own category. It takes one minute and saves you from writing off stock you forgot about.
How to Use Sage Digital Record-Keeper
Registro digital de datos lets you store receipts and invoices without chasing paper at year end.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Paso 1: Abre la aplicación móvil
Install the Sage app and sign in with the same login.
Tap the camera icon to capture a receipt.
Step 2: Upload and Read the Receipt
Sage reads the date, supplier, and total for you.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: The expense line should show a small paperclip icon.
Step 3: Attach It to a Transaction
Match the receipt to an expense, then post the transaction.
✅ Resultado: Every receipt now sits attached to the entry it belongs to.
💡 Consejo profesional: Upload receipts the same day you spend. A photo taken in the car beats a faded paper receipt found in a coat pocket in March.
Cómo utilizar la conciliación bancaria de Sage
Conciliación bancaria lets you match your bank lines to your books in minutes instead of hours.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Link Your Bank Account
Go to Banking and choose Connect to Bank.
Pick your bank and approve the integration.
Step 2: Review the Suggested Matches
Sage suggests a match for each imported line.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: The unreconciled count should fall towards zero.
Step 3: Confirm or Create the Missing Entry
Accept the match, or create a new entry for anything unknown.
✅ Resultado: Your bank balance and your Sage balance finally agree.
💡 Consejo profesional: Never ignore a line you cannot explain. Park it in a suspense account and ask your accountant, rather than forcing a match that hides a real error.
Cómo utilizar el informe de balance de Sage
Informe del balance general lets you see a clear picture of what your business owns and owes.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Open the Balance Sheet
Click Reporting, then Balance Sheet.
Set the date you want to view.
Step 2: Drill Into Any Line
Click a figure to see the transactions behind it.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: El total de activos debe ser igual al pasivo más el patrimonio neto.
Step 3: Compare Two Periods
Tick the comparison box to show last year beside this year.
✅ Resultado: You can now explain any number on the page in one click.
💡 Consejo profesional: Check your debtors line before you chase invoices. It shows who owes you money right now, which is faster than a search through emails.
How to Use Sage Sage Copilot
Copiloto sabio lets you ask plain questions about your books and get answers without building a report.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Open Copilot
Click the Copilot icon in the top right corner.
It sits on your dashboard on eligible plans.
Step 2: Ask a Question in Plain English
Type something like which customers are late paying me.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: Copilot should reply with figures from your own data.
Paso 3: Actúa en función de la respuesta.
Use the suggested chase list or drill into the detail.
✅ Resultado: You get a straight answer without learning report syntax.
💡 Consejo profesional: Ask follow-up questions in the same thread. Copilot keeps the context, so you can narrow a wide answer down to one customer or one month.
How to Use Sage Advanced Inventory Manager
Gestión avanzada de inventario lets you handle stock across several locations with batch and serial tracking.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Add Your Warehouses

Name each one clearly, such as Shop or Unit 4.
Step 2: Assign Stock to Each Location
Move opening quantities into the right warehouse.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: Each item should show a quantity per location.
Step 3: Set Batch or Serial Tracking
Turn tracking on for items you need to trace.
✅ Resultado: You can trace any unit back to the batch it arrived in.
💡 Consejo profesional: Run a spot count on ten items each month rather than one huge count each year. Errors stay small and you find the cause while it is fresh.
How to Use Sage Project Manager
Gestión de proyectos lets you track cost, time, and profit for each job you take on.
Aquí te mostramos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Paso 1: Crear un proyecto
Click Projects, then New Project, and name the job.
Add a budget and a start date.
Step 2: Tag Costs and Time to It
Pick the project on every bill, expense, and timesheet.
Así es como se ve:

✓ Control: The project card should show costs building up in real time.
Step 3: Review Project Profit
Open the project report to compare budget against actual.
✅ Resultado: You can see which jobs make money and which quietly lose it.
💡 Consejo profesional: Tag costs as you enter them, never later. A bill left untagged for a week almost always ends up in the wrong job or in no job at all.

Errores comunes que se deben evitar según Sage
Mistake #1: Forcing a Bank Match
❌ Incorrecto: Matching a payment to the nearest invoice just to clear the screen.
✅ Derecha: Park anything you cannot explain and ask before you post it.
Mistake #2: Skipping the Chart of Accounts
❌ Incorrecto: Dumping every cost into one general expense code.
✅ Derecha: Spend ten minutes setting codes so reports give you real clarity.
Mistake #3: Treating Setup as Optional
❌ Incorrecto: Invoicing on day one with the wrong tax rates saved.
