Perché fidarsi di questa guida
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 è una delle più potenti contabilità applicazioni disponibili oggi.
But most people only ever touch invoices and bank feeds.
Questa guida ti mostra come utilizzare tutte le principali funzionalità.
Passo dopo passo, con schermate e consigli da professionisti.

Tutorial di 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.

Saggio
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.
Guida introduttiva a Sage
Prima di utilizzare qualsiasi funzionalità, completa questa configurazione iniziale.
Ci vogliono circa tre minuti.
Here is what my own first week with the app looked like:

Ora analizziamo passo passo ciascuna fase.
Passaggio 1: crea il tuo account
Go to Sage’s website and click Start Free Trial.
Inserisci il tuo indirizzo email e crea una password.
✓ Punto di controllo: Controlla il tuo posta in arrivo per ricevere un'e-mail di conferma.
Step 2: Open the App on Web or Mobile
Sage runs in any browser, with free apps for iOS and Android.
Accedi con le tue nuove credenziali.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: You should land on the main dashboard.
Passaggio 3: Completare la configurazione iniziale
Inserisci il tuo Attività commerciale name, financial year end, and tax registration details.
Then link your bank so transactions start to flow in.
✅ Fatto: Sei pronto per utilizzare una qualsiasi delle funzioni seguenti.
Come utilizzare i report finanziari intelligenti di Sage
Report finanziari più intelligenti lets you build profit, loss, and cash flow reports in a few clicks.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
Step 1: Open the Reporting Menu
Sign in and click Segnalazione nella barra di navigazione superiore.
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.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: 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.
✅ Risultato: You have a report that shows exactly where the money went.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: Run your profit report every Monday morning, not once a quarter. Small errors are easier to fix while you still remember the transaction.
Come utilizzare Sage Multi-Currency Accounting
Contabilità multivaluta lets you invoice and get paid by customers around the world without manual maths.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
Passaggio 1: Attivare la funzione Multivaluta
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.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: 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.
✅ Risultato: Exchange gains and losses now post to your ledger on their own.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: 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
Gestione dell'inventario lets you track stock levels and keep control over every item you hold.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
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.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: 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.
✅ Risultato: Stock levels now drop and rise on their own as you trade.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: 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
Archiviazione digitale dei dati lets you store receipts and invoices without chasing paper at year end.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
Passaggio 1: Apri l'app mobile
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.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: 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.
✅ Risultato: Every receipt now sits attached to the entry it belongs to.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: 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.
Come utilizzare la riconciliazione bancaria di Sage
Riconciliazione bancaria lets you match your bank lines to your books in minutes instead of hours.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
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.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: 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.
✅ Risultato: Your bank balance and your Sage balance finally agree.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: 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.
Come utilizzare il report di bilancio di Sage
Rapporto di bilancio lets you see a clear picture of what your business owns and owes.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
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.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: Il totale delle attività deve essere pari alla somma delle passività e del patrimonio netto.
Step 3: Compare Two Periods
Tick the comparison box to show last year beside this year.
✅ Risultato: You can now explain any number on the page in one click.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: 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
Sage Copilot lets you ask plain questions about your books and get answers without building a report.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
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.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: Copilot should reply with figures from your own data.
Passo 3: Agire in base alla risposta
Use the suggested chase list or drill into the detail.
✅ Risultato: You get a straight answer without learning report syntax.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: 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
Gestione avanzata dell'inventario lets you handle stock across several locations with batch and serial tracking.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
Step 1: Add Your Warehouses
Open Inventory Settings and create one record per location.
Name each one clearly, such as Shop or Unit 4.
Step 2: Assign Stock to Each Location
Move opening quantities into the right warehouse.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: Each item should show a quantity per location.
Step 3: Set Batch or Serial Tracking
Turn tracking on for items you need to trace.
✅ Risultato: You can trace any unit back to the batch it arrived in.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: 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
Gestione del progetto lets you track cost, time, and profit for each job you take on.
Ecco come usarlo passo dopo passo.
Passaggio 1: Creare un progetto
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.
Ecco come si presenta:

✓ Punto di controllo: 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.
✅ Risultato: You can see which jobs make money and which quietly lose it.
💡 Consiglio da professionista: 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.

Errori comuni da evitare secondo Sage
Mistake #1: Forcing a Bank Match
❌ Sbagliato: Matching a payment to the nearest invoice just to clear the screen.
✅ A destra: Park anything you cannot explain and ask before you post it.
Mistake #2: Skipping the Chart of Accounts
❌ Sbagliato: Dumping every cost into one general expense code.
✅ A destra: Spend ten minutes setting codes so reports give you real clarity.
Mistake #3: Treating Setup as Optional
❌ Sbagliato: Invoicing on day one with the wrong tax rates saved.
✅ A destra: Prepare your tax settings first, because fixing posted invoices is slow.
Risoluzione dei problemi di Sage
