WAP Help and User Guide

1. Installation

To get this application setup quickly and effectively, this section is divided into two sub-sections, covering a basic installation right up until connecting your first Sage Company. With all the options considered this is a large system to configure to specific requirements, but with these guides you should be able to get operational quickly, with a full access admin account, with all licensed modules available and the ability to carry out some test requests, invoice approvals etc. This should allow you to roll out the system across your organisation in a structured manner.

Sicon WAP can be installed onto a server with Sage 200. The installation procedure is available below:

2. Requisitions Module

The WAP Purchase Requisitions module is designed to allow users of the system to raise a purchase request.

3. Invoices Module

4. Expenses module

12. Release Notes

The Release Notes document below shows which release of the WAP system includes which new features and for which version of Sage these will work.

The version number indicated in the WAP Release Notes includes a full release number and a sub version number; e.g. ’6.1′ indicates the full release version number of the software.  Pre-release version builds of the software are available to certain clients requiring new or enhanced features being developed from the wish list.  If these versions are installed on your system, you will see an additional number e.g. 39.113 making up a specific database version and interim build number of 6.1.39.113.

It is unlikely that these features will be documented in this help and user guide until the end of the development phase.
