eBanking Suite for Dynamics SL
Southern Foodservice Management (MBS Customer),
Birmingham, AL
"The A/P EFT funds transfer by Sandler-Kahne is an excellent product and I recommend it highly. From simple employee expense reports to million dollar payments, the setup and process is very user friendly. The EFT reports are detailed and the automatic e-mail payment notification is a "hit". One of our large vendors needed additional information programmed in the ACH file and the support I received from Sandler-Kahne was beyond my expectations to make sure this was accomplished. Don't miss out on this great addition to your accounting software."
Tommy Parsons
Corporate Controller
Stanley Stuart Yoffee & Hendrix, Inc. (MBS Reseller),
Orlando, FL
"We started using AP Funds Transfer in May of 2002, and we Love It! Our employees submit expense reports on a regular basis, and AP Funds Transfer has made the reimbursement process a breeze. It simplifies bank reconciliation, streamlines the check-cutting process, and cuts the work-time in half. The ‘neatest’ feature is the automatically generated eMail confirmations, which are sent out each time a transfer is completed."
Betsy Gentry
Controller
“As a VAR working with Sandler-Kahne, this is not only a great product to use, but also a great product to sell. It is a top notch package, directly reflective of the type of products and services we’ve come to expect, and appreciate, from Sandler-Kahne Software.”
Reagan Stanley
Chairman/Owner
The American Heart Association (MBS Customer),
Dallas, TX
"We have been using Sandler·Kahne Software’s AP Direct Deposit (EFT) product since 1997, and have found that it is an excellent fit for our purposes. Our need was to promptly pay our employee expense reimbursements as well as efficiently pay the many research institutions we work with. Currently, we are processing over 100 employee expense reimbursements each week with this product. Once each quarter we process over 1500 electronic grant payments to our research institutions via EFT. With a few clicks of the mouse, our processed AP batches are formatted into the ACH format and electronically transmitted to our bank and the ACH network.
Sandler·Kahne Software has consistently provided top notch customer support. Suggestions we have made for improvements in the product have been openly received and included in updated versions."
NOTE: American Heart Association honored Sandler·Kahne Software with their "Vendor of the Year" award for 2000!
Rubin, Brown, Gornstein & Co. LLP (MBS Reseller),
St. Louis, MO
"Becoming a reseller of a product that you have no experience with can be a little unnerving. However, Sandler·Kahne made this process stress free as they have been accessible and helpful in helping their partners install and gain knowledge of the software. The installation guide is concise and well written as is the users guide. They have made pricing the product correctly easy as well.
I believe that our clients will notice the level of professionalism and attention to detail within the software just as we have noticed the same in our dealings with Sandler·Kahne. We are glad we have decided to align ourselves with a organization such as Sandler·Kahne Software."
Bill Jones
Hitachi Metals America, Ltd. (MBS Customer),
Purchase, NY
"Hitachi Metals America, Ltd. has been using the Sandler Kahne Electronic Funds Transfer module now for over two years. We use it to pay major vendors and employee expense reports, both critical business functions. Since installation we have issued payments for hundreds of millions of dollars through the system without any problems. Both vendors and employees are now getting their money on a more timely basis and are pleased with the system.
Our accounts payable team loves it, it's easy to use and it works flawlessly. The installation was a snap for anyone who is technically competent on the Solomon architecture and the documentation is clear and unambiguous.
I completely recommend this program to any Solomon user considering implementing EFT."
Stuart Kirk
Vice President, Information Technology
A NY Healthcare Company (MBS Customer),
Long Island, NY
"After a brief trial period we began direct deposit (EFT) payments in September of 1997. Presently we offer direct deposit to our employees and a select few vendors. With the direct deposit option we have been able to significantly reduce the turnaround time on employee reimbursements. Unlike regular checks there is a minimal amount of clerical work required for direct deposit payments. The time consuming check distribution process has been eliminated (bursting, folding, stuffing, sealing, mailing). More importantly we have received a great deal of positive feedback from employees who are receiving their payments faster.
Support for the program has been refreshingly prompt and efficient. We are very pleased with Sandler·Kahne Software, their product and service."

American Capital Strategies (MBS Customer), Bethesda, MD
"The Positive Pay product allows us more security with processing checks and the APEFT module processes payments seamlessly. Because the product is integrated with SL, it is easy to train and use."
Steven Rondeau

"As always, it is a pleasure to work with Sandler Kahne Software, Inc. Their products work! And they are always very supportive in working through questions and issues."
Lars Leibkuchler
Financial Systems Consultant
Intercollegiate Studies Institute Inc. (MBS Customer)
" We currently are using the APEFT module of the eBanking Suite. We have switched approximately 85% of our vendors to EFT and therefore, reduced our workload and costs of supplies and postage tremendously."

Project Resource Estimating & Planning (PREP)
New Vision Consulting Group, Inc. (MBS Reseller),
Edmund, OK
"We implemented Sandler·Kahne’s PREP module for our internal organization. This software tool was the solution we have been waiting for to help us eliminate the frustration of scheduling our consultants. Since we implemented this module we have seen our consulting revenue as well as our employees’ time become much more predictable. It's great that our consultants know where they are going to be for the next several weeks. The scheduling function allows us to plug in work based on who is best suited for the work as well as who is available. Prior to PREP this was done by “gut feel”, rather than true information. We have made PREP the core of our internal system to help our business run more smoothly. We are really excited that Sandler·Kahne developed this module. It's as if they developed the program with us in mind."

Project Work Order (PWO)
ExhibitOne Corporation (MBS Customer),
Chandler, AZ
"Sandler*Kahne's Project Work Order has been a critical piece of our Solomon solution. Inventory planning and control is absolutely essential when it comes to maximizing the profitability of our projects. The WIP Tracking functions have saved me a bunch of time and made my life a whole lot easier. The Project Series is the cake, but PWO is the icing."

Shop Floor Control (SFC)
Matrix Packaging Machinery, Inc. (MBS Solomon Customer),
Saukville, WI
"Sandler*Kahne's Shop Floor Control module has proven to be a critical means to leverage the power of the Solomon Work Order and the Microsoft Solomon platform in a manufacturing environment. If capturing labor and WIP data real-time is important, SFC is the ideal solution."
Marc Willden
Principal
SVA Consulting, Inc. (MBS Reseller),
Madison, WI
"The Shop Floor Control module from Sandler Kahne Software is one of the best modules I have seen developed in a long time and provides the last, critical piece needed to let Microsoft Solomon IV compete with any of the mid-market manufacturing solutions. SFC offers very deep and flexible functionality; the scheduling and inquiry capabilities alone are comparable to those found in high-end systems. Coupled with the efficient inventory control and automated workflow of the order management, work order, and inventory replenishment modules, Solomon IV provides a powerful solution that should be on the short list of every prospect in the manufacturing sector."

Re-View, Advanced Event Log Viewer
PM Hospitality Strategies, Inc. (MBS Customer),
Washington, DC
"The Re-View tool is a very slick enhancement to an overlooked Solomon function. I love being able to find a specific log entry without scrolling through dozens of other entries in the event log list. I have made an additional contribution to the Red Cross. Keep up the good work!"
Randy Andrews, CPA
Financial & Systems Analyst
Directory Distributing Associates, Inc. (MBS Customer),
Bridgeton, MO
"This new event log viewer is great! I was able to clean up over 2000 old event logs in about 10 or 15 minutes with the help of this tool. Where do I send the check?"
Rick Weule
Accountant
Intellitec Solutions, LLC (MBS Reseller),
Wyomissing, PA
"The Re-View product is a definite improvement over the standard Solomon event log viewer. So much so, we plan on showcasing it next month to our clients as yet another add-on from Sandler Kahne software we feel they can't live without.
This next time we plan on introducing them to Re-View and some of the value it will add for them. Just explaining what the Process Screen IDs are alone adds great benefit; let alone being able to sort by module, filter by date and preview the logs.
All VARs and Customers should get to know Sandler*Kahne's products as they provide excellent ROI and feature set to the Solomon system. We are very proud to be offering their products to our clients and highly recommend Re-View."
Kevin Baum
Senior Consultant
MicroComputer Resources, Inc. (MBS Reseller),
Ft Lauderdale, FL
"Rick and Tim did it again. They continue to contribute to the overall strength of the Solomon community with the introduction of Re-View. This utility is a must have for most Solomon sites. As an organization, Sandler*Kahne has been a pleasure to work with and they have wonderful software to boot. If you are a MBS Solomon Partner, you should take a close look at all of their products. You won’t be sorry."
Paul Fountas
President
Progressive System Solutions (MBS Reseller),
Orlando, FL
"The Re-View product functions well and appears to have taken into consideration the way that users really should be using the event log viewer screen; it is well-designed and well-implemented. The installation was simple and ran without errors on both our versions of Solomon (v5.5 and v6.0)."

MBS Solomon Manufacturing Workshop
Here's what some of the past attendees have to say about the class:
“As a Microsoft Business Solution's Solutions Specialist, I have had the opportunity to be both a student and presenter in many training sessions related to Manufacturing, Distribution and related Supply Chain Management training sessions for all MBS products i.e. Axapta, Great Plains, Navision and Solomon. I would strongly recommend attending Rick Sandler's 'Solomon Manufacturing Workshop' to any MBS Partner that is seriously pursing manufacturing as a vertical R-E-G-A-R-D-L-E-S-S of which product line they represent.
While Rick’s ‘brand’ focus is appropriately focused on Solomon, attendees will learn and/or obtain a great refresher on manufacturing concepts (which are applicable to many of the MBS brands). Besides that, you will come away seeing where Solomon, with selective ISV add-on’s, can be combined to provide an excellent solution for manufacturers. This class is definitely a ‘must attend’ for anyone interested in learning more about Solomon and manufacturing alike.”
Richard G. Dressell Jr., CPIM
Microsoft Business Solutions Specialist, Gulf States SMS&P
(Sadly, Dick passed in mid-2004. He will really be missed!)
“I’ve taken both classes twice, and each time I’ve learned not only more about the flexibility of the product, but its application to implementing value-added solutions in the manufacturing environment. I recommend attending the class for anyone who is interested in better serving their clients and the industry as a whole.”
Kerry E Pate
Lighthouse Group
Microsoft Gold Certified Business Solutions Partner
“I found the Manufacturing Workshop to be extremely informative and well worth the time and cost. By the end of the course I felt that I had a solid foundation of knowledge of how Solomon can be implemented in a manufacturing environment.
The breadth of features and processes have been well thought out and implemented in a manner that would be very appealing to most manufacturing environments. I also was impressed with the scalability of the product. I learned that with the ability to mix and match Bill of Materials, Work Orders, Project Work Orders and Shop Floor Control modules you can match the features with a client's specific needs in a cost effective manner.
The classroom environment was very conducive to learning. The instructor was very knowledgeable about not only the software but also the real world issues and applications. Students were encouraged to ask questions. The instructor was always willing to dig into a student's question or issue in detail and then step back and explain the overall issue and solutions to the rest of the class. This really allowed me to understand the product and see real life examples of how it can be implemented.
I would say that the course is a MUST for any reseller who has a current or potential manufacturing client. I highly recommend this class!”
Tim Malia

(also Certified MBS Instructor)
“The Solomon manufacturing series, including the Shop Floor Control module from Sandler*Kahne, are hidden pearls. This class helped open my eyes about the power and flexibility built into these modules. This class made it clear to me that I had been walking away from many light manufacturing prospects because of product ignorance. I thought I understood these modules before the class. Truth be known, I only understood a small portion of the flexibility and power of these modules, which are a great fit for many manufacturers.”
Jeff Cozens
President
Systematic Solutions Inc.
“Microsoft Business Solution partners who don't think of Solomon as a manufacturing solution will be pleasantly surprised by both the workshop and Sandler*Kahne's manufacturing solutions. Rick Sandler knows Microsoft Solomon Manufacturing inside and out. He has a wealth of real world manufacturing knowledge as well as great stories that make the class invaluable. This workshop will open your eyes to the many light manufacturing opportunities MBS partners may have been missing in the past. I have attended a lot of workshops in the past and this is one of the best.”
Dale W. Schlagel
Microsoft Business Solutions Technical Specialist, South Central, SMS&P
“Fast Paced Hands-On Classroom Experience - Just right for people like me that cannot waste time on the fluff. I recommend the class.”
Scott Caudle
ePartners
Feb 2003 Class Alumni
“The workshop Rick taught in Dallas last August (2003) was excellent. I appreciated the way that he interacted with the class, discussing actual issues some of us were facing and incorporating them into the material being presented. His obvious knowledge of the products created a more conversational teaching atmosphere as opposed to the type of instructor (which we've all experienced) that stands up there and reads from the manual. It was also great to meet and get to know some of the other Solomon VARs around the country.”
Carl C. Applegate
Principal/COO
Triadix, Inc.
“I highly recommend this course for any MBS Partner interested in implementing the Solomon IV Manufacturing modules including the Work Order and Bill of Material modules. This course provided me with the appropriate knowledge to successfully implement the Work Order and Bill of Material modules in a light manufacturing environment. The instructor, Rick Sandler, teaches the course from a technical and a “real world” perspective based on his extensive manufacturing experience as well as countless years working with the Solomon product line.”
Bill Van Cleave, MBSC Consultant
“This is what you wish all training classes were like. Having worked in the industry for many years, and developing most of the software discussed in the class, Rick is able to bring an unparalleled level of real world experience to the classroom. Highly recommended!”
Kevin Kueny

“The MBS Solomon Manufacturing Workshop fundamentally changed the way I approach manufacturing prospects and clients. Now I can show my clients how to use these modules to help identify how they are doing in the manufacturing process, and whether or not corrective actions are needed before it's too late. This training course is intensive but worth it.”
Fabrizzio Cicenia
MCP, SCSE, SCFS
TECNOAV
“I found this class to be informative, helpful, reinforcing and valuable. Being able to discuss what-if scenarios and off-the-beaten-track situations in class, along with finding creative solutions for clients' special needs, is very educational and rewarding. Having after-class support from Rick is most appreciated, too. I was really pleased to learn that the Solomon Manufacturing solution offers a wide scope of functionality.”
Susan Taylor Altman
SA Consulting
Raleigh, North Carolina
“The MBS Solomon Manufacturing Workshop provides great insight into MBS Solomon’s capabilities in addressing the manufacturing market space. Rick Sandler and his team’s professional, hands-on, and technical mastering of both, manufacturing and Solomon’s modules made it a worth while training experience. I would recommend anyone looking to get into the Solomon manufacturing space or looking for alternative manufacturing solutions.”
