About creating a company containing no existing company information

When you create a brand new company, not based on existing company information, Sage 100 Contractor creates a new company database with table headings, but no other information.

After creating the new company, you need to enter the following information using windows in Sage 100 Contractor:

  • Enter new company information on the 7-1 Company Information window. You will find it helpful to have the following information on hand:
    • Complete company address
    • License number
    • Tax information
    • Resale number
    • Telephone and fax numbers
    • Email address
    • Direct deposit information, which is the account number, routing number, and the account type.
  • Use the 1-8 General Ledger Setup window in Sage 100 Contractor to set up your accounting structure, fiscal year date, current period, and inventory valuation method (if you have the Inventory Add-on Module).
