Welcome to the May edition of the CIM Support newsletter
Spring has finally sprung and there’s a lot to celebrate this month, including three Bank Holidays.
Sage 200 Compatibility Checker
We often receive calls where there are problems emailing documents from Sage 200. It may have worked perfectly fine last week, but it’s not working this week. Often it is because you have had an upgrade of Office or a Windows update has been applied. To ensure that you are using a compatible version of Office, please refer to this guide.
You may find it useful to also send this onto your IT Support.
Sage 200 VAT Code Finder
Since Brexit, are you scratching your head wondering which VAT code to use? Help is at hand with this useful interactive guide.
The guide works through Sales and Purchase transactions, whether they are for goods or services, and whether they are UK or abroad.
Report of the Month
Nominal Ledger Out Of Balance
This report can help to identify transactions that may be causing your TB to be Out of Balance. It can be caused by one sided transactions or a transaction that has been posted across two separate periods.
If you would like this report added to your Sage200 software please let us know.
CIM Challenge
Our CIM Challenge for 2023 is to walk 11,072 miles, that’s the equivalent of walking the coastline of mainland Britain.
Whilst we won’t actually be walking the coastline, we will be updating you each month with how many miles we have walked collectively as a company.
During April 2023 we walked 854.74 miles which unfortunately was not enough to hit our target. We have fallen behind by 36.83 miles. We need to walk 959.49 miles in May to hit our target.
Do you have any words of encouragement for us? If so, we’d love to hear them.

CIM Software is fundraising for Alfie’s Wish (justgiving.com)
We hope these guides/articles will be of assistance, however, if you wish to discuss these further, please contact the support team by clicking the button at the bottom of this newsletter.
With Financial Year End fast approaching, did you know that the CIM Support Desk can assist with a back-up of your live data and create a new company (if required) free of charge?
If you would like to take advantage of this, all we ask is that we are given a minimum of two working days’ notice to schedule it in.
Please note this only applies to one data set, multiple data sets would be chargeable and have a longer lead time.
