Canco Cranes and Equipment LTD is a leading manufacturer of overhead cranes and material handling equipment. For more than 35 years, the North Vancouver company has been engineering, building, installing, and servicing equipment for customers around the world. For more than a decade, Canco Cranes has relied on one ERP solution – Sage 300 (formerly Sage ERP Accpac) expertly supported by BAASS Business Solutions.
Canco Cranes has relied on Sage 300 since it was a DOS product. “When we were preparing to upgrade to the Windows version back in 2002, we engaged BAASS Business Solutions,” recalls Craig Hammond, sales representative for Canco Cranes. “They came in and did a full business assessment. They tailored their proposal to our business needs and showed us where we could go with the product. For the past ten years, we have relied on BAASS Business Solutions to support our system, advise us on its best use, and to keep our system current.”

Skoah is a spa and skincare brand that’s been growing rapidly over the past fifteen years. The Canadian company’s product line grew from five items in 2002 to over 60 in ten years, while the business also opened over a dozen retail spa locations throughout Canada. As Skoah prepared to expand to the United States, it faced major financial management complexities that its QuickBooks accounting software simply could not accommodate.
For example, the company could not integrate its legacy point of sales (POS) system with QuickBooks. As a workaround, the team hired an offshore resource to manually re-enter transactions and journal entries from one system to the next, which cost around $12,000 each year and introduced the potential for human error. Each retail store managed an avalanche of daily journal entries for credit and debit cards, cash, and gift card payments across various membership types. These complicated receivables were only becoming more cumbersome as Skoah’s transaction volumes grew. But most importantly, Skoah needed a less Excel-intensive way to manage its multi-entity consolidations, as well as track its real-time business performance at the individual store level, in order to comply with the reporting expectations of its financing agent, the Business Development Bank of Canada. support. “The truth is, we were drowning in Quickbooks
