Accredo Mercury and Saturn: modules, fit and capability
Accredo gives you more than just accounting.
It’s a complete business management system, with a wide range of modules that let you handle everything from sales and purchasing to inventory and reporting. Each module is designed to work seamlessly together, so you can run your whole business from one place.
Mercury vs Saturn — which one do I need?
Accredo Mercury is designed for single-location SMEs needing core accounting and inventory, while Accredo Saturn is the flagship system for larger businesses with multiple branches or complex requirements. Both Mercury and Saturn support multi-company consolidation at the General Ledger level, but only Saturn offers advanced inter-branch stock transfers. Both systems use the same underlying technology, making the upgrade path from Mercury to Saturn seamless as you grow.
Does Accredo do inventory and accounting in one system?
Yes, Accredo integrates comprehensive inventory management and full financial accounting into a single, unified software package. This eliminates the need for separate add-ons or manual data syncing between your warehouse and your general ledger. The inventory module provides real-time visibility into stock levels, landed costs, and automated replenishment.
Can Accredo handle multi-warehouse and multi-branch?
Yes, Accredo Saturn is specifically built to manage businesses operating across multiple warehouses, branches, or departments. It enables real-time stock tracking across all locations and automatically handles complex inter-branch transfers and financial consolidations. This ensures that managers at head office have a live view of the entire organisation’s performance.
What modules are available?
Accredo is a modular system consisting of six core areas: Sales, Financials, Inventory, Purchasing, Job Costing, and Automation & Reporting. This modular approach allows businesses to start with the functionality they need today—such as core financials and inventory—and add more advanced capabilities, such as Job Costing, as their requirements become more complex. All modules are fully integrated, providing a single source of truth across your entire business.
Which Accredo Partner should I talk to?
You should choose an Accredited Partner (our Qualified Support People) based on their proximity to your business and their specific expertise in your industry, such as manufacturing or wholesale distribution. Accredo is supported by a nationwide network of independent partners across New Zealand who provide local implementation, training, and ongoing technical support. Selecting a partner who understands your local market and vertical ensures a smoother transition and better long-term software performance.
Much more than just a compliant accounting system, Accredo allows you to work the way you want to. Our software can be tailored to suit exactly the way your business operates – it doesn't force you into a one-size fits all solution.
