This past week I was asked if it was possible to upgrade a very early version of Sage 100 (previously known as MAS 90 or MAS 200) from a level as early as 3.71 to the current version which is Sage 100 2016.
In short, the answer is usually yes.
Here are the details that can help you decide if you can directly upgrade from an older copy of Sage 100 ( MAS90):
- MAS 90 is now referred to as Sage 100 Standard
- MAS 200 is now referred to as Sage 100 Advanced
- MAS 200 SQL is now referred to as Sage 100 Premium
- Sage 100 Standard may migrate from 3.71 directly to 2016 without a problem (you will need to be using 3.71 as the starting point)
- Sage 100 Advanced may migrate from 3.71 directly to 2016 without a problem (you will need to be using 3.71 as the starting point)
- Sage 100 Premium may migrate from 3.74 to 3.71 Providex which is possible with a tool provided by Sage. Essentially this downgrades your data files to Providex. From there upgrade to Sage 100 Standard 4.4 and finally Sage 100 Premium 2016.
