How To Edit Lot/Serial UDF Fields in Sage 100 ERP

February 18, 2013 by Wayne Schulz

lotserialudf

Starting with v4.4 of Sage 100 ERP you can create user defined fields (aka UDFs) without needing third party enhancements. What you cannot do is edit those fields from your Sage 100 ERP main panel. If you need to edit the Lot/Serial user defined fields you’ll need to use Business Objects Interface (BOI) scripting or purchase IM Lot/Serial UDF Edit from DSD Business Systems.

This enhancement also has a great manual which will walk you through the UDF setup process step by step – including screen shots of each custom office screen you’ll need to edit.

Last Day For MAS90 Extended Solution Updates is April 29, 2011

April 6, 2011 by Wayne Schulz

Sage have just sent a notice that any users on Sage ERP MAS 90 or MAS 200 version 4.3 who need an Extended Solution updated (often required if  a service update is being installed) to the latest version have until April 29, 2011 to request this.

As you probably know Sage stopped supporting Extended Solution (a catalog of enhancements for Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200) back in 2009. For a period of time they were still allowing some orders of the solutions but had noted that all updates (within the same version) would cease in 2010. That date has been extended through April 29, 2011.

If you are using an Extended Solution on version 4.3 and have a need for an updated version 4.3 copy of that solution (for example if you’re installing a v4.3 service update ) then you should contact your business partner prior to 4/29 and arrange to receive an updated copy of the Extended Solutions.

via Sage:

Last Chance to Request a Customer’s Extended Solutions v4.3-Compatible Extended Solutions Titles. On November 30, 2010, Sage sent you a list of your customers and the Extended Solutions titles they own. Please reference this list and contact the sales advisor team at salesadvisor@sage.com to place your clients’ orders. Sage has granted a grace period to request v4.3-compatible titles until April 29, 2011

Decimal Place Precision For MAS 90 & MAS 200 4.4

September 9, 2010 by Wayne Schulz

Is 4 digit decimal precision too small for your company? With the recent decision by Sage to discontinue Extended Solutions your alternatives are to either live with less precision – or review solutions from third party developers (Extended Solutions Preferred Providers).

DSD Business Systems is one such provider. Last night I noticed they’re offering the following Extended Solutions with no additional upgrade fee (beyond regular maintenance):

BM-1005 – Expanded Mask for Quantity/Cost – $960 (subsequent maintenance = $265)
IM-1114 – Expanded Numeric Mask for Price/Cost/Quantity (subsequent maintenance = $265)
IM-1115 – Six Decimal Precision for Inventory (subsequent maintenance = $265)
PO-1085 – Six Decimal Precision for Purchase Order (subsequent maintenance = $265)
WO-1015 – Extended Decimal Precision in Work Order (subsequent maintenance = $265 )
WO-1016 – Six Decimal Precision in Work Order (subsequent maintenance = $ 265)

DSD Business Systems is also offering the same bundled pricing previously offered by Sage on these Decimal Precision Extended Solution Bundles:

DP-1000 – IM-1114, IM-1115, PO-1085 – $ 2,030 (subsequent maintenance = $535)
DP-1001 – BM-1005, BM-1078 – $1,460 (subsequent maintenance – $265)
DP-1002 – WO-1015, WO-1016 – $1,460 (subsequent maintenance – $ 265)

The following parts are listed as obsolete:

BM-1078 – obsolete as of v4.4 since Bill of Materials for MAS 90 and MAS 200 already uses 6 decimals in v4.4
SO-1160 – obsolete after MAS 90 v4.05

Extended Solutions For MAS 90 and MAS 200 Updated As Of August 2010

August 31, 2010 by Wayne Schulz

DSD Business Systems of San Diego is a Gold Development Partner for Sage Extended Solutions. As such they have access to the source code for the Extended Solutions which Sage have discontinued.

If you’re not familiar with Extended Solutions they are pre-written customizations (sold separately) that once installed work seamlessly within MAS 90 and MAS 200.
For years Extended Solutions were sold directly by Sage and considered to be the “secret sauce” that Sage consultants used when they implemented new systems for customers.

During any ERP software implementation there’s usually a tiny bit of missing functionality that’s needed. For example finding a fixed cost Extended Solution that for example performed ACH Payments for Accounts Payable (not a core MAS 90 feature) was significantly cheaper and easier than hiring a programmer to modify the software to perform that task.

Beginning with version 4.4 of MAS 90 and MAS 200 Extended Solutions will not be sold separately. Instead Sage have taken the list of available solutions and intends to cull out the most popular ones for inclusion in future releases of MAS 90 and MAS 200.
Extended Solutions not selected for inclusion will have their source code made available to a number of select programmers (Preferred Development Partners) so that customers can have their enhancements upgraded.

On August 17, 2010 DSD Business Systems reported their progress on which solutions they’ve already upgraded.

Extended Solutions Recently Released

And they also reported on which solutions are in progress with a “soon to be released” date:

Unincorporated Extended Solutions Stop Receiving Support & Upgrades February 1, 2011

July 26, 2010 by Wayne Schulz

Sage has just issued an update that outlines when certain Extended Solutions that they’ve announced as being added to Sage MAS 90 and 200 will make it into the product.

In addition they’ve indicated that as of October 1, 2010 an additional 24 solutions will stop being sold. On February 1, 2011 the support and upgrades for those 24 will cease.

More information is available from their official statement – which appears to be a draft of one that’s soon to be sent directly to end users.
