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

February 18, 2013 by Wayne Schulz

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.

TIP: Anyone Using Sage Extended Solutions Should Request Updates

October 11, 2011 by Wayne Schulz

Remember that Sage will shortly STOP sending out updated Extended Solution bundles. This will be problematic for ANY customers still using ES on versions prior to 4.4 who also need to add another add-on that requires an updated ES version.

We ran into this with DSD’s IMFX utility which was certified for the latest 4.3 SU and the customer was on SU 14 with two legacy ES.

We also ran into this during payroll year end when Sage pushed out mandatory payroll updates (at least mandatory for any customer who wanted to compute the proper CT withholding) and it required a specific SU level to install. In those cases we were forced to quickly go to Sage and get an updated SU.

TIP: Any customer using Extended Solutions, not on 4.4 and not planning to move to the latest version of MAS soon – should ask Sage for the latest upgrade to their Extended Solutions. Sage is indicating that they will soon “remove the program” that generates these updates and the bundles will not be available.
