Service Update 14 replaced with new version that restores Paperless Office features

October 6, 2009 by Wayne Schulz

Did you update and apply the MAS 90 or MAS 200 Service Update 14 released on 9/29/09? If you did, and you’re a Paperless Office user, then run and grab the latest service update.

Confusingly named with the same version (SU 14) but released on 10/2/09 this fix to the fix re-enables printing of paperless office forms.

Apparently the latest 10/2 fix corrects an issue (Resolution ID 514877 Details Here) where the original SU14 caused all forms in the business framework to print as blanks if they were sent to paperless.

Sage MAS 90 Service Updates Now Quarterly

September 7, 2009 by Wayne Schulz

The last service update for Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 version 4.3 was issued 6/29/09. According to several consultants who have contacted us – Sage has told them that service updates will be issued on a quarterly basis instead of monthly.

Service updates for Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 are released for the most current version of the software only (currently 4.3) and contain a bundle of fixes which are self-installing and correct noted issues.

Users of older supported versions of MAS 90 (prior to the current level) will still need to load program fixes individually as the service update bundles will continue to only be released for the current levels.

Please consult with a competent Sage Business Partner prior to installing any service updates. These fixes contain program changes which could cause any enhancements (including Sage’s Extended Solutions) to stop working.

In general we recommend loading service updates for MAS 90 only if you (or your Sage Business Partner) are in the process of logging a support case with Sage or see that a program patch or service update fixes a specific issue that you are experiencing.

In all instances, we recommend you contact your Sage Business Partner for advise on when and how to load any service updates before trying to install them yourself.

MAS90 Purchases Clearing report doesn’t foot in v4.3

Just heard about this issue on Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 and thought it may help someone in a similar situation.

MAS90 Purchases Clearing Won’t Foot

A client (version 4.3) reported to me that when the report did not tie to GL,
they manually added up the totals on the Purchases Clearing report. Their total
differs from the report total (and does balance to GL). I verified by exporting
the report to Excel and running a total. Sure enough, client is right.

Workaround

No KBA. Sage knows about it, but because it hasn’t verified by Engineering, it
is not available on the KnowledgeBase. Workaround is to run the Purchases
Clearing by Product Line report, which produces an accurate total.
