Sage Re-Branding Rolls Out: Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 Are Now Sage 100 ERP

May 15, 2012 by Wayne Schulz

Starting May 17, 2012 Sage will rebrand many of their products with a new common identity. This means that Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 will begin to be rebranded as Sage 100 ERP. The full switch to new product names is scheduled for November 2012.

The following new names will be in effect for Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200:

Sage ERP MAS 90 becomes Sage 100 ERP Standard

Sage ERP MAS 90 Online becomes Sage 100 ERP Online

Sage ERP MAS 200 becomes Sage 100 ERP Advanced

Sage ERP MAS 200 SQL becomes Sage 100 ERP Premium

Sage 100 ERP Roadmap Updated – April 2012

April 17, 2012 by Wayne Schulz

Sage have just updated the roadmap for Sage 100 ERP (Formerly Sage ERP MAS 90, MAS 200, MAS 200 SQL) as of April 2012. This document provides general guidance (subject to change) on expected new features and overall product direction for the Sage 100 product line.

Some observations on future direction:

Expect the following overall development cycle:

Two of the bigger changes may be the addition of Sage 100 ERP Shipping my SmartLinc. This replacement for the prior Starship solution (still supported independently by V-Technologies) features a completely web based on-premises and cloud based shipping solution. Complete carrier and shipping support for US and Canada, rate shopping, email notifications and Bill of Lading (BOL).

Integration of SmartLinc is via the Business Object Interface.

Also expected is a Sage ERP Payroll module for SQL. This standalone payroll module will integrate only to Sage 100 Premium (fka Sage ERP MAS 200 SQL).

Sage Payments via Sage Exchange is slated to play an even bigger role in the processing of Sage 100 ERP credit card transactions. Payment data is removed from the software and instead stored in the Sage vault for tighter security and easier compliance with what seem like ever changing credit card processing rules.

Sage ERP MAS 200 SQL Overview and Available Modules

November 3, 2010 by Wayne Schulz

Last week I picked up on a Tweet from Alok Tyagi who is the VP of R&D for Sage North America and responsible for their mid-market enterprise products. He announced that MAS 200 4.5 RDB (aka MAS200 SQL) has been RTM.

RTM is not-so-secret code for “Release To Manufacturing” – aka being done and ready to ship.

In honor of the RTM of Sage ERP MAS 200 SQL v4.5 – Sage has issued a one page capabilities brochure that officially outlines the modules which will be available in the SQL release.

As expected the available modules include those from Sage which are already at the 4.x standards. The complete list is:

eBusiness Web Services
Paperless Office
Visual Integrator
Bar Code

2009 IRD (Interim Release Disk) for Sage MAS90 and MAS 200 Payroll due soon

March 27, 2009 by Wayne Schulz

Looks as if there will be an Interim Release disk coming for each of the supported versions of Sage MAS 90 and 200 (and SQL). This will be in addition to the Service Update that was released on March 26 and included fixes for the Payroll 941 form changes and New Jersey payroll tax changes.

Some users had noted that they were unable to load a full service update due to the existence of third party enhancements which may require customization prior to loading a full service update.

The Interim Release Disks (there will be separate ones for the 2009 941 tax form as well as the NJ tax law) will first be available for the newest versions of Sage MAS 90 and 200 with releases for older versions following.

When available these IRD (Interim Release Disks) will be posted in the Sage Online Support Services (SOSS ) area.

Anyone needing to file immediately (and who is on version 4.3) can use the new integrated electronic tax filing that is included with the latest version of Sage MAS 90 and 200.
