How To Change The From Address For Sage 100 ERP Paperless Email Delivery

April 17, 2014 by Wayne Schulz

Issue:

Is there any way to have the FROM email address be based on the person sending the email? Sending SO quotes is a big issue. My experience has been it always shows the email set up in company maintenance or form maintenance.

Resolution:

There’s a button! It appears when you select anything with Electronically deliver. You can manually change the from address right there.

FYI, this will only work on e-mail systems that allow spoofing.

If you are using paperless office – in the print window – when you select to electronic deliver there is a Paperless office button that illuminates right of that field and thought you could go in there and change the email address that it sends from – the one in company maintenance is just for authenticating.

Invoice payment selection register goes to Paperless when printed from the “Invoice payment selection” screen but not the “check maintenance”

May 7, 2012 by Wayne Schulz

Earlier today we had some discussion on our 90 Minds group chat about an issue where the paperless office feature of Sage 100 ERP would work in one instance of printing an invoice payment selection register direct from the menu but not when using a shortcut from the check maintenance screen.

Jeff Schwenk replied that the easy fix is as follows:

Use data file display and maintenance (be sure to backup first as these changes are all “behind the scenes” and NOT reversible):

Paperless Print Settings.

To modify report so that it launches paperless printing, modify field 18 in SY_Task.m4t.
Journals/Registers – 1
Report Viewer – 5
Period End – 6
Invoice Printing – 2

Your paperless invoice payment selection register should now print to paperless in both of the above situations.

Best Article on Solving Sage ERP MAS90 Paperless Office Printing Problems

October 21, 2011 by Wayne Schulz

I just hung up the phone with a customer whose MAS90 system would no longer print to Paperless Office after upgrading their workstations to Windows 7.

This in my experience is usually solved by:

Re-running workstation setup
Re-running the PDF Install Program

1. Manually install the Amyuni PDF Converter
– Go to the MAS90\Home folder and run PDFInstall.exe
2. Go into Start Menu | Printer and Faxes | and search for the Amyuni PDF Converter
3. Rename the Amyuni PDF Converter as Sage PDF Converter
4. Go into MAS | File | Run and enter PL_ADVANCEDOPTIONS_UI
5. Install the converter and test the converter to see if it initialized properly

Though I’ve found in some cases nothing you try works.

Luckily I found this article in Sage’s knowledgebase which solved not only this issue but serves as a nice summary of many other potential fixes.

So if you’re having trouble printing to Paperless Office with Windows 7 or Windows 2008 – be sure to try this KB entry from Sage.

Note: Windows 7 is not supported on any version of MAS prior to 4.30.0.18. This KB only applies to versions released since 4.30.0.17. 4.30 versions require Program Fix LM4046-T, as well (make sure all the instructions on the download page for LM4046 are followed exactly). 4.40 versions require at least Product Update 1, with LM4045-T, or Product Update 2 or above without Program Fix LM4045.

How To Use eFax, Faxaway, MaxEmail and Protus with MAS90 or MAS200 Paperless Office v4.4+

September 26, 2011 by Wayne Schulz

If your company uses faxing with MAS90 Paperless Office you may know that starting with version 4.3 the features of Paperless Faxing were significantly changed. Prior to v4.30 you could use any number of Internet based faxing services such as:

eFax
Faxaway
MaxEmail
Protus

Beginning with MAS90 and MAS200 4.3 your choices were narrowed to any service you like – so long as it was Microsoft Faxing service.

This required (starting with 4.3) users to setup a fax device/modem for use with Microsoft fax. Some users found this cumbersome where their prior method of using Internet faxing was seamless.

While you still can use an Internet based service (simply substituted an email address as directed by the various fax providers) you may find that it’s less convenient for those customers who receive documents both by fax and email.

The quickest solution may be Sage’s old Extended Solution – LM-1033 which they sold until recently and which enabled a more seamless integration with the above Internet fax services.

Sage no longer sells the enhancement directly however you can order the enhancement (presently showing as available at version 4.4 product update 2) directly from DSD Business Systems.

The cost is $ 1, 060 (this includes first year maintenance) and the annual recurring maintenance is $265
