Just a heads up on an interesting tech topic being discussed over on 90 Minds. In version 4.5 of Sage 100 ERP the time it takes to delete/renumber/merge large numbers of customers is apparently quite daunting.
One of our members is troubleshooting a way to do 20,000 of them which he computes could take 3 months of processing (I’m probably paraphrasing this but it’s a long time).
If you are in a situation where a new or existing customer asks you about renumbering AR customers – keep this speed situation in mind. It’s not something that is really easy to test short of running a trial renumber on a copy of the customer data.
We’ll update you if there is a workaround uncovered
