What is Sage 100cloud Multi-Bin Management, and do I need it?

by

Who can benefit from a Multi-Bin System? Just about any business who carries inventory.”

– Nicole Ronchetti, DSD Business Systems

For businesses who manage inventory, Sage 100 has much to offer. But one historical shortcoming has been the lack of Multi-Bin Management. Enter Sage 100cloud, where DSD/ScanForce Multi-Bin Basic comes free with your subscription!

Traditional Sage 100cloud allows for one bin location per item per warehouse.

With the free Sage 100cloud Multi-Bin enhancement, you can expand to multiple bins per item per warehouse – all fully compatible with the ScanForce Warehouse Management solutions for Sage100cloud.

What is Sage 100cloud Multi-Bin Management?

Multi-Bin Management allows you to track items across multiple bin locations in Sage without having to use clunky workarounds like creating “dummy” warehouses.

 

READ: Why did Sage add a “Warehouse Status” field in Sage 100?

At the surface, it’s a rather simple idea. Sometimes your inventory won’t fit in one particular bin location and needs to be stored in multiple physical locations within the warehouse. DSD/ScanForce Multi-Bin Basic makes incorporating bin location details right within Sage 100cloud seamless.

If that’s not enough reason for you to start using your free Sage 100cloud Multi-Bin tool, read on.

Don’t have items in multiple bins? That doesn’t mean you can’t benefit from Multi-Bin Management. There are numerous other practical uses in the warehouse.

From tracking items that need inspection before being put on the shelves to storing stock that is reserved for certain customers (i.e. Amazon or Wal-mart), there are many ways that warehouses can take advantage of this technology that gives them greater visibility into their inventory.

Sage 100cloud has the robust functionality of Multi-Bin Basic included, with an option to upgrade to more advanced features for those who need it.

Sage 100 & 100c Registration Keys Now Update Themselves

by

 

I had an upgrade this weekend where the user upgraded from Sage 100 v4.40 to Sage 100 v2016.

I had installed v2016 PU2 and the end user was testing 100c v2016 but had not yet gone live.

While in the process of upgrading (testing, etc) the user chose to migrate licensing from 100 to 100c

Sage (probably Sage Advisor) automatically updated the registration keys which converted the customer from Sage 100 to Sage 100c and also removed licenses and modules they were no longer entitled to.

I think this is normal processing for Sage 100v 2016 going forward.

I’m sure that we’ll learn more about the quirks of how this automatic registration works as we move forward.

For now, take care whenever you migrate to 100c or add/remove modules and know that the keys will likely automatically update and you may not be able to override them.

  3. Select Printer Properties
  4. Open Advanced tab and select Amyuni Document Converter 500
