Sage 100

A Bit of a Vent here: Does Sage have any plans to add the ability to update all UDF's with 1 button? Argh.....!!! Why would this be so hard to implement?

TOTALLY agree! It takes SO much time to update them when they are in several entities.

Also, would like to see 'date prompt' by user, rather than Company!

Dreamers!!!

@JimWoodhead It's the weekend, let me live in my Dreamland a little bit more!! Reality will come soon enough!!

I think I ""only"" spent an hour on this last week migrating from 2016 to 2017. It IS a royal PITA to slog through!!! Has it been suggested on the idea website?? Start the thread so we can vote on it...

Should we have to vote on innovative changes?

I just found 1 created over a year ago (by Jeff S (Schwenk?). It has 90 votes. Is there a magical # to get it implemented??

Wow? Getting too old to keep up with what I did yesterday let alone a year ago!! Since I referenced v4.4, I am guessing it was many more moons than just a year ago... apparently, more than 90 need to vote!! Maybe we can press them on that now that @JohnHoyt has his sales for the past year credited! Can you post the link @NancyHanson so we can stuff the ballot box again?

Silly question: why is this being done? I rarely update UDF's manually. If doing a Live migration long after a test, I'll just remigrate the system files to make sure the data dictionary is consistent.

@KevinMoyes brings up a good point, so I started looking at the Upgrade Checklist for 2017. In the 2015 to 2017 and 2016 to 2017, it only mentions: Update customized panels by selecting Custom Office Utilities menu > Update Customized Panels to Current Level. Review the placement of all user-defined fields. Has anyone other than Kevin tried the 'not updating'? After a product update, running conversion, does the same hold true, just run the utilities?

I don't know where I saw it, but I think you still have to update legacy UDFs. Anyone else have that memory?
