Sage 100

Any news on JobOps 4.5 release? The last post on the ""What's New"" section of the web site is from 2009. Can't find any info on current releases.

It's expected before the end of the year is what I heard. The 4.50 initial release will be compliance only, no new features.

Thanks Dawn. Field service included?

I would assume so. The announcement was very brief.

Thanks.

From communique 4/25. 4.40 R4 is out today. V4.5 R1 is next. No date published. The bet to make is whether it will be out by Summit (I bet not).

Thanks @JerryNorman . Of course I need R2. Guess I was a year early with my question.

Update on JobOps 4.5: It is not currently available. The goal is the end of July but it's suspected it'll be right before Summit in August. Companies that have Field Service will be able to upgrade to the first release of 4.5 unless they require the now merged National Accounts extended solution that's in 4.5. If they require this functionality for Service Agreements, they will then have to wait until R2 which should be very late 2012 or early 2013. R2 (or the second release) for 4.5 is going to have most of the Field Service components updated to framework.

Thanks for the heads-up Brett.

Yesterday it was implied that it may be ready by Summit.

I just heard today that the 4.50 release is still on target for mid-August.

I was just informed that my customization is on hold until the release of 4.5 ""which is targeted to be released in the next couple days.

What a shock that it was released by Summit.
