    So we took the plunge and for testing purposes installed 2019 new but do not see Production Management on the menu - what am I missing?  Did Sage say it was a separate install somewhere?  We see Work Order.

    Yes you need to get the install files from Scanco.  They will provide you with the install

    According to Scanco there is a link in the 2019 installer under the Productivity applications section that leads to a Scanco download page.

    Why can’t sage have a similar link from installer to click to download required hotfixes and PU?

    I'm moving this to the Sage 100 community since this isn't really Urgent Support. I've reached out to Scanco for clarification.

    The regular work order and MRP will come installed with v2019. ScanCo has not finished their integration. Darin said it wasn't coming out until June-July ( they don't have a date last i spoke with them) then you can implement the modules into 2019

    I would be weary of implementing those right off the bat and wait for other consultants to be the "beta testers" to get the kinks worked out. It may be a lite version of JobOps, but still different. I see "payroll 2.0" issues all over again for this production management module. Plus someone (sage?) is coming out with a conversion tool, sounds promising. Again, I would wait. Until you get more feedback

    I agree @Erin Oldaker with your thought about waiting for a while before installing PM.  I am glad I wasn't an early adopter of payroll 2.0.  Holy smokes, payroll issues are blood pressure raisers.  ​Issues with inventory cost roll-up and valuation aren't far behind payroll on the anxiety meter.

    Cost rollups don't have a bunch of burly dudes ready to kick your butt if they don't get a paycheck :)

    LOL - in class, Joe just told us Sage wanted them to be "nicer" but he stuck with what they had.

    I'd rather be warned of the hard truth in clear terms, instead of "nice" ambiguity. 

    The no-uninstall is harsh, but good to know.
