Anyone heard anything more about Avalara for Sage 100 2020?
I hate the Avalara site trying to find connectors. Logged in and was totally unable to find the download section of the connectors after they have once again rearranged the site.
Started an upgrade to 2020 and suddenly remembered that the client was in the process of adding Avatax but had not yet installed on the old system. So now I don't want to continue them to 2020 if the connector is going to be too far out.

Avalara integration for v2019 was not ready last year until August/September time frame. Even though DSD had finished it in June/July time frame.

And I heard from Scanco a couple weeks ago NOT to install PU3 for v2019 as they were NOT releasing a multibin update for it. They are hard at work readying v2020 for release.
BTW, since the customer name and address fields have been expanded in v2020, I would expect a delay in bringing Avalara (and many other MD enhancements) to market.

Before settling for 2019, you may want to contact Joe De Maria at DSD and ask when AvaTAx 2020 is due to be released.

Thanks guys, this is sorta where I figured we'd land. Between Sage releasing too early, or ISVs being too late, someone should take responsibility. Regardless, if it's not available, not much that can be done here in the trenches. I'll either have to kick this project down the road, or see if they'll settle for 2019.

When Sage looked sad at our event and asked why more people didn't immediately go to the latest release I mentioned that many of their ENDORSED ISVs weren't ready for many months which was a huge issue.
And how about as an ENDORSED solution there was a rule your integration had to be ready x days from the main product.
Ultimately, Sage remains too siloed to understand and implement something like this. Nobody in NA has responsibility end to end.
