Hello
Hate to beat a dead horse into the ground, but I always thought with each Sage 100 purchase/subscription, a company gets:
1. 1 free Sage CRM User
2. 1 free Sage 100 user (to accomodate the Sage CRM user if they get in as an integrated to Sage 100 user)
Now from Sage, I am being told:
Sage 100 is sold with one (1) Sage CRM license, no matter if it is Essentials, Advanced, or Complete. Sage 100 does not provide extra licenses for Sage CRM users.
Doug,
See comments below:
Sage 100 is sold with one (1) Sage CRM license, no matter if it is Essentials, Advanced, or Complete. Sage 100 does not provide extra licenses for Sage CRM users.
An organization can have just Sage 100 users and just Sage CRM users and the licenses will be separate.
For the standard integration of Sage 100 and Sage CRM, if the user wants to see Sage 100 data (quotes, sales orders, inventory, purchase history) in Sage CRM, then the Sage CRM user will consume a Sage 100 license. The default Sage integration will map the Sage CRM user to the Sage 100 user in the 'Customer Relationship Management' module of Sage 100. Personally, I believe the default integration is necessary if the Sage CRM user is also doing Sage 100 (ERP) work functions, meaning the customer facing Salesperson is also doing the backend ERP duties.
Any comments? I can look at an IML, System Config, and the portal and it does not always make sense as to registered users versus available users.
