    Interesting audience questions posted from today's Webinar.


    Audience Question

    Is Purchase Control by State adapted for a State code existing in multiple countries?  (Or an option added for Purchase Control by country)?

    I do not have an answer for you at this time, but we will verify and let you know after the webcast.


    Audience Question

    If we have modified the Customer maint panel, we will need to review these changes and refit our changes?

    Yes, you will need to review those changes.


    Audience Question

    Is Purchase Control by State adapted for a State code existing in multiple countries?  (Or an option added for Purchase Control by country)?

    We did update Purchase control to include State codes existing in countries outside the US.  State/Province codes are tied to Country, so this should be addressed.


    Audience Question

    Looks like there is a loophole for the encryption.  Primary Contact code ARTIE JOHN was still visible after the utility was finshed...

    When using the encryption utility in Library Master, you can select the fields you wish to encrypt, so not all fields are hidden. 


    Audience Question

    On the receipt history inquiry, are you able to search for receipts for a PO that was received on multiple but was not on the primary PO?

    Yes, you can display all the POs and drill into each of them.


    Audience Question

    A lot of client use UDFs now for lot expiration dates.  Will there be a utility to possibly migrate therse dates?  Where we can specify a UDF to move to the standard fields?

    There is not currently a utility, however you should be able to do an import using VI, pulling in the data from the UDT/UDF.


    Audience Question

    Is Unhide GL still provided for legacy custom reports in GL?

    I cannot verify whether that utility is still available at this time.  I will verify and respond after the webcast.


    What about DELETING udf's from grids?  Doesn't happen now.


    Audience Question

    Is updating EACH udf AFTER migrating still recommended/required?  If so, will this utility update EVERYTHING at once????

    It is still recommended, but this update will simplify the update.


    Audience Question

    On the import of the einvoices payments, is there any method to make sure the payments that pull in match the deposits that are made into the bank other than by date (for example, what if the clerk is sick and needs to import 5 days worth)?

    You can match the dates on the merchant dashboard, and choose to bring in separate dates if required to match the deposit dates at the bank.


    Audience Question

    Will there need to be a separate PAYA account?  Meaning we currently have the old Virtual Terminal.  Is this one in the same or another account for PAYA will need to be create?

    You will need to have a new account for the new terminal. I understand if there is an existing account, setting up a new account should be fairly straight forward.


    Audience Question

    Do the CCPA features satisfy GDPR requiremens as well?

    Yes, the two regulations are nearly identical in many respects. Remediation varies, but the basic requirements of CCPA and GDPR are basically the same.


    But all I hear is we are going to use Salesforce and they have a link to Sage 100....

    Sage CRM is fully integrated and support is ongoing. Integration to Salesforce is third-party and was a strategy of a prior management ... not necessarily the current one.


    Audience Question

    what costs are associated with einvoicing, both for the Sage100 user and/or their customers?

    Costs for eInvoicing are transactional costs from PAYA, there is no additional cost to use the feature from Sage 100cloud.


    Audience Question

    what costs are associated with einvoicing, both for the Sage100 user and/or their customers?

    Those costs are to the merchant only, no costs to the consumer.

    I’m not sold Sage CRM is poised for any meaningful lasting comeback.
