VI question: Customer has scheduled VI export for positive pay in 4.30 (we'll be converting to standard positive pay shortly but need this fixed for now). Upgraded them to 5.0 today and he emailed indicating in 4.30 he used some logic/program called 'date_check' to select checks written just for today. He wrote: ""It's a performix function. The program name was called through the perform function in VI and was called like this: /vi/vitxt;Date_Check. That program is no longer called that now (in 5.0). Do you know how I can select just the records for today with the new program?"" Can anybody tell me how to have him do this in 5.0? Thanks Nancy

Did you copy the vitxt file from the V4.30 vi folder to the new V5.00 VI folder? The migration wouldn't of done this. It this doesn't work upload the vitxt and an export of the VI job and we can review it.

Agree with jim. There should be a file under the old system. Copy it to the new install and you should be good to go....

Forwarded your information and customer responded that it worked. Thanks guys, I really appreciate the quick response. Happy holidays to both of you.

Any chance you have access to that date_check file? I'd love to see what calls are made to pass the date parameter back to VI. Been trying to discover best way to use date arguments within VI selection criteria, and this appears to do just that.

I'll see what I can do Mark.

Why don't you just use the Positive Pay under Bank Rec in 5.0 instead of VI?

Aaron; we will be converting soon but in the mean time they needed their vi job fixed. I didn't have time yesterday/today to setup and test and they write checks everyday so need some overlap so checks don't get denied.

I understand that but if they are with one of the larger banks the setup of this take like 5 minutes and it works awesome. I had a client that was using VI too and we switched them over in under an hour training included and file worked to the bank right away. Sage has done so much with VI that they no longer allow us to touch to make it work correctly that it is becoming a waist of time to mess with it. Used to be able to setup all of your own validations and everything worked great. Now it is a mess...just my option

Mark: here are the 2 files he was using. Hope they work for you.

Thanks @NancyHanson !

A cute but effective little Perform it is.
