    Word of Caution - I just discovered the hard way that upgrading to FAS 2017 converts the licenses from concurrent to named. Tech Support told me they are getting lots of calls, he said the notice was buried in the fine print for the upgrade. Something to be aware of, caused a big problem for my client, they are going to have to pay thousands to add licenses for stations that only access the program infrequently.

    Luckily we always communicated that was the unenforced license of Sage FAS. It hasn't been too painful for those that have had to transition to now paying for what they have been using all along.

    The only concurrent I remember was when it was the MAS Fixed Assets left over from EES. Otherwise anything directly from the FAS group has been named.

    If you have infrequent users, maybe install FAS client on a server and have the infrequent users remote desktop to the server when they need FAS.
