Even More Secure
Sage 100 2021 adds several pre-defined role templates, making it easier to create roles that are specific to your business. Sage 100 Role Maintenance has been enhanced to allow you to quickly assign or remove users to roles, apply changes to multiple roles, along with enhanced search and filtering capabilities to find tasks and security options more easily.
Better Record Keeping
Sage 100 customers who send orders, invoices, and other business documents through the system now have a detailed log to help you confirm that the emails were sent without any issues. Plus, Sage 100 2021 now supports PDFs, Word docs, JPEGs, and other file types to be associated to your journals and registers.
Expanded Email Options
Sage 100 now offers Oauth to authenticate SMTP email requests. Sage customers who use email providers like Gmail or Outlook which require 2-step authentication can now use those email providers directly in the system.
Item Transactions by Date Range
You can select a default date range for the Transactions tab in Item Maintenance and Item Inquiry. The default date range is based on the selection in the Transaction Date Search Default Selection field that has been added to the Additional tab in Inventory Options. When viewing the Transactions tab, you can change the default date range by clicking the Search button and entering different criteria in the Transaction Date row.
