Masked Data for Better Security
In Sage 100 2023, The 1099 Vendor Taxpayer ID/Social Security Number is now masked in data entry tasks and will also print masked on the Vendor Listing, Vendor Listing with Balances, and Vendor Mailing Labels.
In addition, vendor ACH bank account and routing numbers are now masked in data entry tasks and will also print masked on the Vendor Listing. The routing transit numbers are also masked in ACH Maintenance.
In both cases, only Sage 100 users with the appropriate security access can view this sensitive information and access the options to print unmasked data.
