What's new in Sage 300 2018 PU2
Simplified process for updating workstations
When installing a product update that includes changes to workstation setup, you now update workstations by simply reinstalling workstation setup. You no longer need to uninstall workstation setup first.
Changes to the way you enter subscription license information
If you have a Sage 300c subscription, enter your System Manager serial number on the License Information tab of the License Manager screen, in the Serial Number field. After entering the serial number, click Refresh.
Sage 300c web screens improvements
This product update includes the following new features and improvements in Sage 300c web screens:
EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Sage 300 Anonymizer
The GDPR is a set of laws that comes into force on May 25, 2018. The GDPR applies to you if you process or hold the personal data of people residing in the European Union, even if your company is located outside the EU.
In some situations, the GDPR may legally require you to stop holding personal data for an individual. In part, this means removing a customer or vendor’s personal data (such as their name and address) from Sage 300. A new tool—Sage 300 Anonymizer—helps you do this.
Product Update 2 program fixes
The following sections describe program fixes included in Product Update 2.
Printing Checks
When printing checks from Accounts Payable or Accounts Receivable, if a check language other than English is specified for the transaction to which a check relates, the check amount is printed in the specified language. Previously, check amounts were always printed in English.
Performance
Fixed a problem in Sage 300 classic screens that could cause slow performance when opening screens.
Notes in Sage 300 Classic Screens
Fixed a problem in Sage 300 classic screens that could cause the Notes screen to stop responding.
Optional Fields in Sage 300c Web Screens
In Sage 300c web screens, when using the Finder in the Value field for an optional field, you can search for a specific value or part of a value.
Bank Services
Fixed a problem that occurred in Sage 300 classic screens on the Reverse Transactions screen, which prevented EFT Payroll Checks from appearing if you selected the Reverse Multiple Transactions option.
Accounts Payable
In Sage 300c web screens, the Vendor Currency field on the Payment Entry screen displays the vendor’s currency. Previously, the field displayed nothing.
General Ledger
Fixed a problem that could occur when printing from the Print Financial Statements screen in Financial Reporter, which could cause the Paper Size field on the Print for Print Financial Statements screen to display nothing or to display an incorrect paper size.
Inventory Control
- Fixed a problem that could cause an optional field to incorrectly appear on a serialized item. This problem sometimes occurred when you created a PO receipt that included multiple serialized items, some of which have optional fields assigned to them.
- Fixed a problem on the Update Item Pricing screen that prevented you from updating item pricing if you specified an optional field in the Select by field, and you specified the same value in both the From and To fields (as opposed to two different values to define a range).
Order Entry
- Fixed a problem on the Order Entry screen that occurred if you upgraded from Sage 300 2012, which replaced the date in the Deliver By field with the date from the Order Date field.
- Fixed a problem that could occur when creating an order from quotes, which set the Tax Included field for details on the order to “No”, regardless of whether “Yes” was specified on the quotes. This problem occurred if you selected the From Multiple Quotes option on the Order Entry screen, and then used the Create Order from Quotes screen to select quotes.
- Fixed a problem in Sage 300c web screens that occurred on the Order Entry screen when viewing an order with more than 10 details, if the number of details on the order is a multiple of 10 (that is, 20, 30, 40, and so on), in which case the Details table displayed only the last 10 details.
Project and Job Costing
- Fixed a problem with the Posted Documents section of the Clear History screen, which caused posted documents to always be cleared based on Transaction Date, even if you selected Year/Period in the Cutoff By field.
- On the Transaction History screen, for a debit note that has been applied to a credit note, the details table shows two rows: one with a transaction type of Posted, and one with a transaction type of Apply To. Previously, the details table showed only the row with a transaction type of Posted.
- Fixed a problem that caused the Timecards screen to stop working if you specified in the Employee Number field an employee who you do not have permission to view.
Sage 300 SDK
- Fixed a problem that occurred if you used 10-digit field IDs in a program developed using the Sage 300 SDK, which prevented the program from working.
- In programs developed using the Sage 300 SDK, you can now use custom colors for grid cells on Visual Basic screens.
- Fixed a problem that occurred if you have subclassed the G/L Account Segments view (GL0022), which caused an error message to incorrectly appear when opening some Sage 300c web screens.
