Whats New in Sage 50 2020
Here are some of the highlights you will see with the new release:
Address fields associated with Maintenance records for Customers, Vendors and Employees were expanded to accommodate a greater number of characters for longer addresses (increased from 30 to 50).
The Deposit Ticket ID field has been expanded to accommodate up to 20 characters (increased from 8 to 20).
The Item Type field associated with Inventory Items was expanded to accommodate more characters (increased from 8 to 20).
With many States introducing Paid Family Leave laws and other additional employee withholding taxes for designated types of businesses, fields “Special 3, 4 and 5” were added to the Withholding Info tab in the Maintain Employees & Sales Reps.
When emailing a Customer form, you can now choose to email a specific contact, other than the primary/bill-to contact by default. Forms included are: Sales Orders, Quotes, Proposals, Sales Invoices, Credit Memos, Change Orders and Receipts.
The Notes field was added to the Maintain Vendors area and mirrors the setup of Maintain Customers where the Notes field has existed for many releases.
IPM Inbox Notification: For messages that users have not dismissed in the carousel, a new “bell” notification was added to the Top Navigation on the Dashboard to indicate how many active messages have not been read or dismissed. Clicking on the “bell” icon will open the Sage Message Center which will display active messages, with a read or unread status.
Please Note: With the new release there will be a required database upgrade (Pervasive v11 to Actian Zen v13). The upgrade will ensure that the latest updates to the Windows operating system are fully compatible and include the latest security countermeasures to protect company data. It will provide performance improvements in some operations and pave the way to streamline performance in other areas in future updates.
Only Sage 50 2019 and above will operate on the same computer or Virtual Machine (VM) with Sage 50 Sage 50 2020 installed.
The 32-bit edition of the Actian Zen Workgroup Database Engine is still utilized (64-bit edition is not compatible).
Possible conflicts with other software that runs on the same computer and uses/targets older versions of
Pervasive that may not run with the license of the database granted to Sage.
