  • The announcement above mentions the AP credit card reconciliation.Having said that, Auto Bank feed should not be on the list.

  • sorry - hit the "send" key...

     
    We've added Mobile Phone number to most entities: customers, vendors, buyers, sales persons, warehouses...
    You can verify addresses via USPS validation in Maintain Recurring Vouchers and Invoices and Enter Vouchers/Invoices
    SMTP encrytion support (SSL) has been added and support for requiring credentials. The credentials are stored, so they don't have to be re-entered.
    A few 1099 changes were added to support features existing in Aatrix, including the ability specify a 1099 specific address, name and to indicate if the vendor
    consents to receiving 1099s via email. Tax payer ID is also masked in most places.
    As new versions of Microsoft Office are delivered, v2018 and beyond should support them without the need for a product update.
    Registration now supports Clusters and High-Availability servers, with SQL 2017 support added too.
    We also added a check during startup and install to make any changes necessary to support side-by-side running of Sage 500 with other Sage products using a different version of Crystal Reports.
    Something not as interesting perhaps, we removed dependency on no-longer-supported SQL DMO.

  • My bad.  Should have read the above.   The Release Notes that came with the product somehow failed to mention this new feature...
