That's a dumb way of setting it up - to be clear: using the scripts and ODBC DSNs is really a dumb way of doing things. Clearly the consultants are clueless as to what they are doing. It is far easier to use the SQL server name in Sage 300/Accpac Database Setup - you enter the server name instead of using a Data Source. The DSN is created automatically when you runs Sage 300/Accpac. It is easy to change over, edit each database in Database Setup (start with the system database), select Server and then enter the server name - done.

What version????? That must be a very old version because that has not been required since way back when grandad fell off the dinosaur. The Data Source option is there for backward compatibility.

1) Yes 2) Uninstall and then check the folders, delete what is left after checking what it is. You may see modified AP checks and other reports etc, those you may want to keep. License files are not removed, neither is the contents of the Site folder and other folders in the Shared Data Folder.

It's not old, so ignore the manual and do what we said.

Does that also make it easier for running Crystal reports - both from within Accpac and in Crystal Reports itself? I assume I would have to update all my reports.

Forum Post: RE: Invalid Database Specification
Unless you did something very fancy, you don't have to update any reports, the report engine handles the switch between databases.

Hi Are you using SA or a different login group to the database in SQL? If it is using a different group, ensure that the user is added to the group. If you are not sure, go to Accpac Databasesetup -- select a Company -- Edit -- Check the Login , is it using SA or any other id. Once you determined then go to SQL and add in the user to that group id

@Samantha - That is not correct. The database credentials are stored in ..\SITE\ORGS.ISM, which is a central shared file, so it would work the same for all users.

Forum Post: RE: Invalid Database Specification
Once of the cause might be that. I don't use SA in SQL and I use Server name in the Accpac Databasesetup as the connection. So when a new user try to login to Accpac, they encounter Invalid Database Specificiation . After I added the user in the SQL login, it resolved.

That's nonsense. If you use an SQL user with sysadmin role then everything works as it should. Follow the correct procedures.

Forum Post: Where is the data entered for APOBL.DESCINVC?
I need to print comments on check stubs and am using PrintBoss to print checks on blank stock. I need to enter comments at vendor invoice entry and have them print on the check stub. I notice that there is a field used in APCHK01.rpt called APOBL.DESCINVC and I'm not sure where data is entered for this field. Is it populated at AP invoice entry and if so, which field in the entry form does it relate to?

Forum Post: "Same as Customer Address" option not available in billing detail tab of credit card information
Hello All, We are having Sage ERP Accpac 500 (Version 6.0A). I have recently integrated Sage ERP Accpac Payment Processing 6.0A module to process Credit card payment. Everything went well and we are able to charge customer's credit card using Sage Payment System successfully. We are facing a problem that when entering order billing detail on the Credit Card Information tab, there is no such option like "Same as Customer Address" (checkbox). I saw this in each tutorial and it is very useful feature. The option i am taking is this. http://www.greytrix.com/blogs/sageaccpacerp/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/4.-Credit-Card-Information.jpg Can anyone guide me on this how to enable this feature? Thanks a lot. Sunil
