The main features and functionality enhancements in Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 4.5 will be in Accounts Receivable, Payroll, Purchase Order, and Sales Order. These customer-requested features and functionality were obtained through various feedback and evaluation methods, including the Sage customer enhancement request website and user surveys. Many of the new features that will be incorporated are similar to the main features and functionality of 14 select Extended Solutions titles. Also, all 36 enhancements that have been provided through the Product Updates for 4.4 will be included in the 4.5 release.
Sage ERP MAS Intelligence will be enhanced in 4.5 to include Reporting Tree capabilities and additional sample reports. With 4.5, Intelligence will be compatible with the Sage ERP MAS 200 SQL product.
Current Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 Extended Enterprise Suite customers will be provided with the equivalent 4.5 system on user-based pricing, and they will be merged into the core product line with equivalent Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 licenses and separate SageCRM licenses. Both named and concurrent SageCRM licenses will be available, although each customer will be required to choose one type of licensing. It is not possible to mix the two types of licenses in one system. Customers on Business Care plans will be able to stay current with the SageCRM product release schedule.
Both new and existing customers will find immediate benefit to their business operations from the tremendous enhancements in Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 4.5. Sage will continue to listen to our customers and partners and provide the functionality that is most important to them. In 2012 in addition to customer-requested enhancements, Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 Version 5.0 will focus on web-enabling the product to improve usability and allow customers more mobile access and additional web-based integrations. We strongly encourage customers running older versions of Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 to plan to upgrade to the most current release and begin taking advantage of all the benefits outlined in this document.
