The following is a list of corrections and selected enhancements added to Sage 100 2018.6
For a full list of Enhancements, refer to the What's New page inside the Product.

Product updates are cumulative; in other words, this update includes all enhancements and program corrections found in prior updates for version 2018. Smart Update will install only the programs that have been updated since your last update was installed.

Workstation Synchronization has been enhanced to update Sage 100 Standard Workstations along with Sage 100 Advanced and Premium Workstations. Sage 100 Standard Users are no longer required to run WksUpdate Standard.exe on each Sage 100 Standard Workstation. 

All Sage 100 updates must be installed on the server where Sage 100 is installed.

For eBusiness Manager users upgrading for the first time to Product Update 3 or higher, you will need to perform the following one time:
  1. From the Sage 100 Server, copy the following files located in the ..\MAS90\Home folder:
    1. pvxclr4.dll
    2. Sage.Exchange.dll
    3. wsVault.dll
  2. Copy the 3 files above to the server where the Sage 100 Web Engine is installed. The default location for the Sage 100 Web Engine installation is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Sage\Sage 100 20XX WebEngine\WEBENG\Home\", but this is configurable.
  3. Restart the Web Engine and run as an application. Running the Web Engine as a Service is not recommended at this time. See Knowledge Base entries 82537 and 82539 for more information. Make a copy of any existing files before replacing.

Sage 100 2018.5 (and higher) users with Payroll integrated with Bank Reconciliation, will need to also install Sage 100 Payroll 2.18.5 (or higher).

Accounts Payable

  1. Corrected an "Error #12: File does not exist (or already exists) File: JC_CostType" when accessing AP Invoice History Inquiry after removing integration to Job Cost and deleting Job Cost data.

Avatax

  1. With The Avatax connector for Sage 100 2019 all countries in Sage 100 no longer change to ZW. Some clean up of the existing SY_Country.m4t table may be required. Two character country codes are no longer required by Avatax and should not be entered in Sage 100.

Bank Reconciliation

  1. Bank Feeds matching rule added, if no check number exists in bank feed record, we only match date and amount and use the first match. Also, most transaction types with negative values are now mapped to "Withdrawal",  positive values are now mapped to "Deposit". A log file has been added to the BRxxx, where xxx represents the company code and logs the last source values for the last download from Bank Feeds. Additionally, since A/P ACH (when post to B/R in detail) and wire transfers are written to B/R as check, if unable to find a withdrawal, matching will now look for a check.
