Perhaps it would be "better" to find a replacement for the AP that had a decent AR module as well that runs on u2 :-)

So I'm in a situation, probably not unlike some of you have found yourselves in before. Our financial department was unhappy with the Accounts Payable system some years back when we were on Ultimate Plus. They purchased an Accounting Package called Sage MAS 90 to run the payables piece and we just dumped data to it every night, etc. Of course, since then, we have long moved to Universe. In that time, we've known some of the Accounts Receivable apps are outdated, but, its just been one of those projects in the heap. And of course priorities seem to always change. Lately, management hopes that they can use the A/R module of Sage MAS 90. However, our POS is still a set of BASIC programs communicating directly with Universe. In my mind, I would think real time communication between the two would be essential. We are a wholesale auto parts business, and when a customer calls for a part, or orders online, our people need to know whether they have credit with us or not. So the credit balances being on another system, and being a day behind would not work. I'm told that Sage MAS 90 uses Providex as a database, and some newer versions use SQL Server- for an extra fee of course. I'm fairly ignorant of the Sage software... Has anyone done any kind of integration like this, where you have made U2 talk to a Sage MAS 90 server in real time for Accounts Receivable purposes? Or do you know of anyone who knows Sage MAS 90, because our current consultant, seems to be clueless? -- John Thompson _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
