Explore What’s New in Sage 100 version 2025

Sage 100 version 2025 is here, delivering powerful updates designed to make your business operations more efficient, accurate, and user-friendly. Packed with new features and enhanced functionality, this release focuses on improving everyday processes, optimizing performance, and offering greater flexibility for your growing business. Whether you’re handling invoices, managing inventory, or tracking orders, Sage 100 2025 ensures your workflows are smoother and more tailored to your needs. Let’s dive into the key upgrades and see how they can transform the way you work.

Longer Invoice Numbers

One of the most requested features is now available: the ability to extend customer invoice numbers beyond the previous 7-character limit. Sage 100 2025 allows you to define invoice numbers up to 20 characters in the Accounts Receivable, Sales Order, and Job Cost modules. This permanent change accommodates growing businesses and ensures greater flexibility in managing invoices.

Key Benefits:

• Easily scale invoice numbering as your business expands.
• Standardize older invoices by updating them to the new format for consistency.
• Maintain precision with zero-padding for numeric invoices during the conversion process.

Important Note: Because this is a permanent change, we strongly recommended testing the feature in a staging environment before full implementation.

Advanced Tracking for Sales and Purchase Orders

Tracking changes to sales and purchase orders has never been easier. With Sage 100 2025, you can monitor and record detailed updates at every stage, helping you eliminate audit frustrations and maintain transparency across your processes.

For Sales Orders:

• Track changes such as order quantities, pricing adjustments, and line edits at a granular level.
• Choose between detailed or summary tracking options for a customized view of changes.

For Purchase Orders:

• Apply similar tracking capabilities to ensure accuracy in vendor transactions.
• Easily monitor changes to purchase orders for better accountability and clarity.

Why It Matters:

• Speed up audits with precise and detailed logs of every change.
• Gain actionable insights to better manage and optimize your sales and purchasing processes.

Optimized Purchase Order Requests for Quotes

Streamline vendor negotiations with the new Quote Management feature in the Purchase Order module. This tool allows you to request quotes from multiple vendors, compare offers, and select the one that delivers the best value—all before finalizing your purchases. Integration with paperless office tools makes the process even more efficient, saving you time and effort.

Simplified General Ledger Reversals

Accounting just got easier. Sage 100 2025 now reduces errors by defaulting journal reversals to the original entry date, provided the period remains open. This small but impactful improvement simplifies account reconciliation and ensures greater accuracy when managing your general ledger.

Smarter Inventory Management

Efficient inventory management can make or break your business operations. With Sage 100 2025, you’ll benefit from new features designed to enhance accuracy and streamline warehouse workflows.

Barcode Validation

Directly input and validate UPC/EAN codes in item maintenance to ensure error-free product identification. Barcodes can also be included on forms like picking sheets to eliminate mistakes during shipping and fulfillment.

Physical Count Sorting

Organize and simplify warehouse counts with new sorting options for physical count worksheets, including sorting by product line or extended descriptions.

Accounts Payable and Bank Reconciliation Updates

Managing payments and bank statements is now more efficient with these user-friendly updates:

• Easily toggle between grid and checkbox views for invoice selection in Accounts Payable.
• View real-time totals during bank reconciliations for faster and more accurate matching with statements.
• Save time with retained column sorting preferences, making adjustments more consistent and quick.

Streamlined Label Printing

Printing inventory labels is no longer a repetitive hassle. With Sage 100 2025, you can keep the label printing window open after the first preview or print, allowing you to process large inventory lists more efficiently.

Enhanced Management of Returned Goods

Simplify the processing of returned goods with the updated Purchase Order module. You can now choose whether a return generates a backorder, eliminating unnecessary steps and saving valuable processing time.

Revamped Production Management

Manage production workflows more effectively with a suite of improvements, including:

• Alphanumeric revision numbers for easier identification and organization.
• Step-specific attachments for more detailed production instructions.
• Enhanced copying features that allow you to duplicate steps for faster setup.
• New descriptive fields for templates and revisions, offering greater clarity and customization.

Additional Noteworthy Features
