Happy 2010!

We are very excited that MAS 90/200 Version 4.4 is due out during this quarter. This version is focused on bringing the Inventory Management, Purchase Order, Bill of Materials and Bar Code Modules up to the new framework.

Welcome 2010

The first Monday of January begins a new and promising life, full of New Year’s resolutions that will revolutionize, strengthen and lengthen our lives. Unfortunately for many of us, these resolutions fade away as quickly as they are made. Here is a tip to make your resolution stick:

Each day, read and commit to your resolutions but only for that day, not for the whole year. By Feb. 1, they will become a new habit. Taking this day by day keeps it realistic and manageable. When you visualize the whole year it can be overwhelming. If you think in the mindset each and every day, "Today I will...." you will be able to commit to your resolution on a daily basis. Each day accomplished is a day closer to bring your resolution to fruition.

May the New Year promise you all good fortune, health, happiness and prosperity.

FYI...Our trivia contest from our last post is still open. No winners so far. Start the year off a winner and take a guess.

Sage Summit: Customer Conference

Sage Summit, the annual North America customer conference, wrapped up a month ago in Atlanta and was a hit with current Sage ERP Users I’m happy to tell you that planning for the next Summit is already well underway, and Sage will be making changes to add even more value to our customers.

Sage will also be shifting the event to July, which customers tell us works better for their business cycles. The next Sage Summit will be held at the Gaylord National in Washington, D.C., with customer focus tracks, July 13-15. This Summit is planned to be the first combined summit with customers and partners.
