Sage 100 Contractor v18, v19 Transition Considerations
In recent years, Sage has made the New Year’s tax tables available only in the most recent version of the program. This year, they are breaking with tradition –
the tax tables will be available in version 18.3 and version 19.2!
The mid-January update included eight (8) more states and Puerto Rico.
Now the question is, when to upgrade and to which version. Find the sentence below that best describes your use of Sage 100 Contractor and follow the recommendations. Before the recommendations, we have a short list of other considerations when preparing for your upgrade to version 19
- Do you have other custom programs that use Sage 100 Contractor data such as Syscon Over/Under Billing report, Syscon Union report, Syscon Direct Deposit, any software that provides paperless routing of documents, Estimating integrations, etc.? Be sure the software is compatible with Sage 100 Contractor version 19

The 2013 year end journal adjustments may not yet be available to enter; these will need to be posted
before
moving to Sage 100 Contractor version 19
