How to set up and configure Application Server Configuration in Sage 100

Start the application side of the program so that users can connect to Sage 100 Advanced:

1. Log on to the Sage 100 Advanced server.
2. On the Windows Start menu, point to Programs, Sage Software, and click Application Server Configuration.
   Note: The menu path may vary depending on the version and set up.
3. Note the status of the application in the top right corner of the window.
4. If Running does not display, click the Start button at bottom of the window.

Pertinent tabs and information:

∙ The Session tab displays Sage 100 Advanced activity (for example, who and what is being accessed along with other general information).

o This program can start, stop, interrupt, terminate and provide details on the server and users.

o The Session tab shows information on the user, status, IP address, computer name, S.PID, connection time and application.

∙ The Server tab displays the socket port number, which can be changed if necessary.

o The remaining items on this tab are not used for Sage 100 Advanced.

o Changing any field other than the socket port can render the program inoperable.

o Generally the only time a change is necessary is when a port other than 10000 is used for communication purposes between the server and the workstations.

∙ For connection issues it may be necessary to enable logging. To do so, go to the Logging Tab and check the appropriate boxes, per Sage Support. Note that the Timestamps are in Greenwich Mean Time. You will find the logs in the ..MAS90\Home\Lib\_appserv\SERVER folder, where SERVER is the name on the Server Pull Down List.
