CAUTION: The following procedure requires in-depth knowledge of database engines for your Sage product, such as Microsoft SQL Server, Pervasive SQL, and MySQL. Sage can't assist with database administration and isn't responsible for errors resulting from database changes. Back up your system and application databases required for a complete restore. Consider contacting a certified consultant or your database administrator for assistance.

CAUTION: Sage support can't assist with third-party products, hardware, report customizations, or state and federal tax questions. Refer to our Scope of Support for more info. Contact your Sage business partner, network administrator, or accountant for assistance.

Note:  You can also see all applications current month in Desktop:

• Versions 15.1 and older: Tasks, Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate, Additional Tools and selecting the Monthly Tasks Workflow Center.
• Versions 16.1 and later: Applications, Additional Tools and selecting the Monthly Tasks Workflow Center.

This will show the current month for Payroll, Job Cost, Contracts and General Ledger (Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable show as N/A as they are a close year task).
