Getting Started
This guide includes combined instructions for both New and Upgrade installations of Sage 100
Fund Accounting.
New Installation Scenarios
• You are installing a one-user version of Sage 100 Fund Accounting (programs and database) on a single computer. The computer may or may not be part of a network, but the programs and database reside on the local hard drive of this computer. In this scenario, there are no network files involved, and no other computers have access to the system/database.
• You have a network comprised of a server machine with one or more local computers attached, and you want to install the database on the server machine so that other users can access it from their local computers (either one at a time or simultaneously depending on your license).
• You have a network comprised of two or more local computers that can access each other's shared drives, and you want to install the database on one computer's shared drive so that other users can access it from their local computers (either one at a time or simultaneously depending on your license).
• You have a network and want to install the database on a server machine for backup and security purposes, even though only one user accesses it from a single local computer.
• You are installing the Sage 100 Fund Accounting programs and database in a virtual environment. You must use a virtual service client, such as VMWare's Infrastructure Client
Console, instead of a Remote Desktop Connection.
Upgrade Installation Scenarios
• You are upgrading an existing Stand Alone or Network installation. Your installation will upgrade if you have a previous version installed.
• You are upgrading the Sage 100 Fund Accounting programs and database in a virtual environment. You must use a virtual service client, such as VMWare's Infrastructure Client
Console, instead of a Remote Desktop Connection.
• For specific information regarding existing users, see
Chapter 4: Existing User - Upgrading
,
Chapter 5: Existing User - Server Install
, and Chapter 6: Existing User - Workstation Install .

If the Windows Firewall is turned on, you must configure exceptions in the firewall for SQL
Server or the client computer(s) will not be able to connect. For specific instructions on setting up the exceptions, see Knowledgebase article 303029 in the Sage Customer Portal. If you are new to the Sage Customer Portal or to the Knowledgebase, visit the Customer Support
Resources page for more information.
Note:
Windows Firewall is turned on by default with Windows 2008 Server.
5.
Delete all files in the local TEMP directory, such as C:\Documents and Settings\<Current
User>\Local Settings\Temp. Since the computer has just rebooted and any unnecessary applications are closed, there should be few files in the Temp directory. Nevertheless, delete any files or folders that remain there.
6.
If you are running Sage 100 Fund Accounting on a laptop, set your hibernation settings to
Never (Start>Settings>Control Panel>Power Options>Power Schemes tab). Otherwise, when the computer times out, your seat will become inactive.
7.
Before you begin the server install:
– The user logged on to the server machine must be a member of the Local Administrators group.
– To install or upgrade Sage 100 Fund Accounting in a on a virtual environment, you must use a virtual service client, such as VMWare's Infrastructure Client Console, instead of a
Remote Desktop Connection.
– For specific instructions for SQL Server 2008 Standard Edition configuration, see
Knowledgebase article 309148 in the Sage Customer Portal. It details how to check an existing instance of SQL Server 2008 Standard Edition to ensure proper functionality before installing Sage 100 Fund Accounting. Also, Knowledgebase article 205743 offers
SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition configuration instructions. If you are new to the Sage
Customer Portal or to the Knowledgebase, visit the Customer Support Resources page for more information.
– SQL Server 2008 and Windows 7 Users: Be sure to start the SQL Server Browser and consider setting the Start Mode to Automatic to ensure that the workstation can access the
Sage 100 Fund Accounting system database.
8.
Before you begin the workstation install, you must ensure the following:
– The user logged on to the server machine must be a member of the Local Administrators group.
– Windows XP Users: Each workstation has at the very least write access to the “All Users” and <user name> folders--<local drive letter:>\Documents and Settings\All Users and
<user name>. Also verify that each user that uses Aatrix® (for 1099s, W-2s, 990s, etc.) has
“Full Control” rights (right-click on folder>Properties>Security tab).
– Vista Users: Each workstation has at the very least read-write access to the
“ProgramData” folder--<local drive letter:>\ProgramData. Also verify that each user that uses Aatrix® (for 1099s, W-2s, 990s, etc.) has rights.
– Windows 7 Users: Each workstation has at the very least read-write access to the
“ProgramData” folder--<local drive letter:>\ProgramData.
– Sage 100 Fund Accounting cannot install successfully without these folders and rights.
