Sage 100 2022.6: TAX ERROR after installing PU6 AND when the first line on a SO Order is /C

SUGGESTED

After installing PU6 for Sage 100 2022 if the first line in a sales order invoice is a /C the customer receives a TAX ERROR. Rebuilding and/or changing the sales tax schedule doesn't fix the issue. If I change the sales tax schedule I receive "Tax Class is missing from tax code XX".

What resolved this was to move the /C line so it is anywhere except the first line on an SO invoice. Once I move the /C then I don't get the error any longer.

This is an existing customer that was previously on 2022 and installed the PU6

    Thanks for the tip Wayne!  (Looks we have a customer showing the same pattern).

    Can you reply on here if/when you have a response to your ticket? We are experiencing the same issue since we updated and would love to know if this is still being worked on.

    Contact Sage support.  There is a Pre-Release fix available if you sign a Pre-Release agreement.

    Anyone had any luck fixing this issue?  We just upgraded from Sage 100 2021 to 2024 and ran in to this issue.  We are invoicing about 1000 Sales Orders a day and 98% have a /C comment line at the top.  Any help would be appreciated.

    This appears to be resolved in PU1.  If for some reason you can't install PU1 of v2024; then open a ticket with Sage requesting the fix.

    Thanks for the response.  I can see where it is fixed in PU1 for Sage 300, but we are running Sage 100 and we should have all updates installed.  I started a case with Sage Support and they are working on it for us, but please let me know if you are aware of an update for Sage 100 that addresses the issue.  It's possible that I am missing it.

    Thanks

    Sage Support got back to me and said the problem has been fixed in update 1 for 2024.  They referenced document # 230609212953310 in the Knowledge Base.  Once I logged in via Customer Portal, I was able to find the document and it gave me a path to download the update.   We will give it a shot tonight and see how it works

    Thanks

    I have a concern with how Sage handled this patch. I ran into this on 2022.6 and it was only because I was working on updating a customer site who also had payroll and unfortunately decided that "while I was in the system" that I should install the latest supported product update --- 2022 PU6.

    The customer did not notice this issue occurring until I installed PU6

    Sage opted not to release a product update 7 and instead the Sage 100 2022 last PU appears to be 6 -- which is where the customer noticed the bug.

    The only option given to this customer was to sign a waiver for a fix for a supported version of Sage 100 where the bug appears like it could have been introduced by  Sage in 2022 PU6.

    I'm confused as to why Sage wouldn't have issued a public patch on this if in fact it was a bug they introduced in 2022.6. Given this experience I've changed my recommendation to customers: 

    1. Don't install a PU unless it clearly resolves a known issue that you are experiencing

    2. PU won't automatically be released for supported versions

    3. Sage no longer appears to be posting fixes to their download portal. It remains to be seen if this will be a permanent policy and, if so, whether all future patches will be "waiver required".
