Question on Sdata. Not sure if this is the correct forum, but here goes.

SUGGESTED

Quote from our client who wants to upgrade from 2018 to 2019 and switch from Greytrix GUMU Sage 100 integration to Greytrix Microsoft Dynamics integration with Sage 100. Does anyone know the status of Sdata in 2019 and future version?

"Ref: -SDATA configurations will be migrated or reinstalled for 2019  _ I am told that SDATA is obsolete and Sage is removing it.

 

 Greytrix and Dynamics365 will not work if SDATA is removed from Sage. Just had a conference call with Greytrix  regarding our Dynamics365 integration.  As per them if no SDATA their product will not work. Will Sage have this package available for 2019 upgrade."

    Greetings,

    The Sage 100 SData provider is not being removed from Sage 100.  However; while the SData provider offered by Sage 100 will continue to be supported, it is not expected to be further invested in or enhanced by Sage. It is recommended that the use of BOI (Business Object Interface) is used for integrating with the Sage 100 product.

    Thank you,

    Thanks Kent. I would imagine that Greytrix, being a master developer, should be aware of that fact.

    Hey John,

    We being Master Developer are aware that SData will be supported and there will be no enhancement. Knowing this fact we have used SData in GUMUTm for Sage CRM (hosted) – Sage 100 integration too.

    Rest be assured that if SData is completely withdrawn from Sage ecosystem then we will move to Business Object Interface (BOI). JFYI our GUMUTm for Sage CRM (on premise) – Sage 100 integration uses BOI. The choice of using BOI or SData depends upon accessibility of the system to integrate.

    You can connect with us directly if you have any queries about our Sage 100 integration product with CRM (Sage CRM, Salesforce or MS Dynamics 365 CRM) systems.

    Sincerely,

    Dinesh

    Hello Dinesh

    You must have been reading my mind, as that's exactly the answer I gave to the client regarding SData and BOI. 

    Thanks for the reply.
