Are you using MS Modern Authentication, 365 and SAGE? If yes, how is it configured?

SOLVED

Hi,

If you're using SAGE with 365 and modern authentication (baseline security, MFA) and have it working to send emails, how did you configure it? I was on the phone with 4 (!) different Sage support techs and none of them had even heard of 365 modern authentication security.

Thank you,

Denis

    A client just informed me that the APP password works.  His email was as follows

    The APP password works in Sage 300!
    Also works in Sage WageEasy.

    For your reference this is what I had to do:

    1. Open www.office.com
    2. Enter email address
    3. Enter normal email password
    4. Enter the security code if necessary
    5. At the screen that shows apps (eg outlook, onedrive, word, etc) press gear icon (top right)
    6. Select Update contact preferences
    7. Select Security & privacy (left side of screen)
    8. Select Create and manage app passwords
    9. Select create
    10. Give the password a name eg Sage
    11. Select next
    12. Copy the password to the clipboard (you might have to do that manually)
    13. Then go into the Sage setup screen for email and replace the email password with the APP password from the clipboard
    14. Test
