Editing Shortcuts

Question

Aloha, 
 How do we get Sage to store our shortcuts so that they appear when we sign in on a different workstation? 
 Thanks,

Unfortunately you cannot point sage to another location. However I do recommend that your IT person set up some automatic backup of those file locations from each workstation over to a place on the server so that when you change workstations or a computer crashes you can copy them to a new computer. 
 Note: The AppData folder is a system folder and by default Windows hides systems folders so you will need to change your folder view settings to see them. I also recommend unchecking the "hide extension of known file types" because I like to know the extensions of all the files. 
 The location is: 
 c:\users\your windows login name\AppData\Local\Sage\sage 100 Contractor\User Maps\your Sage 100 login name\ *.map 
 There will be a different file * for each Sage 100 tab. 
 I usually put all my shortcuts on the Home & Resources Tab or the Reports Tab since those are blank to start with.

Yes that is correct. But be careful that the second user doesn't already have a custom map or it will be lost. 
 Remember the deep path is unique for everyone since its under the user's windows login name
