Sage 50 Accounting-u.s.Edition Installation Instructions Quick Tips for Network Install Use the following tips to help you install Sage 50 on a network: Always install Sage 50 FIRST on the computer that will store your Sage 50 company data files (that is, the server).These are the files that record your Sage 50 transactions and records. After installing on the server, install Sage 50 on each workstation. Each computer that will have Sage 50 operating on it must have Sage 50 installed on it. After you install Sage 50 on the server, you'll get instructions for installing on the workstations. You can use a link on these instructions to easily install on your workstations. You can also install on multiple workstations at the same time. Sage 50 Pro Accounting is not multi-user compatible and should only be installed on a single computer. Quick Tips for Upgraders If you are upgrading from an earlier release of the product, you will have the option of 1) installing the new release over the old release, or 2) installing to a new location on the computer so that you will keep your old release of the product. Note the following information: If you choose to keep the older release but convert your company data to release 2015, you will NOT be able to access that data with the old release. If you choose to install over the old release, your company data will NOT be overwritten. Rather, when you open the company for the first time, you will initiate the Conversion Wizard to update the data files to release 2015. Note: Prior to release 2013, Sage 50 Accounting U.S. Edition was known as Sage Peachtree Accounting. 2
