Sage 50 Manufacturing - Retirement

Sage’s popular manufacturing product has been announced as end of life. Find out more and discover its recommended replacement

Sage 50 Manufacturing

The Sage 50 Manufacturing solution has now been retired. All support and services from Sage for the product ended on 30th September 2021. This includes the following Sage Manufacturing variants; Bill of Materials, Batch Controller, Job Controller, Manufacturing Controller and Operation Times.

Integrate With The Latest Version of Sage 50 Accounts

Since the release of Sage 50 Accounts Version 28 we have been able to confirm that there is a compatibility issue between Sage 50 Manufacturing and Sage 50 Accounts Version 28 and 28.1.

This issue will result in users being unable to print any reports or documents or being able to access the business solution at all.

Therefore, we would strongly advise not upgrading Sage 50 Accounts to v28, v28.1 or v29 whilst still using any of the Sage Manufacturing variants.

Our recommendation would be to migrate to Cim50 Manufacturing, which is fully compatible with Sage 50 Accounts v28, v28.1, v29 and Windows 11. We have a migration tool available so we can seamlessly move your data with as little downtime as possible.

Sage 50 Manufacturing’s Replacement: Cim50

Following the software retirement announcement, CIM Software entered an agreement with Sage that resulted in our Cim50 Manufacturing solution being the recommended manufacturing software package for Sage 50 Accounts.

Cim50 includes everything that the Sage solution offers as well as over 150 additional features spread across each area of the software.

Gain greater control over manufacturing processes by:

  • Effectively scheduling work with Just in Time Planning and MRP

Based on customer and partner feedback, Cim50 Manufacturing is continually being developed with new features added to each new annual release. Full support for the solution is also provided.
