Forum Post: Huge backups - how to trim?
Hello, Our backups are becoming huge - 42GB's at the moment. I believe this started happening when we started attaching pdfs/scans. Is there anything we can do to decrease the size? Trying to run a data verification and it takes 1 or 2 hours to do the backup before I can proceed.

I have never seen a 42 GB backup. You must have a fast computer. I have a feeling you may be backing up your backups. I would suggest moving them to a backup folder under the company folder. (You will need to create it) We also offer purging. Our service is with a data specialist that has been doing this for many, many years. Let me know if we can be of some assistance.

To determine whether or not the attachments are the reason for the huge backup size, make a backup and uncheck the "Include attachments in the backup" option. If that is the source of the problem then you probably need to look at what resolution is being used when scanning documents. Files sizes grow geometrically as resolution increases. Your scanner probably defaults to at least 600dpi. But In most cases 150dpi is good enough, and you could try lower resolutions to see if they're good enough for you. Gray scale or black & white scans will also be much smaller than color.

Hello johannar, Thank you for reaching out! I checked-in with our Sage Support team and they advised me that when you run repair to correct the error, you are inadvertently also rolling back the update you just installed (which is why it wants to install again after you are done). Removing the program and reinstalling the full 2020.2 installation from the following Sage Knowledgebase article will resolve the issue: Download Sage 50—U.S. Edition 2020 Full Product .

Forum Post: Adding OCR Scan line with Check Digit to Invoice Print Templates
I need to add an OCR scan line with a check digit to our monthly invoices so that I can have the data scanned by a lockbox service. I am wondering if anyone has any experience either adding a check digit to an invoice template OR alternatively I am thinking I can extract the necessary invoice data and conduct printing external to Peachtree. Any tips or advice would be very appreciated. I do not currently have any experience using Peachtree, but I have attempted to research this online without much success. I believe I can extract invoice data, but not entirely sure where to start. TIA.

Forum Post: Long Term Liability (PPP Loan) Showing on Aged Payables Report.
I set-up our PPP loan in Sage, following both the PPP and the Record and Track a Loan the directions from Sage, but the Long Term Liability is showing up on our Aged Payables Report. When I double-click the (now past due) transaction on the report the Receive Money window loads from when the funds were received. The loan's GL Type is Long Term Liability. I have set up loans before and never had this issue, how do I get the funds removed from the AP Report?

I believe attachments are the source of the huge backup. When I go into our company folder and look into the Attachments folder, its 40gb's. I will deploy better scanning protocols going forward. Is there anything I can do for our current situation to reduce our backup size?

Forum Post: RE: Huge backups - how to trim?
The only way would be to get rid of the attachments. Your choices are to go through each transaction deleting the attachments and replacing them with smaller files, or just wipe out all of your attachments at once. If you wipe out all attachments then you would have to go back and manually attach new smaller files unless you can live with losing those attachments. The procedure from the knowledgebase to wipe out all attachments is: Make a backup of you data. See Article ID 10264: How to make a backup in Related Resources. Find your company data location. See Article ID 10199: How to locate company directories in Related Resources. Close Sage 50 . Browse to your company data location. Rename ATTCHMNT.DAT to OldATTCHMNT.dat Note : Depending on your computer settings you may not see the .dat extension of the file. Rename ATMNTBDL.DAT to OldATMNTBDL.dat Remove the folder ATTACHMENTS from the directory. If confident that the attachments will never be needed associated, the Attachments directory can be deleted. Re-open your company in Sage 50. You will receive the following message: Could not find file . Do you want to create a brand new, empty file? Referencing Attchmnt.dat and ATMNTBDL.dat. Select Yes. Confirm the attachments are no longer present on transactions. The only other thing I can think of is to leave the attachments as they are but not include them in your Sage 50 backup. If the backups you do from Sage 50 are your only backup that would be a significant risk, but still better than no backup at all. If you have another system wide backup that includes your Sage 50 data, then using the Sage 50 backup without attachments might be an acceptable compromise.

Search & Replace
I often copy a large GJE (approx. 100 lines) that contains the same text requiring a modification to text within each line. The text being modified is exactly the same and is replaced with new text that is also exactly the same. Would be great of a find & replace option was available.

Upon further examination, I have found out that the error does not persist in the server pc where the data is located, just computers trying to access it through a mapped drive. Also the administrator account receives no problems whatsoever on any computer as I've tested. The problem still persists but I think it is safe to say my files are fine and there is no virus.

Remittance info
Hi all, when printing out a remittance, the printout does not include the Ex Ref, this is usually (for us) the suppliers invoice number. I have tried to include this into my report design but cannot seem to achieve the result I need. We have a few suppliers who insist on this being on the remittance and hold the money on account as they cannot marry up the payments. The Ref field is used for our Filing Reference and we do not want to change that. How can I include the supplier’s invoice ExRef into my remittance advise? Many thanks in advance Karen

Change non-stock part to stock part
Often times we initially have non-stocking parts since they do not sell often. As time goes by, we may want to change it to a stocking part. The only way to do this now is to change the ID or something like that, but you lose the reporting information associated with that product. Please have a way to change a non-stock part into a stock part. Thank you.

Employee Count on Payroll Report and Employee List Report
I'd like to see a couple of changes relating to Payroll reports for employee counts. First I need an employee count on the payroll register especially when I ask for Show Totals Only or sort out a specific department for the report. We have a PPPL loan which asks for an employee count each week of payroll. Plus I have to report to Department of Labor, our employee count on the 12th of each month. And the Active Employee list with count changed to allow for a particular day instead of today only. Showing the employee list for a specific date or some way of knowing how many employees at any given time period. Thank you for your consideration.
