System Keys

Some Excelerator modules require Sage system keys to be set up. These must be entered in Sage by a Sage system administrator.

Some of these will be described under the help sections for the module. System keys relating to multiple modules are described below.

INTUSER

In some instances, Sage records the name of the Sage user who entered the batch.

As Excelerator does not log into Sage, there is no Sage username available to record against the batch.

Instead, Excelerator uses the value held in this system key as the user name.

CODVERSION

Excelerator has to be told if it is being used with Sage 500 version 6 or higher, or Sage 1000 2.1 or higher.

The system CODVERSION must be set in every Sage company being used and the Values are:

Project System Keys

Excelerator also has to be told about any Sage projects that have been activated in Sage.

Note, User should first check that Excelerator supports the project at Supported Projects.

As Excelerator cannot access Sage's project configuration, system keys need to be set to tell Excelerator which projects are activated.

These must be set in every Sage company.

The system keys are CODDA. For example CODDA0567, CODDA1484.

Some projects are mandatory in Sage 1000, and these projects will be activated by setting the CODVERSION to a value that indicates Sage 1000 is being used.

CODCOMPANY

Some standard Excelerator modules need to know the name of the current Sage company. (This is not available from the connection details.) In these cases, the system key CODCOMPANY must be set up on each of the Sage databases. It should hold the name of the company as entered in the Sage Working directories utility.
