What’s New in Version 19.3?

Yes, the current version of Sage 100 Contractor – 2014 is version 19.3!  Its availability was announced in mid-June by email.  There were several enhancements in this version, but a few that are particularly worth noting are:
Integration with Sage Payment Solutions - For users that process credit card payments from customers, the program now connects with Sage Payment Solutions to provide seamless processing of credit card payments from customers with a cost-effective merchant card service provider. Sage Payment Solutions can also enhance collections by generating ACH virtual check payments.  All customer data is safely stored in compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) – an important necessity.
Expanded State Certified Payroll Reports - For users that must supply certified payroll reports to State Labor Departments, the program’s integration with Aatrix now prepares and, where available, e-files state certified payroll reports in all 49 states that have their own reporting requirement. 
Drag and Drop Files and Shortcuts on Your Sage 100 Contractor Desktop - I think this is an underappreciated enhancement that can benefit most users.  Are you tired of having to jump out of Sage 100 Contractor to locate and open a spreadsheet, document or folder while working in the program? Now users can drag and drop those files and shortcuts right onto your Sage 100 Contractor desktop and ease that process. 

The program help system and your favorite Certified Consultant are available for your assistance with these new features.
