Just upgraded from version 16.03 or thereabouts (not really sure but must be at least 6 - 8 months old) and noticed that all my non-inventory items account codes have gone reverted to the default. I’ll explain - say I have an item called widgets - the default account code for these is “Sales - Widg…

First, once you have used a data file with a newer version, you should never use it with an older version, as newer versions sometimes convert the data structure to accommodate new features. There is no source for older versions of the program unless you saved it when you updated. All versions of Ma…

Thank you so much Tut . . that answers my question brilliantly. I grant you that what I was doing is unorthodox, my business was very much set up on the fly and it was a workaround that I set up to achieve an end. Now that I understand the way that sales quotes operate, I can review my procedur…

@Jaghire , as I said earlier, there is no source for outdated versions of Manager. Nor should you need them, as any version of Manager can call and use a data file from an earlier version. That is what I meant in my first response about backwards compatibility. But trouble will arise if you try to im…

Thanks Tut, No the backup file was made in version 16.3.something so I am hoping that I can reload it in that version. Somewhere someone must have earlier versions. . . surely. I take what you are saying in terms of my procedures but I would hope that I can work with the procedures until the e…
