Connecting to Sage 50 UK

All of the tasks in the Sage 50 UK connector require a connection to a Sage 50 company, so you will need to create a connection with the type 'Sage 50 UK'. See Managing Connections for instructions on creating a new connection. You will see a screen like the one below, requesting your Sage 50 details:

Enter your Sage 50 details as described below, then click 'Finish' to create the connection.

Alternatively, if your company does not appear in the list you can select the "Use manual data path" option and enter the location of your data manually.
