• Once the connections have been set up successfully, you can run the Sage50_ETL.exe file by double clicking. This will copy the Sage 50 data across into the SQL Server database and give you a notification when complete

  

• The duration of the process varies dependent on the volume of data and the hardware infrastructure

• If there are any errors, they will be shown on screen and also an error log file is created in the same directory called:  Sage50DataErrorsLog.txt

Please see the troubleshooting section for help with potential errors.

Setting up a scheduled ETL process

•  Using the Windows Task Scheduler, the Sage50_ETL.exe can be scheduled to run at a frequency of your choosing or ran manually. Please consider the length of the process when setting the frequency of your schedule

• Within the preconfigured dashboard there is a category called Data Update that provides information on when the data was last updated
