TLS is a security protocol that creates encryption paths over computer networks to help ensure that online communications and information cannot be intercepted.

If you are using a version of Sage 300 that does not utilize TLS 1.2, an update or upgrade will be required to prevent a disruption in the use of your software.

Sage will end support of Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 and 1.1 for online communications by end of September 2023.

Regulatory standards have increasingly required the adoption of TLS 1.2 and the subsequent depreciation of TLS 1.0 and 1.1 due to known security risks.

Sage 300 versions 2018 PU7, 2019 PU5, 2020 PU3 and newer versions support TLS 1.2.

If you do not update or upgrade your software, you will begin receiving warning messages when accessing Sage 300 due to the inability to communicate with Sage servers.

Your software will revert to read-only mode and restrict access after a grace period of approximately 45 days. Action is required by September 2023.
