End of Mainstream support for Sage Line 100

Sage has announced that their accounting solution Sage Line 100 will reach its 'End of Mainstream Support' on 30th September 2012.

Sage currently offers full Mainstream Support for Sage Line 100, via SALP or Sagecover, which includes legislative software updates for customers. However, from 30th September 2012, the type of support offered will change. Effective from this date, Sage will move into a phase of Extended Support meaning whilst Sage will still provide technical support, enable strings and the facility for existing customers to add users or modules to their system, they’ll stop producing software updates related to Sage Line 100 and will no longer guarantee that Sage Line 100 will be legislatively compliant.

The table below shows the summary of changes that Sage will be introducing:

	Mainstream Support to 30th September 2012	Extended Support from October 2012
