Starship 12 for Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 – Starship Link 2.0 Update

By Wayne Schulz • February 17th, 2012

This information is mostly old hat for consultants and users who have used Starship for a while. I thought it might be useful to post as a reminder as I have a customer on Sage  100 ERP (Formerly Sage ERP MAS 90) v4.30 who is looking at upgrading to Sage 100 ERP  4.5.

This reply from V-Technologies lists out the version information as well a confirmation that they’ve released a Starship Link v2.0 with some new features.

You may remember that last year V-Technologies (the publisher of Starship) ceased being affiliated with Sage as an Endorsed solution (or whatever the marketing speak of the day is). Thinking that they’d be able to sell directly (and keep the entire nut) the company waved goodbye to Sage and since  has gone direct to a third party (we hear it’s SWK out of NJ) to create Starship Link 2.0.

Here’s the info on Starship 12 as well as two links to some pre-installation documents that V-Technologies will ask you to complete if you are installing an upgrade:

 

 

StarShip v12 is compatible with v4.3 and 4.5. I am also providing some information regarding v4.5 below.

We have a new StarShip Link 2.0 that has many enhancements over the older StarShip Link that is available for Sage MAS 90/200 v4.5. We also have our BOI Direct Interface for MAS v4.5.

1. BOI – this is our direct interface that accesses the shipping data from outside of Shipping Data Entry and is available for $500.00.

2. StarShip Link 2.0 – this is our new interface that provides the same workflow as what you are familiar with now with the original StarShip Link and is available at no extra cost. In addition, we’ve enhanced the interface to include the following:

  • Line item integration – retrieves item info to further automate international and LTL shipments
  • Field mapping optimization – an easy-to-use interface provides access to modify the default set of field maps and translations
  • Access to user-defined fields – from within this utility
  • Scale integration from Shipping Data Entry

V-Technologies Install service is $695, covers the server and 2 workstations. Prior to the install, you will need to fill out documentation, and faxed it back to 866-478-4922.

Once payment is received and documents, a Technical Team member will contact you and go over any additional questions, and set this appointment.
