How to change browser on Sage 50?

SUGGESTED
Posted By

I am trying to link credit cards details to a customer profile.

The problem I encounter is Sage 50 telling me I need service plan that allows credit card payments. After the message there's a blue Hyperlink "Renew my plan". Clicking the link, Sage 50 automatically opens IE web browser which since April 2022 is no longer supported.

I have tried uninstalling IE which broke the link and made it unclickable.

I have tried setting my default browser to multiple different browsers with no effect Sage still tries to use IE.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Jonathan, thanks for reaching out.

    Which version year of Sage 50 are you using? The link in Sage 50, did launch for me in my default browser.

    Hi Erzsi

    This has been an issue for a long time now with a few links in the program.  I use Chrome as my default browser.  I just opened my dummy file in 2022.2 opened a customer ledger and clicked on the What is a merchant account? link.  It opened the help.  So I clicked on Open a merchant account with Paya and got the following image.

    If I click on the Home Screen Help menu, and either Support, Knowledgebase, or Online Community or Sage University, then I get Chrome.  Anything on the Services menu gives me Chrome without any problems.  There are just a few links that still go back to the old browser.

    Hi Richard, checked on this with the team who advised that Sage 50 has a dependency on IE - which is being removed in 2023. Hopefully, when clicking on items in the Services menu of Sage 50's home screen in the interim you get the option of which browser to use? Myself and another colleague do.
