Important. If the website is not running the latest version of the Woosage50 Plugin (see below for release folder location)  we recommend updating it, as the installed version of the plugin may be incompatible with the latest version of the service.  The Woosage50 Plugin can be updated as described in the article Updating the Woosage50 Plugin (opens in a new tab).

Note: If you have not already updated to the 64-bit version of Sage we recommend doing so, as new features are now only being added to the 64-bit versionof Woosage.
