Sage SDO Activation

Sage SDO Activation

To allow Woosage to communicate with Sage an API, known as Sage Data Objects or SDO, needs to be activated within Sage, if not already activated for use with another 3rd party application.

Note: from v24.1 SDO is already activated, so it is no longer necessary to register the SDO.

If you are using an older version, then you must register the SDO using the MANAGER Sage logon credentials.

From the menu select Tools > Activation > Enable 3rd Party Integration

Enter the SDO serial number and activation key based on your version of Sage, then select Continue.

Sage Accounts v24
  • Serial number: SAGESDO
  • Activation key: ZHIEKPK

Sage Accounts v23
  • Serial number: SAGESDO
  • Activation key: RCYLSWK
