If you Sage data resides on a server it may be require a dedicated account with specific permissions, rather than using the local system account, and this is usually setup when Woosage is installed (see this article)

Open the Services application from the Windows search bar. Alternatively, press CTRL-ALT-DEL, select Task Manager then Services tab, find the WoosageService, right-click and select Open Services.

Locate the WoosageService and double-click, then select the Log On tab. Select This account and change the logon password. Then click OK and Start the service.
