Error 10001 - Failed to create sales order or invoice - can't connect to Sage

The order number specified in the message could not be imported to Sage because Woosage50 could not connect to Sage. If the order number is shown as [order_number] then this error has occured at the start of the order processing cycle and affects all orders. The exception detail may provided more information as to the reason.

This may be a temporary error caused by contention for Sage access, so if other orders are being processed by Woosage try changing the Export Status to Pending and Woosage will attempt to process the order on the next cycle. If the error reoccurs then it is likely to be a permanent error, which can be due to any of the following reasons:
  1. The Sage data has been moved or the data path has changed.
    1. RESOLUTION: amend the Sage data path in Woosage50 Settings>Sage 
  2. The Woosage user is already logged in to Sage, which sometime happens if Sage crashes while Woosage50 is connected.
    1. RESOLUTION: Check the Sage user list and if the Woosage50 user (normally called woosage) is showing force it off. You will need to login to Sage as Manager to do this.
  3. Sage is in exclusive mode. When Sage is running certain processes, such as period end or back-up, it requires exclusive use of the Sage data and won't allow Woosage50 to connect.
    1. RESOLUTION: change the Export Status to Pending and Woosage will attempt to process the order on the next cycle.
