Features

 

    Extender Edition Guide

    Minimum requirements

    Extender 2020 requires Sage 300 2020, and operates with 3rd party modules written in the Sage 300 SDK. Notes functionality requires Orchid Notes. Orchid User licences are required to access Extender Workflow functionality or to access Extender Logs via screen icons.

    Where scripting is required, Python is installed as part of Extender. If you have another version of Python installed it has no effect on Extender - Extender will use its own version. (Python is a widely used, general-purpose, high-level, open-source scripting language).

    What do our clients think?

    "I am VERY, VERY happy with the results...Having now used Extender as an audit logger, UI control tool, and Custom Table tool it really is the bomb!"

    IAN COOK, KERR CONSULTING, THE WOODLANDS, TEXAS, USA

    "Truly, my mind is overflowing with all of the possibilities of the interplay between Extender and Notes. This new relationship between them feels like such a game-changer! Sincerest kudos to you and your team - both of these modules are rapidly becoming 'must-quote' for me on new sales as it’s turning so many previous 'no's into 'yes's!"

    DAVID GELULA, GELULA CONSULTING, ILLINOIS, USA

    "Thanks again for introducing me to Orchid Extender…that’s quite an incredible product you have there!"

    SCOTT DAVIES, EQUATION TECHNOLOGIES, ENCINATAS, CA, USA

    "Orchid's Extender, Info-Explorer and Information Manager Suite add-ons have taken Sage 300 to the next level. It's like Sage 300 on steroids!"

    NKOSIYABO SIBANDA, CCMA (THE COMMISSION FOR CONCILIATION, MEDIATION & ARBITRATION), SOUTH AFRICA

    “Orchid Extender empowered me to develop simple Sage 300 customizations that would otherwise have needed to go to our development team.  With only a basic knowledge of Python, and almost no exposure to Sage 300 SDK, I was able to implement on screen validations that were very important for my customer, but not available out of the box.”
