Run Compatibility Check
Some of the information that you can enter for an operation can be used in the Bill of Materials module but cannot be used in the Estimating, Planning and Works Orders modules.
If you are using the Bill of Materials module only and plan to install all Manufacturing modules, use this option to check any compatibility issues you will have before installing Manufacturing.
Note: If you are using all Manufacturing modules, you can view warnings when you encounter them, if you select the Perform Compatibility Checks option in the System Settings Environment tab.

The Sage 200 Manufacturing module is now retired, from the Sage 200 Professional 2025 R2 release. We've retained the product help here for customers still using Manufacturing with older versions of Sage 200.
As the module is now retired there is no support from Sage. You can find out more about support in our product lifecycle (opens in a new tab). Please speak to your Sage Business Partner to find out more.
