Recompile Menus in Sage 100
Description
Cause
Resolution

Before you begin

CAUTION:

Running SY_Menu_UI and selecting Reset resets menus to their default settings.

 
A reset performs the following actions:
  • Resets menus to match data stored in the SY_MenuDefault file.
  • Removes custom reports from menus. Re-add them manually.
  • Resets manual changes in the MNUMOD.TXT file.
  • Restores menus to factory settings, similar to resetting an electronic device.
If custom programming added menu entries and stored them in SY_MenuDefault, those entries remain available. Otherwise, the reset removes them and you must add them again.

Version 4.20 and later

  1. Click File, Run.
  2. Enter SY_MENU_UI.
  3. Click OK.
  4. Click Accept.
  5. Close the Menu Maintenance window.
  6. Exit and restart Sage 100 if the menus don't update.

NOTE:

In version 4.20, the progress bar doesn't appear immediately after you click Accept.

 

Version 4.00 through 4.10

  1. Click File, Run.
  2. Enter SYZCON.
  3. Click OK.
  4. At the prompt, enter each line and press Enter after each one:

->menus=new("sy_menu_svc",%sys_ss)
->? menus'compilemenu()
->drop object menus
->bye
