Note: This requires use of the Custom Office module application (also known as Customizer). Not all installations of Sage 100 include this module.

Note: This is considered customization. Using the Custom Office application module requires knowledge and familiarity. Sage 100 Customer Support does not assist in creating customizations and may not be able to troubleshoot or resolve errors or issues that may arise from customizations (this also applies to custom scripts). If you encounter an error or issue, you may have to delete or remove the customization and start over. Therefore, you may want to get assistance from your local Sage business partner or a qualified consultant. There is also Customizer training available on Sage University (www.sageu.com).

Consider one of the options suggested in the error message:

Reset the customized subpanel:

  • Edit this panel in Customizer. On the toolbar, click the Panel Header Definition button. In the Panel Header Definition window, click Reset to reset the panel back to Sage 100 ERP defaults.

Delete the main panel and associated subpanels:

  • In the Customizer Selection window, select the main panel (named "DMAIN" or "DMAINW", for example) and click Delete. The parent panel and all its subpanels are erased.
