Cause
Resolution

Effective March 2018, Sage 100c was renamed to Sage 100cloud due to "cloud-connected" components available. Older documentation still refers to Sage 100c rather than Sage 100cloud.

The "What's New: Sage 100 2016" document released to partners and customers has the following information (verbatim):

  • What is Sage 100c?
    Sage 100c offers you all the 2016 release enhancements plus a modernized user interface, designed to shorten your learning curve. It provides improved navigation, customizable desktop themes, and more:
