With the introduction of Automatic Updates, Sage software accesses web-based resources more than ever before. It's likely that such requests pass through proxy servers.
You can enter proxy server settings in your Sage software, on the menu bar click Tools then click Internet Options then Network Settings.
We recommend using the browser settings, although you can enter proxy settings in this window. If required, your IT support will undertake this task.
Firewall and antivirus software can interfere with the download and installation of software updates and other Sage services, for example Sage Remote Data Access. You should add the following URLs to Windows trusted sites (internet options > Security > Trusted Sites).
To minimise any issues, you can configure your firewall and antivirus software to permit access to the following URLs.
