What is Remote Data Access?

How to use Remote Data Access (RDA) to run your Sage 50 Accounts remotely.

How it works

The cloud securely shares your company data, allowing RDA users to connect from their own computers with Sage 50 Accounts installed. Your server or computer still stores your data, not the cloud.  

---

When to use 

Use RDA when working away from your main location, like the office, or when working from home.

---

RDA or network? 

If everyone works in the same location, such as the office with computers on the same network, use your network instead of RDA.
