Prerequisites

Prerequisites

Before you start, ensure you have:

• Sage 100 North America: A supported version installed.
• Destination database: A target database, preferably matching your Sage 100 NA database collation.
• DataSync: A supported version installed.
• Installation package: The latest package downloaded from ShareFile.

Installation scenarios

Choose the path that matches your environment:

Scenario	Description	When to choose
Direct production database access	All configuration is performed in Nectari, connecting directly to your live production Sage 100 NA Premium database.	For a small or single-company setup needing only light, real-time reporting.
Via replicated data warehouse	Production data is replicated to a data warehouse using DataSync. The template then reads from the warehouse.	For many users or frequent/complex reporting needs, to avoid slowing the main Sage 100 NA database.
Consolidated	Combines real-time access and DataSync replication using consolidation for central, multi-company reporting.	For organizations managing multiple Sage 100 NA Premium companies needing combined or group reporting.
Nectari Cloud	Data is synced to the Cloud via DataSync. The template connects to Cloud-hosted data warehouse. Credentials are provided after cloud provisioning is complete.	For distributed teams or those preferring no local server maintenance.
