Its specifically in the web portal, not the desktop or the workspaces. The web portal is the new user interface for Sage 200, accessible via a browser and will be the replacement for the desktop screens. To access the web portal, simply select the cog on the top of your menu, and choose the option for the web portal. Log in and if you browse through the currently available screens you will see that the commas have been implemented per this idea.
My company upgraded to Sage 200 v2023 R1 in June 2023 and we don't see the balances with the separator despite claiming that this is fixed in version 2023 R1.
I'd previously added idea S200UK-I-2509 which has merged into this one. Why does it say delivered when it hasn't been? We still don't see any difference.
I was hoping for the following to display in a more user-friendly way:
Sales Ledger > Customer List > Balance column
Purchase Ledger > Supplier List > Balance column
Nominal Ledger > Nominal List > Account Balance column
Nominal Ledger > Fixed Asset List > Net Book Value column
Cash Book > Bank Account List > Balance & Balance in Account Currency columns
Stock Control > Stock List > Standard Cost, Actual Quantity, Sales Price columns
Invoicing > Invoicing List > Invoiced Net Value, Invoiced Tax Value & Total Gross Value columns
Sales Order Processing > Sales Order List > Amount column
Purchase Order Processing > Purchase Order List > Amount, Total Net Value & Total VAT Value column
Project Accounting > Project List > Committed Cost, Total Cost, Budget Cost Value, Total Revenue, Potential Revenue, Budget Revenue Value & Total Profit columns.
It doesn't seem to matter whether I use the workspace either. I've attached screenshots from the customer list from sales ledger and the project list from project accounting. All of the columns with balances still don't show the thousand separator, even on the workspace. Is the workspace and the "web portal" one and the same? If so, it still doesn't appear to have been changed.
It's all good having this on webscreens but what if they want to print a report or save as PDF to someone who does not have access to Sage or Webscreens? Can the reports in report designer across the board not have a default comma separator. I have another customer asking the same thing.
Particularly as they deal heavily in foreign currencies and some of them £1 = 190,000 ruppees or whatever so the numbers can get large really quickly.
When will Sage be putting commas into long numbers to separate million and thousands. Working form home on a small laptop screen is pretty hard to tell apart 600402 from 6000402, etc. Thanks, Gamal, FD in Glasgow
This is one the most common requests/complaints from users over many years. In the words of one recent comment, it is driving the user crazy. There have large transaction/balance amounts and it difficult to read the number quickly. Reports can be ...
Would be better to show numbers with commas on all screens in the currency of the account So 6896696.50 Would be easier to read if it showed as £6,896,696.50
As the title says on all reports for the default thousand separator to be a comma. Always have to change this for customers.

Comma separator
Merged
It would be great to get a comma separator on the nominal ledger (and others). Trying to squint to see whether a figure is e.g. £32000000 or £3200000 is very difficult when a simple comma can make all the diff,erence. £32,000,000 compared to £3,20...
Could balances be displayed with thousand separator please?

Would it be possible for values or balances to be displayed with the thousand separator or there be a setting added potentially in the preferences so that people have the choice whether to display things this way or not. It would be very helpful. ...

Hi David, if you want to comma's on reports that a different idea, please can I ask you to log it separately and then it can be voted on as required.
In terms of the web screens, these will be the replacement for the desktop so ultimately users will have access to these.

Sage 200 Web Portal displays values with thousand commas. As we continue to build out the Web Portal, more forms will give this benefit.
