When configuring a MAS ledger or performing an opening review in Client Accounting, the list of MAS ledgers may appear blank with the error "MAS application not found" and/or "Could not display ledger list. Unable to load MAS. Failed to locate necessary files".

This ocurrs when the workstation cannot read the location for your list of MAS ledgers.

Run through the following steps to resolve these issues.

1. Check the MAS program files

Open Windows Explorer or Computer and navigate to X:\S6client folder. Where X:\ is the location of the S6client folder. The files and folders for this location appear.
Highlight both the DS6MP900 file and the DS6MF100 file then right-click and select Copy. The files go into the Windows Clipboard.
Navigate to the X:\Sol64\ folder. Where X:\ is the location of the Sol64 folder. The files and folders for this location appear.
Right-click in this folder and select Paste. The MAS files are pasted into the Sol64 folder.

2. Run the MAS Integration workstation setup

Open Windows Explorer or Computer and navigate to X:\Sol64\Setup\MAS Integration\
Where X:\ is the location of the Sol64 folder. The files and folders for this location appear.
Double-click the MAS Integrator Setup.exe file. The installation wizard starts.

If you do not see the extension .exe, the file to run is setup and the file has the type of Application. For details regarding viewing file extensions refer to Viewing hidden files, folders and drives or enabling file extensions in Windows
Answer the questions as required as the wizard continues, then click Finish. The installation completes.

MYOB INTERNAL STAFF ONLY:

If the workstation setup does not rectify the error, check the following registry items:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MYOB\System Release\PATH
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MYOB\System Release\workstation\PATH

Ensure the location is correct for the Sol64 folder.

If the path is incorrect, edit the registry item to be the correct location for Sol64.
If the items are not there in the registry perform a System Release workstation setup for that workstation. For more information refer Installing System Release on a workstation

If the problem still exists rebuild the DS6OP010 file as follows:

1. Run the command X:\Sol64\SR EPEXPORT

2. Rename the existing DS6OP010 to DSOP010.cpt

3. Copy the X:\Sol64\S6\DZZOP010 into the X:\Sol64\ folder.

4. Rename the X:\Sol64\DZZOP010 to DS6OP010

5. Run the command X:\Sol64\SR EPIMPORT and select to continue.
