ACCPAC International does not authorize their Business Partners to include PTF's on our web sites, but you may use this page to check your versions. You may email me to request any PTF's that you require. For example, notice that Accounts Payable has the numbers 970315, which would represent a patch file dated 3/15/97. Compare these numbers to the numbers in the tables below. Contact us if you need to receive the current files.
