The Small Business Edition of Sage MAS 500 automatically installs the Microsoft Desktop Engine (MSDE) when using the Express Install feature. This database engine is added to the system when no other SQL Server edition is detected, so you do not need to purchase SQL Server separately. Only one edition of Microsoft SQL Server 2000 can reside on the operating system when using Sage MAS 500 Small Business Edition with MSDE.

The Sage MAS 500 edition you purchase can also be used with lower editions of SQL Server, but generally not with higher editions unless you upgrade the SQL Server edition with which you have licensed Sage MAS 500. For example, Sage MAS 500 Standard Edition with SQL Server Standard licensing can be used with SQL Server Standard edition and MSDE, but not SQL Server Enterprise edition. The Sage MAS 500 Standard Edition with the SQL Server Enterprise edition license can be run on this edition, as well as all lower editions of SQL Server. The Sage MAS 500 Small Business Edition is generally licensed for MSDE only.
