Before you begin

Gather the following information:

• Total Third-Party Sick Pay the employee received.
• Employer Social Security tax liability.
• Employer Medicare tax liability.

Set up Third-Party Sick Pay

Sage BusinessWorks doesn't include a Payroll option for recording contributions to a sick pay plan.

1. Review ThirdPartySickPay.pdf for setup and processing instructions.
2. Follow the applicable IRS guidelines when entering Third-Party Sick Pay.
3. Verify all payroll and tax amounts before completing year-end tax forms.

Additional information

The available training video explains the same general process, but some screens and form examples have changed.

Use ThirdPartySickPay.pdf for current Sage BusinessWorks screens, forms, and procedures.
