You can use File Tools to rename the new.prt file if:

• All the time records in the new file have a status of New check or Processed
• You need to start over and clear all unposted time records (Example: you imported time twice)

We don't recommend that you rename the new file if you did an of the following processes:

• Printed checks
• Recorded manual checks
• Generated direct deposits
• Generated Accruals
• Entered time via Service Management

Renaming a new.prt with checks which have been printed or accrued will cause out of balance issues with CM, JC and GL. We recommend you void the checks or accrued time before renaming the new file. See steps to void a Payroll check or direct deposit.

If you rename a file that contains accrued time, generated direct deposits, or printed checks, you must restore the file. Post and void the checks before renaming the file. If you cannot locate the renamed file or if you deleted the file, the resolution can include a chargeable file fix. Contact Sage Support for assistance.
