Resolution
Steps for processing the year-end payroll and the general ledger tasks
▼2. Install the Year-End Update. You can install the year-end tax update anytime. It doesn't need to align with your payroll processing schedule or the effective date of income tax withholding tables.
Previously, you had to install updates only after completing your last payroll for the old year and before starting the first payroll for the new year. This required careful coordination and often disrupted your workflow.
What's new in version 27.3
With version 27.3, Sage 100 Contractor retains both the old and new tax tables. It automatically applies the correct table for each payroll run based on:
- The effective date of the new table
- The payroll check date
How it works
- Install the year-end tax update.
- Process payroll as usual without adjusting your schedule.
- The system applies the correct tax table for each payroll run.
▼6. Advance the posting period. - If your fiscal year-end is 12/31, change your posting from period 12 to period 1 with 1-6 Period/Fiscal Year Management
- Repair any audit errors
