Important Information Regarding Sage Payroll

As it is almost the end of the tax year, Sage will be sending out year end packs to Sage Payroll customers with a SageCover contract throughout March. This means that you can complete your year end and begin organising the new tax year.

When you receive the package you must install the update as soon as possible. This means that you can start processing payroll for the new tax year before year end. Ensure that you are using one of the following:

· Sage 50 Payroll 2011 v17.00
· Sage 50 Payroll 2010 v16.01, v16.03
· Sage 50 Payroll 2009 v15.04, v15.06
· Sage 50 Payroll 2008 v14.07, v14.09
· Sage 50 Payroll 2007 v13.10, v13.12
· Sage Payroll v12.13, v12.15
· Sage Payroll v11.16, v.11.18

Sage Payroll v11 will be coming to an end very soon and it will no longer be supported after 5th April 2011. If you are using this version you will not receive a year end pack but you will be able to download a year end guide on Sage’s website throughout March.
