Troubleshooting Sage 300 ERP Payroll

Posted by Kevin Yu on Wed, Jan 14, 2015

I ran across an interesting issue I had not seen before when working with a customer’s Sage 300 ERP payroll last week. We found one pay period where employee “Bob” had a check amount of $1,500 that did not match their payroll register details. Bob’s payroll details usually included five earning details, one for each day of the week, as well as deductions and tax details. In this case, the report was only showing one earning detail for $400 and no deductions or taxes. It was clear that details were missing from this report.

The first thing I tried was running a data integrity check with the fix minor errors box checked. When that finished running, I checked the check amounts and payroll register details again, and the numbers now matched, but it actually changed the historical check amount to $400 to match the inaccurate payroll register report.

Five Things to Look for in a Payroll Processor

Posted by Brian Terrell on Thu, Jun 12, 2014

According to the National Small Business Association (NSBA), one in four small businesses that process payroll internally spend more than six hours per month on payroll. That’s at least 72 hours per year! Many times, though, small- and medium-sized business (SMB) owners are responsible for processing payroll. The function of payroll is not just issuing checks; it includes keeping up with commission, changes in personnel, and tax requirements. All of these “extra items,” which are integral for businesses, consume not only valuable time but also key company resources.
