Getting Deductions on Paychecks

Problem

How do you put deductions on paychecks in Goldenseal payroll software?
Wants to show withholding taxes on pay checks.

Diagnosis

Have them go to File-- Print Forms, and check the forms that are available under Checking Transactions.

If it shows Paycheck in the list, use that. Problem solved.

If they don't see it, they must have an earlier version of our construction payroll software (we added paycheck deductions in late 2001 or version 1.07 approximately.)

Encourage them to update to the latest (it was a free update), but if they need it now, the workaround is below.

ANOTHER POSSIBILITY: They may have customized the paycheck form and deleted the tables. If so, have them revert the paycheck layout (Options--Custom Layout-- Printed Forms, go to the paycheck layout, choose Revert to Original from the File menu).

Solution

If EARLIER version:

1. Print paycheck without deductions.
2. Open the payroll records (can do a find for today's date).
3. Choose Print Forms from the File menu, and print Pay Stubs (or something like that)

If CURRENT version:

File--Print Forms, choose Checking Transactions, then Paycheck as form type.
