Entering payroll advances
Important! If you are issuing a cash advance, Sage 100 Contractor still requires a cheque number to save the transaction. Enter a dummy cheque number.
To enter a payroll advance:
- Open 5-2-2 Payroll Records.
- In the Employee text box, enter the employee number.
- In the Period Start text box, enter the date when the payroll period begins.
- In the Period End text box, enter the date when the payroll period ends.
- In the Cheque Date text box, enter the date when the cheque is to be issued.
- In the Cheque# text box, type 0000.
When you print the cheque (using the 5-2-4 Payroll Cheques window), Sage 100 Contractor assigns the cheque number to the record.
If you have already issued the cheque, enter the cheque number in the Cheque# text box.
- In the Payroll Type list, click 5-Advance.
- In the Quarter text box, enter the payroll quarter.
- In the Province text box, enter the tax province.
- In the Advance text box, enter the amount of the payroll advance.
- Click File > Save.
Tip: Sage 100 Contractor assigns the advance status 2-Computed; you do not need to final-compute the record before printing the cheque.
